(Watch) Ana de Armas Jumps Out Front for 2023 Oscar Race as Marilyn Monroe in “Blonde”

Share

We have our first Oscar nominee for Best Actress, 2023: Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe in “Blonde.”

Yes, Michelle Williams was excellent in “MY Week with Marilyn.” But this movie icon has a lot of stories to tell.

Andrew Dominik has directed this NC-17 movie for Netflix.

Based on the novel of the same name by Joyce Carol Oates, “Blonde,” stars de Armas, Adrien Brody, Bobby Cannavale, Xavier Samuel, and Julianne Nicholson premieres on Netflix, September 28th.

Netflix should be happy. This has Oscar written all over it. And de Armas is thrilled that everyone will have forgotten “The Gray Man” by then.
