NEW YORK TIMES – There’s nothing normal about making a “Mad Max” movie, and Anya Taylor-Joy knew that when she signed on to star in “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” the newest film in George Miller’s long-running action series.
“I wanted to be changed,” she said. “I wanted to be put in a situation in extremis where I would have no choice but to grow. And I got it.”
Trials by fire don’t burn much hotter than the conflagration that consumed “Mad Max: Fury Road” (2015), the most recent film in the franchise, which was one of the most infamously difficult productions in Hollywood history. In the works for nearly two decades, the movie was shut down several times by studio executives, who feared they were producing a big-budget boondoggle. And the constant clashes between Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, two of its stars, in the remote Namibian desert required outside intervention.
VARIETY – If you want to become a dystopian feminist warrior, you’re not going to get much sleep. That was one of the first things Anya Taylor-Joy learned on the set of George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” prequel “Furiosa.” Under heavy coats of makeup, shooting in the Australian winter when daylight was scarce, Taylor-Joy wished she could have stayed in bed at least through the crack of dawn. Instead, she’d rise up in the middle of the night, ready to do battle.
“I had the earliest call time of my life: 1:45 a.m.,” the 28-year-old actress says on a recent Los Angeles afternoon. “I’d be like, ‘I just wrapped! What do you mean?! It’s a mistake!’” Taylor-Joy recalls the painful mornings now with a gleeful theater-kid energy. She chronicled her entire transformation as Furiosa, and took photos of her various makeup tests. She flips through her phone to show me.
The Furiosa promo tour has officially started ! Anya Taylor-Joy and co-star Chris Hemsworth landed in Sydney, Australia to promote their movie. On May 01, they attended the media call and a new Entertainment Weekly photoshoot was released. You can read their interview here. Find all the pictures from yesterday in the gallery !
On November 01, Anya Taylor-Joy and The Menu co-star Nicholas Hoult attended the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Stories Exhibition In New York. She gave a small interview to W Magazine for the occasion, read it below. Enjoy!
W MAGAZINE – The evening before Anya Taylor-Joy attended the opening of Jaeger Le-Coultre’s Reverso Stories exhibition in New York City, she dressed up as the ginger crime-fighting cartoon character, Sam, from Totally Spies!. “We had two options,” she tells me the afternoon following Halloween—which saw the actress, Ivy Getty, and Quincey Jones pulling off a group costume for Getty’s party in NoHo. “It was either Totally Spies, or different versions of Jennifer Coolidge—with fake lips.” (For the record, Taylor-Joy was a big fan of the anime series when she was younger. “Whilst we were getting ready [for Halloween], we were playing some of the episodes in the background,” she adds.)
