You should watch Little Dorrit. She's absolutely fantastic in it. I was shocked to discover that her career hadn't really taken off after that and it took near 8 years until the release of The Crown for her to be really recognised as she deserved it.
Her accent, her understated style, down-to-earth nature, and her strikingly blue eyes is all so mesmerising. A regal-like persona, that I could totally see myself sitting opposite her at dinner, and just stare her into her eyes, listening to her talk about the weather.
Get RYAN Gosling to do this,. he has had so many iconic characters. Half nelson, the notebook, lars, drive, The nice guys, La la land, The place beyond the pines, Blade runner 2049, first man etc. I wish he would do more interviews
4:01 “I had to relearn a whole person” the truth in this statement hits you even harder after watching two or three episodes of The Crown. Her and Queen Elizabeth are two different people and it is the best acting I’ve ever seen.
Her voice, her blue eyes... 😍❤ Oh Lord! She forgot to mention Charlotte - White Heat and Lady Persie in Upstairs, Downstairs. I just love watch her in everything! Huge fan, i think she's a new Meryl Streep with a long career ahead! And im happy because im gonna follow her next movies/tvshows and everything! 💕💕💕💕
@@luh573 its been years since i saw of pic of diana but having checked she did have very blue eyes. They both speak proper english too. Both are english roses! Would i be right in guessing you can your not english?
@@skeemer01 i always use to see pictures of princess diana on my instagram.... well first time i saw claire foy - before watch the crown - i thought omg she could play Diana with those big blue eyes, but after watch oh well mada a great job as Lilibet. (?)
her exposition is so lovely. i very much appreciate her being so sincere with her details on the technical aspects of watching a fake of the moon landing first-hand and her critical thought into understanding of (mid-century) american culture. thank you for bringing more actresses into this series GQ! great content!
Wow, her eyes look great here! I've seen her in many roles (Wolf Hall my favorite) and never noticed them like this before, they are just so blue and mesmerizing and I am slowly melting and being hypnotized...
Absolutely loved her in Little Dorrit. She totally captured the essence of that iconic character. Largely thanks to her phenomenal performance it's one of my all-time favourite period dramas and I constantly return to it again and again. No wonder I was truly shocked to discover that after such a fantastic debut her career didn't really take off and for a very long time she seemed to kinda stagnate playing mostly obscure secondary roles. I am really happy that it all changed with the release of The Crown and she finally achieved the well-deserved worldwide recognition.
Incredible actor...I saw UNSANE and then watched The Crown and did not realize she had been in the former as the lead till I read it in her IMDB page! I miss her Queen Elizabeth already !
Thankyou! 😃😀 I finally come across the comment i was hoping to see on one of her videos haha 😄👌 Could have posted it myself, but i wanted to see if anybody would say the same thing ^.^
@@ds1868 there is. It's called RP or BBC English or Standard British pronunciation. That is what people all around the world usually refer to when they speak about 'British accent'.
Do this with Emily Blunt! I'd love to hear her commentary on her iconic roles and films, including Devil Wears Prada, Mary Poppins, Oppenheimer, Edge of Tomorrow, Sicario, A Quiet Place, etc
It's been a while since I follow her career and I just can't believe how famous she's right now, she's going to host SNL! I'm so happy and proud of her Claire Foy truly deserve the world. SHE'S COMING FOR THAT OSCAR
Hosting SNL doesn't mean you're famous or even a good actor/actress/comedian/whatever. Hosting SNL means you have a good agent with connections to NBC. She will fade into obscurity momentarily.
Adora B Dearheart is her first role that I saw of hers that sold me on her. Absolutely fierce in Going Postal. It’s sad it’s not in this list. Fans don’t forget their first.
GQ you really don't understand the meaning of 'iconic'. Claire Foy Is talented no doubt but the only of those that you could argue is iconic is Queen Elizabeth in The Crown. Iconic characters are ones that transcend the film/show they're in to the point that people who haven't even seen them know who it is.
Out of the 23 movies and tv shows that I know of , my favorites (other than the Queen) were Season of the Witch, Unsane and The Spider Web. Iconic also means victorious and she has quite a resume.
That's where I first saw her. Really enjoyed her performance and hoped she'd go on to more widely recognized projects. Looks like she's doing really well!
I just finished watching the crown in two days... No kidding!!! I am eternally in love with Claire... great actress 💕💕💕💕 P.s She's heavenly beautiful 😍 and I'm straight 😚
I think Claire is wonderful actress and its good she has some recognition now but her career is too short to be named iconic. GQ overplays with a celebrity world, really. Wish her luck though
I came here because of Crown. SHE MADE ME SEE QUEEN ELIZABETH IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL. Also Emma Watson,Emily Blunt and Claire Foy are my favorite actresses. Wellp ugh.. go brits? Lol i am an aussie right here so let me insert Rebel Wilson. Also I thought she was related to Mackenzie Foy. LOL : )
Not sure what it is about her, the intellect, the grace, the color of her eyes, the cute body freckles, her shyness, the accent? Or just the entire sum of it all but i could honestly listen to this angel speak and watch her innocent smile for days without missing anything or anyone. Crazy right. Long Live Elizabeth 😋
I think it was the Crown that set her up to a world renowned actress for solely reason doing 20 episodes is different than a movie, we get to see her more of her memorable acting. Not even Olivia could fit the shoes, Claire made it almost impossible for the next actress to fill in the Crown main character.
TheNougatnike Thankyou! 😃😀☺ I was hoping someone in the comment section would say it. Disappointed that anyone othet myself and you mentioned Going Postal :/ Because it was a great bloody film! 👌
