Anya Taylor-Joy is leading a Netflix adaptation of Bella Mackie’s How to Kill Your Family.

The Mad Max: Furiosa star will play the murderous Grace Bernard, the protagonist of Mackie’s book.

Synopsis reads: Grace is the forgotten child of Simon Artemis, a merciless billionaire. After a heartbreaking rejection, Grace decides to exact revenge. But will this deadly scheme take even more from Grace than she’s already lost?

“As soon as I turned the last page, I knew I had to be a part of bringing this story to life,” Taylor-Joy told Netflix. “After some (light) stalking of the inimitable Bella Mackie, I could not be more thrilled to be collaborating with the team that is executive producers Sally Woodward Gentle, Lizzie Rusbridger, and Emma. I am looking forward to getting our hands even dirtier.”

Mackie added: “It’s been thrilling to watch the characters I wrote take on new life under this magnificent creative team. Anya is the most perfect fit to play Grace: I often think she understands her better than I do.”

The series is being produced by Killing Eve maker Sid Gentle and leads a splashy Netflix slate that has just been announced at the Edinburgh TV Festival including docs on Take That and Victoria Beckham.

Mackie, a journalist and author, is EPing with Emma Moran, Sally Woodward Gentle, Lizzie Rusbridger and Lee Morris for Sid Gentle Film, while Taylor-Joy will EP for LadyKiller.

More casting will likely be incoming.

This is her Odyssey. #Furiosa – Only in Theaters 2024

Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth star in Academy Award-winning mastermind George Miller’s “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” the much-anticipated return to the iconic dystopian world he created more than 30 years ago with the seminal “Mad Max” films. Miller now turns the page again with an all-new original, standalone action adventure that will reveal the origins of the powerhouse character from the multiple Oscar-winning global smash “Mad Max: Fury Road.” The new feature from Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures is produced by Miller and his longtime partner, Oscar-nominated producer Doug Mitchell (“Mad Max: Fury Road,” “Babe”), under their Australian-based Kennedy Miller Mitchell banner.

As the world fell, young Furiosa is snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers and falls into the hands of a great Biker Horde led by the Warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel presided over by The Immortan Joe. While the two Tyrants war for dominance, Furiosa must survive many trials as she puts together the means to find her way home.

Taylor-Joy stars in the title role, and along with Hemsworth, the film also stars Alyla Browne and Tom Burke.

Miller penned the script with “Mad Max: Fury Road” co-writer Nico Lathouris. Miller’s behind-the-scenes creative team includes first assistant director PJ Voeten and second unit director and stunt coordinator Guy Norris, director of photography Simon Duggan (“Hacksaw Ridge,” “The Great Gatsby”), composer Tom Holkenborg, sound designer Robert Mackenzie, editor Eliot Knapman, visual effects supervisor Andrew Jackson and colorist Eric Whipp. The team also includes other longtime collaborators: production designer Colin Gibson, editor Margaret Sixel, sound mixer Ben Osmo, costume designer Jenny Beavan and makeup designer Lesley Vanderwalt, each of whom won an Oscar for their work on “Mad Max: Fury Road.”

Warner Bros. Pictures Presents, in Association with Village Roadshow Pictures, A Kennedy Miller Mitchell Production, A George Miller Film, “Furiosa.” The film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, in theaters only nationwide on May 24, 2024 and internationally beginning on May 22, 2024.

Tthat and ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Jumanji’ are like how I learned English,” the “Super Mario Bros. Movie” actress said.

Anya Taylor-Joy was “super starstruck” over meeting her “Super Mario Bros. Movie” co-star Jack Black.

The “Queen’s Gambit” Golden Globe winner admitted that her childhood love of “School of Rock” made Black a real-life rockstar to her, especially as a fan of his band Tenacious D.

“At the school I went to when I first moved to London they would play ‘School of Rock’ every Friday,” Taylor-Joy told Buzzfeed UK. “At that time, I didn’t really speak much English, if any, so that and ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Jumanji’ are like how I learned English!”

Taylor-Joy was born in Florida, raised in Argentina, and later moved to the U.K. at age six. She now stars alongside “School of Rock” icon Black in “The Super Mario Bros.” animated movie, but they did not meet until the press tour.

“I didn’t realize I was going to be doing the press day for this movie with Jack Black, so when I read that, the sound that came out of me was just this high pitch shriek that I was not expecting!” Taylor-Joy said.”We haven’t met each other because we all recorded our parts individually, so I was super starstruck when I saw the schedule for today.”

She added, “I very seldom get like that, but I was just running around earlier like, ‘Oh my God, Tenacious D, this is amazing.’”

Taylor-Joy noted that Tenacious D’s “Tribute” is her go-to karaoke song: “I do all the voices. That’s always awesome,” she said.

The “Furiosa” actress previously told The Wall Street Journal that she refused to learn English for two years after moving to London in an effort to force her parents to move back to South America. Now, Taylor-Joy is wanting to return to using her first language, telling Buzzfeed, “I’d love to make a movie in Spanish, so any Spanish-speaking directors. I’d love to do that.”

“School of Rock” celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. Lead actor Black confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that he is planning a reunion with the original cast.

“All those kids, dig this, they were 10 years old when we made that movie and now they’re all, like, 30,” Black said. “We’re going to get together and have a 20-year anniversary. We like to jam. I’m looking forward to seeing all of the grownups from ‘School of Rock.’”
