The Queen’s Gambit’s Anya-Taylor Joy joined bubblegum-popping Brit Tom Holland and his Spider-Man co-star Zendaya, all 24, in the issue.
Meanwhile Oscar-winner Viola Davis, 55, came up smelling of roses in her floral snap.
Kate recently spoke about falling victim to damaging scrutiny of her looks thanks to finding fame.
Talking of a time when she was dubbed “weighty Katie,” she said: “It’s completely diabolical, disgraceful and harmful, and messed with my head, made me feel deeply insecure, paranoid, just really awful.

“I’ve only ever been a normal shape, it’s just that I wasn’t skinny and those were the days of skinny young waifish things. Because I wasn’t that, I was labelled as ‘curvy’ or ‘busty.’
“I don’t think we draw as much attention to leading actresses’ body shapes now, but I do think we comment much more on what actresses look like than actors.”
She also admitted her role in disaster film Contagion meant she was one step ahead when Covid hit.
The 2011 movie about a global pandemic was even mentioned by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who said it had influenced his vaccine policy.

While the rest of us only cottoned on to wearing face masks last summer, Kate’s research on the film led her to start wearing them a year ago.
She said: “It did prepare me really well. I knew what a KN95 mask was long before the next person.
“I was wearing masks from February and walking down the streets in Philadelphia where I was working wearing a mask. People would stare at me like I was crazy.”
