Margaret Qualley Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Margaret Qualley is having an unforgettable November, solidifying her place as one of Hollywood’s most intriguing talents and most in-demand leading ladies. In a brand-new Cosmopolitan cover story, Margaret opens up about her current whirlwind: she’s gracing the magazine to mark its milestone anniversary and, fittingly, riding or rather striding high on a career peak. Just in the past few days, her film Honey Don’t!—the Ethan Coen and Tricia Cooke comedy and the second chapter of their queer Drive-Away Dolls trilogy—was announced as a Cannes Film Festival premiere this year. Richard Linklater’s Blue Moon, another starring vehicle for Margaret, is also headed for its own anticipated fall debut. And she’s just wrapped shooting on Huntington, a dark comedy–thriller opposite Glen Powell, while currently appearing in the highly buzzed-about Happy Gilmore 2, that long-awaited Adam Sandler sequel fans never thought would materialize.

Margaret’s real life is no less captivating. The Cosmopolitan profile paints her as at once grounded and dazzling—a woman who takes her dog for walks on the Jersey Shore, meditates twice daily, and radiates a quiet depth that sets her apart. She recounted her first meeting with husband Jack Antonoff, music producer and Bleachers frontman, thanks to a serendipitous rooftop encounter set up by her sister after pandemic lockdowns. Margaret confessed to following “Southern girl etiquette” early in their relationship, letting Jack say “I love you” first and refusing to double-text until things were official. She’s candid about her journey toward self-understanding and the unique bond she shares with Jack, noting how for the first time she feels truly safe and completely herself—qualities she’d long associated with her childhood crush on Adam Sandler in the original Happy Gilmore, making her new film experience almost poetic.

On the press circuit, Margaret and co-star Aubrey Plaza recently went viral with their affectionate appearance together on the Cannes red carpet for Honey Don’t!, adding new fuel to Margaret’s ever-growing queer fanbase. Meanwhile, talk about her transformative performance alongside Demi Moore in The Substance continues to echo, with both stars reflecting publicly on how the body-horror drama forced them to reexamine womanhood and generational trauma. Margaret calls Demi one of her dearest friends now, and insists any rumors of on-screen sexual tension are just fan fantasy—no real sparks, just deep admiration.

For those wondering about Margaret’s social media, she keeps things largely analog and unplugged, revealing to Cosmopolitan that she checks Instagram only rarely and prefers to stay in the moment, a rarity for Hollywood stars, but entirely in character for her.

There are no verified reports of surprise projects, unexpected controversies, or major business deals in the last 24 hours, but every indication is that Margaret’s rising trajectory is only gaining momentum. From high-wattage festival premiers to viral red carpet moments, she’s not only setting the tone for femme-centric Hollywood but also scripting her own standard for what it means to genuinely connect with audiences and collaborators alike.
