Turner-Smith gained a huge following for her breakout role opposite Daniel Kaluuya in Queen & Slim. The crime-drama film follows Turner-Smith and Kaluuya on the run after their date goes awry. Since that 2019 film role, Turner-Smith also appeared in the action film Without Remorse opposite Michael B. Jordan. Turner-Smith effortlessly played that role while she was pregnant with her daughter. Fans can now follow Turner-Smith in the limited television series Anne Boleyn, which has her starring in the titular role.
#QueenAndSlim is in equal measures, beautiful as it is tragic. A powerful, thought provoking film that shows the butterfly effect of police brutality. Jodie Turner-Smith & Daniel Kaluuya are incredible together. pic.twitter.com/dMMyV3q0nK
