Elizabeth Debicki, who previously impressed the audience and critics alike with her performance as Britain’s Princess Diana in the final two seasons of Netflix’s ‘The Crown’, is now starring in Ti West’s horror threequel, ‘MaXXXine’.
Speaking about the deliberate and much-refreshing change in her acting career, Debicki said in a new interview, “I shot this quite soon after wrapping on The Crown and I found it to be a very medicinal palate cleanser.”
“I have no idea why this came my way, except that when I read the script it felt symbiotic and I felt really connected to the role,” she added. “It’s a really interesting ride being an actor. It’s not really my job to see myself in certain ways, it’s my job to become the thing that people need me to become.”
