Qualley appears in the films The Nice Guys (2016), Death Note (2017) and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), and the video games Death Stranding (2019) and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (2025).

Qualley has since appeared in Yorgos Lanthimos's films Poor Things (2023) and Kinds of Kindness (2024), and earned a second Golden Globe nomination for her performance in the body horror film The Substance (2024).
