Anya Taylor-Joy has established herself as one of her era's most versatile actors. At 30, she's built a career across film and television, appearing in franchises like Super Mario and Mad Max, along with winning a Golden Globe for her role in The Queen’s Gambit. Earlier this year, she starred in the Apple TV series Lucky and will also play a major role in the cinematic event that is Dune: Part Three. Taylor-Joy is one of the few modern stars who comfortably fit the movie-star label, and it all began with her career-defining breakout role, which turned the final girl trope on its head — a girl who survives not by fighting, but by giving in.

The Battlestar Galactica Board Game Is Making a Surprise Comeback Next Year
When it comes to board games, a frequent “Holy Grail” game (a term used to describe a game that someone has been hunting for, usually out of print and expensive) on many lists is Fantasy Flight Games’ Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game. But it looks like the search may be coming to an end for fans, as it was announced today that Ghost Galaxy has entered into an agreement with Universal and Fantasy Flight Games to publish a brand-new edition of this coveted title, coming to crowdfunding early next year. First released back in 2008 and featuring imagery from the Sci-Fi Channel reboot, this social deduction/hidden traitor game wonderfully captured the tension from the show, where anyone could be a secret Cylon agent trying to thwart the single mission of the humans—to get home. Battlestar Galactica would go on to get three expansions, but almost a decade ago now, it all went out of print, and now prices on the secondary market for a full set (base game + expansions) could easily cost you more than a grand.
