Watch Anya Taylor-Joy Rap to Eminem’s Lose Yourself in New Video
Anya Taylor-Joy raps along to Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” in a new video shared to her social media. Taylor-Joy, who has gained an immense following in recent years, is starring in a couple buzzy upcoming 2022 films. These include Amsterdam, a star-studded historical drama from director David O. Russell, and horror-comedy The Menu, which she stars in opposite Ralph Fiennes.
At just 26 years old, Taylor-Joy may have one of the fastest-growing careers in Hollywood. Horror fans likely recognize her from the earlier days in her career, wherein she acted in The Witch and Split. She rose to greater prominence with The Queen’s Gambit in 2020, the hit Netflix miniseries that sees her play chess whiz Beth Harmon. For that, she was nominated for an Emmy. Since The Queen’s Gambit, Taylor-Joy has become a much sought-after actress, appearing in films such as Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho and Robert Eggers' Viking film The Northman.
Taylor-Joy now posts a fun video to her Instagram account, featuring her rapping along to Eminem’s “Lose Yourself.” The post also includes a video of Taylor-Joy playing a driving-based arcade game and a photo of a cat. The last video shows Taylor-Joy as a passenger in a car while“Lose Yourself” plays and she gleefully sings along. Check out the post below:

While many of Taylor-Joy’s onscreen roles see her embodying intensely dramatic characters, here the actress shows her lighter side. The video showcases one of the reasons why Taylor-Joy has gained popularity. Not only is she an immensely talented actress, but she is likable and relatable as well. Fans already see this through her interviews or online videos, but her social media allows a more unfiltered look at what she's like in real life.
Taylor-Joy’s upcoming projects also extend beyond 2022. In likely her biggest blockbuster role to date, Taylor-Joy will play the title role in George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road prequel Furiosa. That project is currently filming, and Taylor-Joy has been spotted on set with a vastly different hairstyle than the one she sports in the post. That means the image and videos shared could be from before Taylor-Joy began work on Furiosa. It's been said that Furiosa will be a rather grueling shoot, so with this post, fans get a peek at how Taylor-Joy might find herself relaxing while not working on set. Even action stars deserve the opportunity to unwind in a car and rap along to an old favorite.
