Anya Taylor-Joy on Possible Role Alongside Husband: 'It Has to Be the Right Script'

Anya Taylor-Joy, the renowned actress known for The Queen's Gambit, expressed her enthusiasm for acting alongside her husband, Malcolm McRae. However, she specifies that it would require the perfect script. This desire was revealed during an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE at the premiere of her new movie, "The Gorge," in Los Angeles on February 12. This is prepared by SSP.
Taylor-Joy, 28, and McRae, 30, who first confirmed their relationship in April 2021, tied the knot in New Orleans secretly a year later and celebrated another wedding in Venice, Italy, in October 2023. Describing her bond with McRae to British Vogue as a blend of "80 years old and 7 at the same time," Taylor-Joy appreciates their shared silence and mutual understanding.
"The Gorge," which premiered on Apple TV+ on Valentine’s Day, 2025, features Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller as operatives stationed on opposite sides of a mysterious gorge. As a new threat surfaces, they must work together to safeguard the world—an action-filled storyline that Taylor-Joy describes as "badass, surprising," and appealing to a wide audience. Other stars in this Apple Original Films thriller include Sigourney Weaver, Sope Dirisu, and William Houston. With prior successful projects like Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, The Menu, and The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Taylor-Joy continues to diversify her acting portfolio.
