Another day, another dress for Anya Taylor-Joy – who’s been hard at work promoting her new movie Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga – as she headed out into Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood on Wednesday.
The 28-year-old Golden Globe winner was headed to the Ed Sullivan Theater in Midtown in order to pre-tape her appearance on Wednesday night’s episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert alongside Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff.
It will mark Anya’s second time appearing on the CBS talk show, and she opted to wear a cleavage-boosting white dress.
Taylor-Joy – who relies on stylist Ryan Hastings – slipped her slim 5ft8in figure into the flirty frock, which featured spaghetti straps, a тιԍнт bodice, and a flowing knee-length skirt.
The Dune: Part Two actress resembled a ghost with her white stilettos heels and signature platinum-blonde locks down her back coiffed by hairstylist Gregory Russell.
Make-up artist Georgie Eisdell made sure Anya didn’t looked too washed out by applying a bit of bronze shadow on her distinctive wide-set brown eyes and a mauve lipstick on her pout.
Taylor-Joy ‘was really excited’ to portray Imperator Furiosa in George Miller’s $168M-budget post-apocalyptic prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, which hits US/UK theaters this Friday.
The Miami-born, Argentine, and English beauty ambitiously took over the role of the fierce war captain from Charlize Theron who starred in the critically-acclaimed 2015 film Mad Max: Fury Road which amᴀssed $380.4M at the global box office.
‘I never imagined in seeing Fury Road that I would have the opportunity to play one of the most iconic characters, and she is everything to me,’ Anya gushed to NBC News on Wednesday.
‘Something that Charlize did so beautifully was that she really tapped into the essence of the character. And so, rather than trying to pull specifically from her performance, I just felt if I tapped into the correct essence of the character that would get me there.’
Meanwhile, the 48-year-old Oscar winner told ET last year: ‘I met [Anya] years ago and I haven’t really been around her at a function or anything like that. I can’t think of a better actress. I think she’s going to be totally okay. Without talking to me, she’s going to be absolutely fine.’
Furiosa – also starring Chris Hemsworth, Alyla Browne, and Tom Burke – has already scored a ‘certified fresh’ 87% critic approval rating (out of 133 reviews) on Rotten Tomatoes.
