MEXICO CITY.- Visiting Mexico City for a press conference on the film Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the actress Anya Taylor-Joy I didn’t think twice before saying where I wanted to go.
“I immediately went to Frida’s (Kahlo) house, I have wanted to visit for years and, yes, incredible,” he said in perfect espaol. The actress was also near the Palace of Fine Arts, where she posed for portraits.
Taylor-Joy was born in the United States and grew up in Great Britain, but her father is of Argentine origin and she spent her early years living in Buenos Aires. Her mother has Spanish roots.

Its next premiere is Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (Furiosa: From the Mad Max saga) that tells the story of the brave Furiosa, from her childhood until shortly before the beginning of the plot of Mad Max: Fury Road (Mad Max: Fury on the road), starring Charlize Theron. Both films add up to the dystopian saga of Mad Max, starring Mel Gibson, whose first film was released in 1979. George Miller remains as director in all of them.
“We started shooting this movie in a place called Broken Hill (Australia), and this is where the first Mad Max movie was shot and we also had a lot of people who had worked on all three movies,” Taylor said. Joy. “If you’re making a Mad Max movie you know it’s going to be really hard, but you’re going to love it, I think if it wasn’t hard I’d feel robbed (cheated) in some way.”
Although she was not afraid of doing stunts with motorcycles and cars, the actress confessed: “I still don’t have my driver’s license.” Taylor-Joy said she hasn’t filed it because she doesn’t have time. “I would love to have her. I want to get my stunt driver license because she knows more about that,” she said.
“I think this girl has an impossible hope that she can come home and that’s something that really affected me,” he said. “No matter how many times someone crushes you, get up, because at some point you’re going to win.”
Filming included stunts with hundreds of motorcycles, trucks and explosions, plus lots and lots of dirt.
“I love being covered in blood, I think because my first movie was The VVitch (The witch) So for me that’s what making movies is, you’re always dirty, you’re always covered in blood, for me it’s a lot of fun,” she said. At the end of the day she took: “a two-hour shower.”
“But I also think that at some point you stopped trying to clean yourself that way, because you thought, ‘Tomorrow they’re going to do it again, and again, and again.'”
Although not everything was as rough as she is used to. She wanted to shave her hair like Theron to play Furiosa: “but George saw my hair, fell in love and told me ‘we can’t do it to you’.”
