Am I the only one who thought that all of the character that Anya choose to play is always a genius?

[@rids657]

yep, I'm working my way through all of her movies and just finished re-watching TQG - she's not only brilliant in every role she plays but she's also completely different. She doesn't so much play a character, she becomes them, I'm completely in awe of her outrageous talent

[@brandonday2494]

Yep, loved her in the Witch. She really just popped off the screen in that and then has a couple of the more memorable scenes in any recent movie I've seen at the end. Saw Emma, and liked her spikier, less likable to start with, take on the character. Really good to see her branching out well beyond suspense roles in 2020. The physical comedy in Emma was fantastic, and she really showed way more of her impressive range in that and then the QG. Great in Thoroughbreds and Split. Surprisingly chameleon-like considering the most memorable eyes possible. Smart gal. Seems great at picking scripts and finding the right projects and partners. She's got a lot of cool projects in the can already for 2021/2022.

[@latebloomer4445]

First saw her in split and loved her ever since

[@nekolyn1301]

I love her when I first saw her in Morgan and in Split and have been following almost all of her movies/series. Her acting takes my breath away. It feels powerful and versatile. She's gonna be awesome actress, the chameleon type like Natalie Portman/Jeniffer Lawrence/Emma Stone

[@michaellevesley3578]

There is an Oscar in her future. The films and The Queen's Gambit prove it. Every film, tv show is worth every minute.

I was watching all movies where she played in, starting from "The Witch" by the ending "Mutants" by Marvel. Idk why, but in my opinion she looks stunning, a synonym for her name is beauty. Sorry if u do not agree with that, but in my opinion it is truth. Everybody: doesn't waitin' for the 2 season, cuz the story was ended like says in a book Me: i am not among these guys
