[10] She also received the Best New Hollywood Award for this film at the 2011 Hollywood Film Awards. [17]

She appeared alongside Gossip Girl actor Ed Westwick in Chalet Girl , a romantic comedy released in March 2011, for which she had to undergo two months of snowboarding training and work undercover in a chalet at St Anton, scrubbing toilets and partying at the Krazy Kanguruh bar in preparation for the role. [10] Jones said that the role was "something of a relief" after a string of costume roles and she was also keen to take on a comic role. [3] Jones performed in Luise Miller, a new translation of Schiller's Kabale und Liebe by Mike Poulton at the Donmar Warehouse theatre in London, in June and July 2011.

In 2013, Jones portrayed Ellen Ternan in The Invisible Woman . Jones, previously unfamiliar with Ternan, learned about her life through research, [20] and reflected that she knew she was "in for a challenge" when choosing to work on the film, citing the experience of director Ralph Fiennes and how "methodically done" his performance was. [21] She also appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 , which was released on 2 May 2014. She played Felicia Hardy; an assistant of Harry Osborn. [22] [23] Jones signed on due to its difference from her previous works. [24]

In 2014, Jones portrayed Jane Wilde Hawking in the film The Theory of Everything , a biopic charting the life and love between Wilde Hawking and the world-renowned physicist Stephen Hawking, with Eddie Redmayne starring as Hawking. After being given the script by her agent, Jones read it in its entirety in one sitting, and said that she enjoyed that it was a "love story and not a straightforward biopic." She auditioned for the film and its director, James Marsh, offered the part immediately after, surprising Jones who was accustomed to waiting several weeks for a confirmation. [25] Jones was aided by Jane Hawking in preparing for the role, meeting with her. [26] The film has been praised largely due to her and Redmayne's performances. Jane Hawking was so impressed by the portrayal she wondered if it was herself when watching Jones.

In February 2015, she was cast as Jyn Erso in the Star Wars stand-alone film Rogue One , with Gareth Edwards directing. [27] Jones's agent recommended the role to her, [28] and she enjoyed the character's search for an identity, drawing inspiration in her movements from Ronda Rousey. [29] The film was released in December 2016 to positive reviews and grossed over $1 billion at the box office. Also in 2016, Jones starred in Inferno , playing a doctor aiding Robert Langdon in his escape. After agreeing to the role, she visited museums and galleries to understand her character better. [30] Jones enjoyed the chemistry between her and Tom Hanks's characters as well as Inferno's overall diversity. [31]

In 2017, Jones was announced as a global brand ambassador for Clé de Peau Beauté. [32]

In late 2018, Jones starred in On the Basis of Sex , a biography of United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, directed by Mimi Leder and co-starring Armie Hammer and Justin Theroux. [33] She then reunited on-screen with Redmayne in the biographical adventure The Aeronauts (2019), joined George Clooney in Netflix's science fiction film The Midnight Sky (2020), and starred in the romantic drama The Last Letter from Your Lover (2021), an adaptation of Jojo Moyes' 2011 novel of the same name.

Jones will next star in the thriller Borderland, alongside Aml Ameen, Mark Strong and Sophia Brown. [34] In May 2022, it was announced that she will lead Simon Amstell's comedy Maria, co-starring Jonathan Bailey. [35]
