Anya Taylor-Joy shows off knockout legs in electric blue ensemble – after dishing she was ‘thrown into a car’ for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga despite having NO driver’s license

Anya Taylor-Joy was a sight to behold when she showed up in New York this week amid her publicity rounds for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

The 28-year-old plays the title role in the origin story of Imperator Furiosa, the character first played by Charlize Theron in Mad Max: Fury Road.

While in between media appearances in support of her new film, Anya stood out with her ultra-stylish ensembles.

For her latest sighting, she selected a chic mini dress with a striking black and electric blue print that was vaguely reminiscent of leopard spots.

The outfit was cinched to emphasize her beautiful midriff and cut high enough to show off Anya’s statuesque legs as she stomped down the sidewalk.

She let loose her curtains of platinum blonde hair and sharpened her endearing elfin features with a touch of scarlet lipstick.

She dressed up with oversized sunglasses to match her blank ankle-strap heels, adding a touch of glitter to the look with a sparkly bracelet.

Her latest outing comes after she admitted she didn’t have a driver’s license before being assigned to stunt driving for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.

“They just threw me in the car and said you’re going to do this. I was like, ‘Okay,'” she said while being interviewed with her co-star Chris Hemsworth about Lorraine.

She noted how “fun” it was “that the first thing I learned to do in a car” were the strenuous stunts she had to perform for the film.

‘I fell in love with it, I want to get my normal driver’s license, I want to get my stunt driver’s license. It’s a really fun way to learn to drive.’

Fury Road stars Charlize Theron as Furiosa, an avenging warrior who leads a tribe of women in a brutally macho, post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Now Anya’s new film is about to be released, telling the heartbreaking origin story that turns Furiosa into a hardened, ruthless killer.

Dementus and his gang are then engaged in a conflict with another warlord named Immortan Joe (Lachy Hulme) – later the villain of Mad Max: Fury Road.

During the events of the prequel, Immortan Joe is seen developing an alliance with Furiosa, who comes into his service based on their common enemy.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, directed by George Miller, the mastermind behind the entire Mad Max franchise, debuted at Cannes last week.

The film received a warm reception at the festival, including a six-minute standing ovation and rave reviews of 86% on the website. Rotten tomatoes.

While promoting the film, which wraps on Friday, Anya recently revealed that a long 15-minute sequence took a whopping 78 days to film.

“We filmed it for 78 days, 78 days!” she shared on The One Show. ‘Yes. It’s called Stowaway. It was 100 percent the mountain we were all trying to climb.”
