8 Best Elizabeth Debicki Movies

By Vlad Zakh · January 1, 2026

Elizabeth Debicki’s striking height and controlled stillness make her a favourite of directors who want someone to dominate a scene without raising her voice. Tenet entangles her in a mission to prevent time inversion, The Burnt Orange Heresy turns an art critic’s scheme into blackmail and murder, A Royal Night Out sends two young princesses out on VE night, and Cracks unravels an elite girls’ school over a teacher’s favouritism. Widows, Vita & Virginia, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and The Great Gatsby round out the list.
