Anya Taylor-Joy is the latest celebrity to reveal they've got a passion for gaming.
Earlier this year, it was announced that the voice of Princess Peach in The Super Mario Bros. Movie would be none other than Anya Taylor-Joy. Far from being a Mario fan, The Queen's Gambit actress admits that she didn't indulge in the virtual hobby prior to landing the role but says that after doing research for the film, she now considers herself a gamer.
"So now I am a gamer, and it's really fun," she told Modern Luxury San Diego. "Ideally, I like playing at arcades, because, again, it's like cinema; I love the ceremony. I'll go with a whole bunch of friends. And we'll just spend hours at the arcade."
Taylor-Joy joins an ever-growing number of celebrities who like to spend their free time in virtual worlds. Earlier this year, Stranger Things star David Harbour revealed he was once "wildly addicted" to World of Warcraft. And he doesn't seem to have been able to kick the habit, as last week, he joined a bunch of regular WoW streamers for an official dungeon run stream to promote the launch of the game's latest expansion, Dragonflight.
