Zack Sharf Digital News Director Anya Taylor-Joy said an interview with British GQ that she has often fought for her characters to express rage on screen. It turns out there have been several films where in the script her character is supposed to cry, but Taylor-Joy just didn’t think that was the right emotional beat. She decided to speak up for herself and successfully convinced her directors to let her character have more rage.
“I’ve developed a bit of a reputation for fighting for feminine rage, which is a strange thing, because I’m not promoting violence – but I am promoting women being seen as people,” Taylor-Joy told the publication. “We have reactions that are not always dainty or un-messy.” Taylor-Joy first fought for her character’s rage on her feature acting debut, Robert Eggers’ “The Witch.” It was written that her character, Thomasin, would cry during a scene in which she is dragged through her family’s farmyard after she’s accused of being an evil presence inside her home. Taylor-Joy couldn’t muster up the tears during each take.
“Eventually I said, ‘She’s angry; she’s fucking pissed. She’s been blamed time and time again, and she’s not doing anything. We have to stop with the crying,’” Taylor-Joy remembered telling Eggers.
The director approved. Taylor-Joy not only was able to rage during the scene, but also learned that speaking up for yourself on set can be the right thing to do. She’d do it again during the making of “The Menu” when the script called for her character to have a single tear rolling down her cheek when she discovers that her date has brought her to lavish private dinner with the intention of having her die.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Viggo Mortensen revealed in an interview with GQ UK magazine that he used Aragorn’s iconic sword Andúril from “Lord of the Rings” in his latest movie, “The Dead Don’t Hurt.” Mortensen wrote and directed the 19th century Western, in which he stars as a Danish immigrant separated from his love (Vicky Krieps) during the Civil War. For one fantasy sequence in the film, Mortensen asked his “Lord of the Rings” director Peter Jackson if he had his permission to use Aragorn’s sword again on screen. Mortensen played the character in Jackson’s original “Rings” trilogy and kept the sword after production wrapped.
Hunter Ingram SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers from “The Cottage,” the season finale of FX’s “The Veil,” now streaming on Hulu. Whoever says you can’t go home again has probably been watching “The Veil.” In the finale of FX’s espionage series, Imogen (Elisabeth Moss) reluctantly heads to the last place she ever wanted to be again –– the home of Michael Althorp (James Purefoy), her late father’s friend, her former lover/mentor and the kind of English rich man who can turn the tide of wars or start them. This mysterious man, who had so far only appeared in flashbacks, is Imogen’s only hope of getting new passports for Adilah (Yumna Marwan), from whom she is still trying to coax information about the looming ISIS bombing of a United States ship.

Carolyn Giardina If you’ve seen “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” and noticed an uncanny resemblance between child actor Alyla Browne, who plays the titular character as a child, and Anya Taylor-Joy, who assumes the role as the story skips ahead several years, you’re not alone. The reason, it seems, involved more than its skillful casting. Director George Miller additionally employed artificial intelligence in the making of his post-apocalyptic prequel to 2015’s “Mad Max: Fury Road,” which Warner Bros.

Since their beginnings in 1979, George Miller‘s hyper-jacked Mad Max movies with Mel Gibson had not received a single Oscar nomination, not even for Tina Turner’s great signature song “We Don’t Need Another Hero” in 1985’s Beyond Thunderdome. But then, 30 years later, when finally the fourth and Gibson-less edition appeared, the snooty Academy got on board and gave the newly regenerated Mad Max: Fury Road 10 nominations including for Best Picture and Director. It won six of them, virtually sweeping the crafts categories.
CANNES – At the very least, and no matter what your personal opinion of the end result, “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” is a reminder. A reminder to never, never, ever doubt the brilliance of George Miller’s cinematic eye.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” went wild for his latest high-octane action film, showering the movie with a six-minute standing ovation at Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday night. Taylor-Joy blew kisses into the camera as the clapping continued at the end of the credits, performing a theatrical bow. Hemsworth looked teary-eyed at the rapturous response.
Alex Ritman Alyla Browne may only be 14 years old, but in the short time she’s been acting she’s somehow managed to assemble one of the most ridiculously star-studded on-screen family trees. In Hulu’s “Nine Perfect Strangers,” she played Nicole Kidman’s daughter. In Amazon Studio’s “The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart,” she was Sigourney Weaver’s granddaughter.
