Last year, it became easy to suddenly question Anya Taylor Joy. It's not her skills as an actress. Most people who saw her last year Juliosa: Mad Max Saga Perhaps whenever she is on screen you will agree that she maintains the expressiveness of silent films and the intensity of action films. The problem was that few people were seduced to watch Juliosa To begin with, much less than a saw Mad Max: Fury Roadand the film features Charlize Theron in the role of Juliosa. Isn't Taylor Joy simply a big draw as big as Theron?
She probably isn't. Theron was in the film for 20 years with the first one. Juliosa The film came out, and this was also the year that Taylor Joy had broken through. witch. (It was released in 2015 in 2016. It premiered in Sundance in 2015.) However, anyone watching the film at home, whether by chance or a particular desire, can be enough Anya Taylor Joy. It seems I can't get it. when Juliosa When I hit Netflix, it was a mainstay on the film charts. Now it's being replaced menueven fewer titles, in front of Taylor Joy's face and the center of its thumbnail tiles. Maybe Netflix subscribers are particularly familiar with the success of the streaming miniseries Queen's Gambitshe played an incredible chess player. She branches off to another, less popular service this weekend with the premiere Canyon On Apple TV+. For most of the runtime, she is one of two people on the screen. The other is Miles Terror.
Canyon In time for Valentine's Day, it represents her stealth departure, especially as it is romance. She and Terror play elite black open type snipers recruited individually for matching posts in matching towers on either side of the mystical canyon. (Flying by helicopter, they certainly don't even know where they are stationed.) Their job is to film what they are about to come out. . However, the two launch friendship across the big gap, holding signs in a short message, holding up friendships in a way that will eventually lead their relationship to the next level. Taylor-Joy is stricter and less strict among the two snipers. She begins contact and considers her non-spirited coworker playfully. She is also a sniper who was allowed to tote totes in her record collection, but that may just be in the loose rules from the country that hired her (her accent is Eastern Europe). ).
In most of her other famous roles, Taylor Joy plays a combination of solitude or loneliness. Queen's Gambit It is based on her character being orphan and lonely. in JuliosaShe shares an obvious bond with one of her fellow rig drivers and is influenced by his end mise, but in line with the film's characteristics by action, they actually have less dialogue. , does not show much physical affection. Instead, their relationship boils beneath a steely surface. menu It seems like some of her most normal parts of her, but it involves a deceptive playfulness. She is featured as the girlfriend of a patient who accompany her man to an elite restaurant, but she is actually a call girl, and over the experience (and perhaps she might get killed in the process). That's what her teen movie was like Thoroughbredin Hitchcock's thriller, she plans to kill her stepfather. Her superhero movie was New mutantsshe wields a fiery sword and an average tongue. I'll go back a long way witchit is the isolation and alienation of her character, strictly from a religious family, and leads her.
So, Taylor Joy's most romantic role outside of Tart Jane Austen's adaptation is mystical and I'm sure Yeae Yeahs fans are enough to own the latest records on limited edition orange vinyl. It seems appropriate to be a deadly sniper. (Or maybe it just comes with the tower? The movie is unknown, but the needle drop that comes with it is perfect.) Her character's somewhat goofy backstory makes her seem like what happens Knowingly, she gives her grief over the planned suicide of her father, who was hit by cancer, during a year's mission in the canyon. It is thought of as hell, but it does the job of contributing to the impressive goth atmosphere that keeps her pain in check. The old trick of tough façades giving way works. When she takes such a simple taste for the implicit teller character, she feels a truly unspotted turn of story, even on flat.
Canyon Yes, Teller and Taylor Joy end up fighting a bundle of bundles of fantasy fantasies of sorts of action horror, but that's also in the fantasy of Roner, who doesn't have the friendship of finding a girl friend. there is. All her attention to his happiness can be given almost first. This should feel reductive for Taylor Joy, who emphasizes her impressive beauty. Those changing wigs! – Without turning her into a pinup girl at all. Some actresses have built great careers from romance and “female photos,” but romantic positioning seems to be an old (and gender official) meaning, with performers posing like dolls Sometimes I feel that way. Descriptor: “Girls want to be girlfriend, guys want to be with her.”
For all of Taylor-Joy's lonely and marginalized vibes, that reductive marketing may also be key to her appeal. Whether it's rough Juliosa's outfit, all the retro outfits she wears Last night in SohoOr a simple and cool leather jacket menuat least in the way that it seems curious and ambitious. On the romantic side, she seems like a cool girl that is very difficult to impress. Canyon Shamelessly (and effectively) misuse. Anya Taylor Joy may give away and play a disappointing single-career gal who finds love when she is least expecting it. But her gift as an actress is to make something outrageous Canyon It seems to be just as natural.
