You should watch Little Dorrit. She's absolutely fantastic in it. I was shocked to discover that her career hadn't really taken off after that and it took near 8 years until the release of The Crown for her to be really recognised as she deserved it.
Her accent, her understated style, down-to-earth nature, and her strikingly blue eyes is all so mesmerising. A regal-like persona, that I could totally see myself sitting opposite her at dinner, and just stare her into her eyes, listening to her talk about the weather.
Her voice, her blue eyes... 😍❤ Oh Lord! She forgot to mention Charlotte - White Heat and Lady Persie in Upstairs, Downstairs. I just love watch her in everything! Huge fan, i think she's a new Meryl Streep with a long career ahead! And im happy because im gonna follow her next movies/tvshows and everything! 💕💕💕💕
@@luh573 its been years since i saw of pic of diana but having checked she did have very blue eyes. They both speak proper english too. Both are english roses! Would i be right in guessing you can your not english?
@@skeemer01 i always use to see pictures of princess diana on my instagram.... well first time i saw claire foy - before watch the crown - i thought omg she could play Diana with those big blue eyes, but after watch oh well mada a great job as Lilibet. (?)
Get RYAN Gosling to do this,. he has had so many iconic characters. Half nelson, the notebook, lars, drive, The nice guys, La la land, The place beyond the pines, Blade runner 2049, first man etc. I wish he would do more interviews
4:01 “I had to relearn a whole person” the truth in this statement hits you even harder after watching two or three episodes of The Crown. Her and Queen Elizabeth are two different people and it is the best acting I’ve ever seen.
her exposition is so lovely. i very much appreciate her being so sincere with her details on the technical aspects of watching a fake of the moon landing first-hand and her critical thought into understanding of (mid-century) american culture. thank you for bringing more actresses into this series GQ! great content!
Wow, her eyes look great here! I've seen her in many roles (Wolf Hall my favorite) and never noticed them like this before, they are just so blue and mesmerizing and I am slowly melting and being hypnotized...
Absolutely loved her in Little Dorrit. She totally captured the essence of that iconic character. Largely thanks to her phenomenal performance it's one of my all-time favourite period dramas and I constantly return to it again and again. No wonder I was truly shocked to discover that after such a fantastic debut her career didn't really take off and for a very long time she seemed to kinda stagnate playing mostly obscure secondary roles. I am really happy that it all changed with the release of The Crown and she finally achieved the well-deserved worldwide recognition.
Incredible actor...I saw UNSANE and then watched The Crown and did not realize she had been in the former as the lead till I read it in her IMDB page! I miss her Queen Elizabeth already !
Thankyou! 😃😀 I finally come across the comment i was hoping to see on one of her videos haha 😄👌 Could have posted it myself, but i wanted to see if anybody would say the same thing ^.^
@@ds1868 there is. It's called RP or BBC English or Standard British pronunciation. That is what people all around the world usually refer to when they speak about 'British accent'.
It's been a while since I follow her career and I just can't believe how famous she's right now, she's going to host SNL! I'm so happy and proud of her Claire Foy truly deserve the world. SHE'S COMING FOR THAT OSCAR
Hosting SNL doesn't mean you're famous or even a good actor/actress/comedian/whatever. Hosting SNL means you have a good agent with connections to NBC. She will fade into obscurity momentarily.
Adora B Dearheart is her first role that I saw of hers that sold me on her. Absolutely fierce in Going Postal. It’s sad it’s not in this list. Fans don’t forget their first.
Out of the 23 movies and tv shows that I know of , my favorites (other than the Queen) were Season of the Witch, Unsane and The Spider Web. Iconic also means victorious and she has quite a resume.
Do this with Emily Blunt! I'd love to hear her commentary on her iconic roles and films, including Devil Wears Prada, Mary Poppins, Oppenheimer, Edge of Tomorrow, Sicario, A Quiet Place, etc
GQ you really don't understand the meaning of 'iconic'. Claire Foy Is talented no doubt but the only of those that you could argue is iconic is Queen Elizabeth in The Crown. Iconic characters are ones that transcend the film/show they're in to the point that people who haven't even seen them know who it is.
I just finished watching the crown in two days... No kidding!!! I am eternally in love with Claire... great actress 💕💕💕💕 P.s She's heavenly beautiful 😍 and I'm straight 😚
Not sure what it is about her, the intellect, the grace, the color of her eyes, the cute body freckles, her shyness, the accent? Or just the entire sum of it all but i could honestly listen to this angel speak and watch her innocent smile for days without missing anything or anyone. Crazy right. Long Live Elizabeth 😋
I think it was the Crown that set her up to a world renowned actress for solely reason doing 20 episodes is different than a movie, we get to see her more of her memorable acting. Not even Olivia could fit the shoes, Claire made it almost impossible for the next actress to fill in the Crown main character.
I think Claire is wonderful actress and its good she has some recognition now but her career is too short to be named iconic. GQ overplays with a celebrity world, really. Wish her luck though
That's where I first saw her. Really enjoyed her performance and hoped she'd go on to more widely recognized projects. Looks like she's doing really well!
I came here because of Crown. SHE MADE ME SEE QUEEN ELIZABETH IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL. Also Emma Watson,Emily Blunt and Claire Foy are my favorite actresses. Wellp ugh.. go brits? Lol i am an aussie right here so let me insert Rebel Wilson. Also I thought she was related to Mackenzie Foy. LOL : )
I feel like I missed more than half of the content because her voice is like a warm blanket and I can't remember anything else.
Omg yes
i realize Im kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good site to watch new tv shows online?
@Mathias Zayd i use flixzone. You can find it on google =)
@Jude Joseph Definitely, I've been using FlixZone for since april myself :D
I just started watching The Crown. WOW she's incredible!!
She is so talented, charming and humble
But boring
And funny.
Claire Foy is phenomenal in The Crown! I need to see Unsane & First Man for sure.
You should watch Little Dorrit. She's absolutely fantastic in it. I was shocked to discover that her career hadn't really taken off after that and it took near 8 years until the release of The Crown for her to be really recognised as she deserved it.
Update: I loved both Unsane & First Man. I liked Unsane a bit more though.
Her accent, her understated style, down-to-earth nature, and her strikingly blue eyes is all so mesmerising.
A regal-like persona, that I could totally see myself sitting opposite her at dinner, and just stare her into her eyes, listening to her talk about the weather.
Iconic roles for an iconic actress.
@Shane Jordan SO many good films and THE CROWN within 2 years, I would call her iconic
@Shane Jordan They use the word 'iconic' easily these days. I mean she's an amazing actress, but for me, Bette Davis or Jane Fonda is iconic.
Not an iconic actress and not iconic roles. Maybe Lisbeth, but she'll be remember for being the worst Lisbeth.
Not iconic yet, but feel we are just at the beginning of an amazing career.
YASSSSS
She has mesmerising eyes!
Just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. Love her to death!
Lilibet always has mesmerizing eyes.. hehe
Her voice, her blue eyes... 😍❤ Oh Lord! She forgot to mention Charlotte - White Heat and Lady Persie in Upstairs, Downstairs. I just love watch her in everything!

Her eyes dont look real. Too big and too blue, in a good way
skeemer01 yes her eyes are so beautiful reminds me the late Princess Diana, she also had beautiful big blue eyes.

Claire Foy, please, do an audiobook reading so we can hear you talk!
She did actually! Look for welcoming the unwelcome!
she did! she's done an audiobook reading of pride&prejudice :)

Helena Bonham Carter roles are gonna be so epic
Oh yes. f off

My favorite actress. Fell in love w/her as Little Dorrit, and she seems to be as sweet as the character....certainly as humble...
i love unsane, i could tell she was really into it by how phenomenal her performance was.
Ever since Little Dorrit i've loved Claire.She's Gorgeous.😍
Listening to British accent is like eating the most delicious food...
Wow. Poetic
Claire has an English accent. There is no such thing as a British accent.
@@ds1868 there is. It's called RP or BBC English or Standard British pronunciation. That is what people all around the world usually refer to when they speak about 'British accent'.
Shougo Kawada Except she’s not speaking RP here at all...
she speaks so humbly about it like shes eking through on these roles, but shes PHENOMENAL!
SHE IS SO TALENTED AND HUMBLE!
Claire Foy is an incredible actress but I can’t believe there wasn’t a mention for The Promise. Such a powerful story and her performance is amazing.
She was amazing on Upstairs Downstairs!
It's been a while since I follow her career and I just can't believe how famous she's right now, she's going to host SNL! I'm so happy and proud of her Claire Foy truly deserve the world. SHE'S COMING FOR THAT OSCAR
Hosting SNL doesn't mean you're famous or even a good actor/actress/comedian/whatever. Hosting SNL means you have a good agent with connections to NBC. She will fade into obscurity momentarily.
@@foeof she's doing better than you, loser with 150 views
This comment 👌
Wonderful actress... and lovely person it seems, I love her.
So glad they got UNSANE in there. Love that performance.
She is an absolute queen. Crown or no crown.
THIS 🙌🙌🙌👑👑👑😍❤️
Omg her accent I'm in love.
Claire Foy is one of the those actors that will be as famous and loved like Meril Streep
Adora B Dearheart is her first role that I saw of hers that sold me on her. Absolutely fierce in Going Postal. It’s sad it’s not in this list. Fans don’t forget their first.
An angel.
I know its not a known movie but I was so hoping that they would mention "Going Postal" she is amazing in that
I first saw her in Little Dorritt. I knew she was amazing back then. She stole the show.
In "The Promise 2011" she was incredible too, and got me so emotional.
Please get Nicole Kidman to do this. Her career is full of iconic roles, especially Moulin Rouge! ❤️❤️
i would love to hear her discuss her memories of practical magic!
She's so beautiful.
If a bio-pic of Julie Andrews is made Claire Foy would be the only one who could play her .
Out of the 23 movies and tv shows that I know of , my favorites (other than the Queen) were Season of the Witch, Unsane and The Spider Web. Iconic also means victorious and she has quite a resume.
She is so wonderful in Crown🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍❤️🤍❤️🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍🔥🤍

She could’ve included Mary Poppins in her list. But Emily won the role. Claire would’ve been an incredible Mary Poppins in Mary Poppins Returns
”Unsane” was amazing.
GQ you really don't understand the meaning of 'iconic'. Claire Foy Is talented no doubt but the only of those that you could argue is iconic is Queen Elizabeth in The Crown. Iconic characters are ones that transcend the film/show they're in to the point that people who haven't even seen them know who it is.
I've said this more than once on these videos. Iconic doesn't mean most well known
Anne Boleyen ?
Pretty sure they mean “iconic” in terms of the subject’s own life and career.
foy you were superb in the crown 👑 😍
I watched her in breath I was mesmerized by her performance with Andrew nd after seeing her in the crown i am like 💓💓💓💓
Please Hollywood cast her and benedict cumberbatch in a major motion picture
Upstairs Downstairs is the first part I saw her in
Unsane was reallllyyyy goood omggg
I love that woman.
Ooh! She's the actress in "The Girl in the Spider's Web"!?! Just read the book, wanted to see the film. REALLY want to see her now! Yay! :)
She’s so precious “can i come and sit with you??”
Extremely beautiful
OMG! The Lisa Stansfield reference made me love her even more.
She also was in The Lady in the Van playing a social worker
Mcmuffin sounds so good right now!
She is one among few women who rock any kinda short haired look
I love claire foy so much shes amazing. Can you pleaseeeee do one of these with amy adams pleassssee♥️
I like her in Little Dorrit and The Crown.
I just finished watching the crown in two days... No kidding!!! I am eternally in love with Claire... great actress 💕💕💕💕
P.s She's heavenly beautiful 😍 and I'm straight 😚
You should watch Little Dorrit now. I'm sure you will finish it in just a day.
The Wolf Hall miniseries is the best.
unsane is SO underrated
She was amazing in Unsane
Unsane was SO good
I want Claire Foy and Benedict Cumberbatch to do a film together
They did the Wreckers and the Louis Vain is in post production
A new one is on talks too!!!
I wish they could make Emma Thompson do this! 😭
She forgot to mention her role as Margaret Campbell in A Very British Scandal.
The Crown is the reason I stan her and ship her with Matt Smith
Not sure what it is about her, the intellect, the grace, the color of her eyes, the cute body freckles, her shyness, the accent?

But she already won an Emmy.
@@noirque2202 Which wasn`t my point
Captivating.
Thought she was great in Terry Pratchett's Going Postal.
I just realized she was Ms Dearheart
Captain Black Yes! I wish she had talked about Adorable.
@@lisaseiler9554 Loved that book and it was a great adaptation.
That's where I first saw her. Really enjoyed her performance and hoped she'd go on to more widely recognized projects. Looks like she's doing really well!
Saw her in Season Of The Witch
I'm on Claire Foy roller coaster nowadays.
I came here because of Crown.
SHE MADE ME SEE QUEEN ELIZABETH
IN A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL.
Also Emma Watson,Emily Blunt and Claire Foy are my favorite actresses. Wellp ugh.. go brits? Lol i am an aussie right here so let me insert Rebel Wilson.
Also I thought she was related to Mackenzie Foy. LOL : )
Emma Watson near to E. Blunt and C. Foy?? LMAO
Dame Helen Mirren played a great Queen. She was awesome
She looks like twiggy here
Thankyou!
😄
I finally come across the comment i was hoping to see on one of her videos ages ago haha
Adora Belle!!!
Wished they covered Going Postal too.
Keira Knightley next PLEASE
GO CLAIRE!!!!!!!!!!!
Totally missed out The Promise 😕
If there will ever be a movie regarding Dolores O'Riordan, I think Claire should be casted.
You guys have got to get Steve Carell to do this
"Iconic"....I don't think that word means what you think it means.
Missed out her best role in ‘The Promise’ - one of her earliest parts too.
I would love to see Robin Wright do one of these.
First of all, her Anne Boleyn was sensational.
Adora Belle Dearheart. The one and only.
I kinda wish she talked about Going Postal.
Please do this with Tom Hardy!
an amazing actress, we stan, we love
Wait a minute is this a 3 in 1? Yes it is true.
omg..claire can easily play Twiggy..in this look..easily! w her big eyes n so 60s look. effortlessly
She doesn't have enough iconic roles for this video
Their coming though 🔥
You can be your bottom dollar on that 👌
Have you seen her in Wolf Hall? She's awesome, as well as, in The Crown and Little Dorrit. Brilliant and iconic
I like heard when she mention her pregnancy ❤
Is wolf hall worth watching?
J A M E S M C A V O Y
I can't believe The Promise isn't on here
