Anya has appeared in popular shows like The Queen’s Gambit and Peaky Blinders as well as films like Emma and Split. The 26-year-old began dating musician and actor Malcolm last year.

She eventually made her screen debut in the TV series Endeavour the following year. Her breakthrough role in the 2015 period drama horror film The Witch earned her recognition and awards both. Her first commercial success was M Night Shyamalan’s Split (2016), where she starred alongside James McAvoy. She reprised her role in the film’s sequel Glass (2019). She gained superstardom with her hot Netflix show The Queen’s Gambit.
