Anya is on her way to becoming a household name, thanks to her Golden Globe-winning performance as chess prodigy Beth Harmon in the Netflix drama.

But she revealed there are no plans for a second series.

She said: “It was always a sapling to tree transition. You see her grow, you leave her in a good place.”

Despite achieving huge success and being scouted by a modelling agency, Anya previously admitted she doesn’t think she is beautiful enough to be a star.

Last year she said: “I have never and I don’t think I will ever think of myself as beautiful.

“I won’t go to the cinema to watch my own film, I’ll watch it before. The beauty of being in your own skin is that you don’t have to look at your own face.”



The shoot saw Anya sport a range of sophisticated styles

In April we revealed Anya raked in more than £500,000 from the Netflix show.

And the star – who has British-Argentine-US citizenship – won a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Limited Series.
