Anya Taylor-Joy embodied Beth Harmon in the "The Queen's Gambit" and her expressive play is partly responsible for the success of the series. Netflix organised a chat between Anya Taylor-Joy and the real-life "Queen of Chess": Judit Polgar, the first and only female player who made it to the world's top ten.
