“When I go to the movies and see the actors and actresses I look up to, I like knowing as little as possible about them, so I can see them becoming these different characters. If you can find a way to keep a bit of mystery, that’s good for the work,” she told Sunday Style.

The 27-year-old star, who will next be seen in Jason Bourne, says she even stays away from social media.

To maintain that mystery, she stays off social media.

“I tried I got a bit stressed out that I had to post things. If you enjoy doing it, it’s a great way to keep in touch with audiences. But I didn’t have that drive to do it just privately with my friends, so I wouldn’t be very good at it.”
