Anya Taylor-Joy Shows no Signs of Slowing in Her Momentum

Anya Taylor Joy had a five-year run that was unmatched by anyone else. Because of her distinctive looks and appearances in period dramas, she rose to be Hollywood’s “it-girl”. Last seen is Robert Egger’s “The Northman”, where she played Olga of Birch Forest, a sorceress who is also Prince Amleth’s love interest. Alexander Skarsgard plays her.

While Skarsgard is most likely the start of the movie, Taylor Joy has many notable roles. Her role as Gina Gray, the main character in Peaky Blinders’ final season, was a prominent one. She is most well-known for her role as Beth Harmon on The Queen’s Gambit. The series was a huge hit with Netflix and won 11 Primetime Emmys. Taylor-Joy also received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in Miniseries or Television Film.

There is still much work to be done. Taylor-Joy was recently in the news about her involvement in “Furiosa.” TaylorJoy will play the title character. Charlize Theron played the same role in George Miller’s 2015 Mad Max Fury Road.

“I have already begun to dream about Furiosa and she is coming in strong. I am so determined to work as hard as possible. Taylor-Joy said, “I always stated that I wanted a job that required me to give everything.”

Furiosa is a topic Taylor-Joy doesn’t mince words about. Variety spoke with Jenny Beavan, the movie’s costume designer. She said that Taylor-Joy wanted to shave her hair for the role. Although George Miller, the director, doesn’t want her to do so, the film is being delayed until May 2024. There’s still a chance.

Taylor-Joy is also known to be involved in four other projects. She will star in “Canterbury Glass,” a period drama by David O. Russell. In a rare role for her, Princess Peach will play the title role in a Super Mario Bros movie. It is expected to be released in Spring 2023.

Although there are some issues with the development, Robert Eggers plans to collaborate with Taylor-Joy to create a Nosferatu-themed film. Eggers stated that Taylor-Joy would star in the movie, despite the fact that the vampire film has “fallen apart” twice over the years. We can still count on Taylor-Joy’s partnership with Robert Eggers for whatever Robert Eggers is doing next.
