Big break
Bernardo Bertolucci directed the film and cast Tyler after meeting several young girls in Los Angeles, among them Alicia Silverstone, who had appeared with Tyler in a music video. Bertolucci felt all of them lacked something.
A role that slipped away
Tyler said she first said no to the Armageddon role more than once, and the main thing that made her change her mind was fear of it, since she wanted to try it for that reason.
First role
At 14, Tyler landed her first modeling job thanks to Paulina Porizkova, whose pictures of her appeared in Interview magazine. She never took acting lessons.
Behind the camera
Tyler made her debut as a producer on the fantasy horror film Wildling, which she also starred in opposite Bel Powley.
Getting ready for a role
Tyler was cast in the drama Onegin, based on a 19th century Russian novel by Alexander Pushkin, as Tatyana Larina, co-starring with Ralph Fiennes. She had to learn an English accent for the part.
