Anya Taylor-Joy has big plans to rival Gwyneth Paltrow’s £197million company Goop as she prepares to launch lifestyle business
It looks like Anya Taylor-Joy is taking a leaf out of Gwyneth Paltrow’s book and launching her own lifestyle company.
The aspiring actress, 27, has applied to the Intellectual Property Office to trademark the name ‘Anya’ for a wide range of goods and services.
According to newly published documents, they range from make-up bags and phone cases to stockings and suspenders.
Interestingly, her application also covers games, so Taylor-Joy, who starred as child prodigy Beth Harmon in the Netflix series The Queen’s Gambit, could bust out her own chess set.
The Golden Globe honoree – who left school at the age of 16 to pursue an acting career – became notable for her role as chess prodigy Beth Harmon in the hit Netflix show The Queen’s Gambit.

The Split star previously said that her fans often “want to play chess with me.”
‘I’m not wearing one [a chess board] with me, but the point of jumping from project to project is that you gain skills from that specific project,” she admitted.

The wealthy company offers wellness advice from doctors, travel advice and even expensive clean beauty, fashion and home products.
The award-winning actress insisted she has no objections to leaving the spotlight for good.
Gwyneth has already retired from acting, her last major film was 2019’s Avengers: Endgame.
“I’m literally going to disappear from public life,” the stunning star told Bustle about her future retirement plans. “No one will ever see me again.”
She echoed this sentiment later in the interview when asked if she would try to teach others how to age gracefully.
“I’ll probably try, knowing myself. Or I could say, “F*** this.” Maybe I’ll just disappear and no one will ever see me again.’

Gwyneth’s business offerings range from wellness advice from doctors to travel advice, and even extend to expensive clean beauty, fashion and home decor.
Anna rose to fame in 2020 when she starred in the Netflix hit The Queen’s Gambit, but she also previously enjoyed success in Peaky Blinders.
In 2023, Anya married American musician and actor Malcolm McRae in a lavish Italian ceremony after two years of dating.
Later in 2024, Anya will helm the post-apocalyptic action-adventure film Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the fifth film in the Mad Max series.
