Anya Taylor-Joy celebrated her film Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga premiere getting a six minute standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival in style on Wednesday night. 

Having earlier walked the red carpet in a shimmering strapless Dior ballgown, the actress, 28, vamped up her look in a plunging 1920s fringed minidress with evening gloves and a glittering silver necklace to head to the show’s after-party. 

Anya was joined by her onscreen co-star Chris Hemsworth, his wife Elsa Pataky and Naomi Campbell on the Croisette. 

Not one to miss a fashion opportunity, Naomi, 53, had also changed out of her black glittering dress and into a khaki military inspired number. 

The supermodel showed off her famous legs and went braless in the dress which had a thigh-high slit. She was pictured leaving the party in the early hours of the morning.

She has been spotted out and about in recent days speaking to fans, including posing with them for selfies outside her hotel on Wednesday, wearing cropped silver cardigan and small black shorts.

The Queen’s Gambit star takes over as the younger Furiosa in the upcoming film, which is set between 15 and 20 years before the events of Mad Max: Fury Road, while Australian heartthrob Chris Hemsworth is playing warlord leader, Dementus.

Starring alongside Chris he described the villainous character as ‘a very violent, insane, brutal person that is born from the Wasteland’.

Tom Hardy, who plays a main role in the film after staring the first Mad Max, was not to be seen on the red carpet.

Filming for Furiosa took place in New South Wales, Australia, beginning in June 2022 and wrapped up in October.

The fifth installment of the Mad Max  franchise opens in theaters on May 24 in the United States from Warner Bros., which is hoping the film will match (or exceed) the $380 global box office of ‘Fury Road.’ With a budget of $168 million, ‘Furiosa’ will need to do big business to turn a profit.

Miller, who created the ‘Mad Max’ franchise, and has directed all five films dating back to 1979. 

He was most recently at Cannes in 2022 with ‘Three Thousand Years of Longing,’ starring Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton. He also served as the festival’s jury president in 2016.
