Top Gun Maverick‘s star Jennifer Connelly takes the cover story of Marie Claire Australia Magazine‘s July 2022 edition lensed by fashion photographer David Roemer at Atelier Management. In charge of styling was Alison Edmond, with set design from Todd Wiggins at MHS Artists. Beauty is work of hair stylist Renato Campora at The Wall Group, makeup artist Genevieve Herr, and manicurist Mo Qin at The Wall Group. For the story Connelly is wearing selected pieces from the Louis Vuitton Fall Winter 2022.23 Collection.
I think that the work environment has definitely changed for the better. That’s great; that’s fantastic. There’s a lot more awareness, sensitivity and focus on roles for women, which is wonderful. There’s probably still more work to do but we’re definitely moving in the right direction. I think it’s hugely different [from] when I was a youth. [But] it’s hard for me to say, because I’m now 51. So I’m treated differently on a movie set by virtue of my age at this point. But for example, shooting intimate scenes … the director would say [in the past], ‘OK, here’s the thing, and close set and roll cameras, and you guys just go for it.’ They weren’t even treated as scenes. Now there are intimacy coordinators who mediate and make sure everyone is comfortable.” – Jennifer Connelly
