There’s nothing prim and proper about Vanessa Kirby’s Princess Margaret, who smoked, drank and fearlessly flirted her way through the first two seasons of “The Crown,” earning her an Emmy nom. But now Kirby is getting to show off her action chops as the latest femme fatale in “Mission: Impossible — Fallout,” opposite Tom Cruise, which will be released July 27. “I’m so clumsy, I wasn’t sure if I could be [an action star],” says Kirby. “But there’s something incredibly liberating and exhilarating about pretending to kill people with knives.”
How has playing Princess Margaret changed your career?
She’s given me so much, really. It was just such an amazing thing to play somebody who’s so colorful and so vivid. There’s not that many parts like that, that are in full multicolor or have vibrancy. To play somebody that has such a range of feelings and depth and such extremes of feelings.
