00:00 Anya, welcome to London. Tell us how you feel about being at the UK premiere.
00:03 Oh, it feels so nice to be back. It's been quite a bit of time since I've been back home,
00:07 so it feels good.
00:08 You are in this amazing franchise. It's Universe. Sum it up for me if you can.
00:12 Oh my goodness. I think I've distilled it down to a philosophical, intellectual rock
00:19 and roll opera. Make of that what you will. Sorry.
00:23 And you're starring alongside Chris Hemsworth. How special is he?
00:26 He's just so wonderful. I feel really glad to have a counterpart and a brother and just
00:30 somebody that I adore.
00:32 And did you have a highlight from this that you just loved?
00:36 The set pieces. Just being able to be on set and be a fan. You know, like you usually come
00:42 to work and of course you're excited as a performer, but also being able to run around
00:47 and just go, "This is amazing. I'm in a Mad Max movie. This is wild." That was exciting.
00:52 And it's a huge screen. Why is it important to see it on an IMAX screen like this?
00:56 Because everything's been hand-painted by George Miller. We had three units running
01:00 at all times. Nothing happened without his say-so. I could do take after take on second
01:06 unit. He would watch it and go, "That was brilliant, but your helmet needs to be one
01:11 inch higher on your head." Like that's the meticulousness that he has, so that's why.
