Anya Taylor-Joy says Jimmy Fallon “saved her life” at the Met Gala.

“It was my first and only time, and I was wearing a really heavy dress,” Taylor-Joy added.

“At the end of the night, I’m at the top of the stairs when Hailee Steinfeld walks past me in a three-train outfit. Oh, I’ll die on the Met stairs, darling. You literally dragged me out of it like God’s Hand.”

Taylor-Joy appeared on the show to promote her new film, The Menu, which opens Friday.

“You were really lovely, you said ‘I’m Jimmy, good to meet you,’” Taylor-Joy said.
