Foy gets tough

Claire Foy has told Vogue of her transformation from the elegant Queen in The Crown to her action character Lisbeth Salander in The Girl in the Spider’s Web, who has piercings, a choppy black haircut, leather outfits and a Swedish accent. “Suddenly I was like: ‘I can do 10 press-ups’. I could run. I could lift weights,” she told the magazine, which is available from Oct 23.
