7) Daisy Buchanan (Carey Mulligan) – The Great Gatsby

Daisy Buchanan has often been described as the kind of woman who could light up any room. Her charm and beauty were supposed to make her irresistible, leaving men obsessed with her even when they knew better. Carey Mulligan approached Daisy differently. Instead of focusing on her glamour, she highlighted Daisy’s insecurities. Mulligan played her as someone who wasn’t fully comfortable in her own life, often looking unsure or lost in conversations. Her voice had a softness that felt fragile rather than seductive, and her body language suggested hesitation, especially when Gatsby pushed her to run away with him.
