As Ana de Armas herself recently commented during an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, when she obtained the proposal to play Marta Cabrerahe rejected her and refused to audition, since she believed that the character fed stereotypes of Latina women.
However, once she had the script in her hands and was able to discover the entire plot and emotional charge that the role contained, she saw that it was a good opportunity and that "Marta was much more" than a pretty face.
In addition toKnives Out, Ana de Armas has participated this year in other juicy films that will be released in the coming months. Among them we find the twenty-fifth installment of the James Bond saga, No Time to Die andBlonde, in which he steps into the shoes of the missing star Marilyn Monroe.
