Ever since Vanessa Kirby ended her run on The Crown, she's really been on a roll. She starred in Mission: Impossible – Fallout opposite Tom Cruise, who she called "such a pro" during a 2018 interview with The Guardian. Kirby said that Cruise "always wants everything executed at a super-high level, so you have to train really hard." And, apparently, Kirby came through at a "super-high level" because her IMDb page confirms that she will be a part of the seventh and eighth Mission: Impossible movies.
Kirby joined an all-star cast for the 2019 movie Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, acting alongside Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Helen Mirren, Jason Statham, and Idris Elba. Although it was admittedly difficult for Kirby to say goodbye to playing Princess Margaret on The Crown, it seems like that two-season cut-off time was such a great thing for her career. If she had been locked down for the rest of the show, she might not have had the opportunities to capitalize on that success and take on her subsequent movie roles. Everything does seem to happen for a reason.
Kirby has come a long way from the little girl who enjoyed acting as a chance to escape childhood bullies. Now, she's a bonafide star, with an estimated $4 million net worth, according to Celebrity Net Worth. And, she probably has more of those Mission Impossible checks coming her way.
