Anya Taylor-Joy left little to the imagination when she emerged in New York on Wednesday amid the publicity rounds for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
The 28-year-old plays the тιтle role in the origin story of Imperator Furiosa, the character first portrayed by Charlize Theron in Mad Max: Fury Road.
While dashing between media appearances in support of her new film, Anya has caught the eye with her eminently stylish ensembles.
However her latest look may have been her most head-turning yet – a skimpy backless cocktail dress that hugged her lithe figure.
Her saucy ensemble featured spaghetti straps down the back, with a weave so open that it hinted she had no underwear on.
The wine-colored dress was cut to emphasize her taut midriff and show off her statuesque legs as she pounded the pavement in the city that never sleeps.
Sweeping her signature platinum hair into a ponytail, she brought out her luminous complexion with a blood-red shade of lipstick.
Her latest outing comes after she confessed she had no driver’s license before she had to stunt-drive for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
‘They just threw me in the car and went you’re going to do this. I was like: “Okay,”‘ she said while being interviewed with her co-star Chris Hemsworth on Lorraine.
She noted how ‘fun’ it was ‘that the first thing I learned how to do in a car was’ the strenuous stunts she had to perform for the movie.
‘I have fallen in love with it, I want to get my normal driving license, I want to get my stunt driving license. It’s a really cool way to learn how to drive.’
Fury Road starred Charlize Theron as Furiosa, an avenging warrior who leads a tribe of women in a relentlessly macho, post-apocalyptic wasteland.
Now Anya’s new movie is on the verge of release, relaying the heartrending origin story that turns Furiosa into a hardened, ruthless killer.
Anya plays the тιтle role of Furiosa, starting off as a long-haired beauty who turns into the cropped-haired, warpainted bruiser that Fury Road fans will instantly recognize.
