What Ana de Armas Movies Are on Netflix? - Netflix Tudum
Ana de Armas is on fire. Not literally — although she comes perilously close a few times in the new Russo brothers thriller The Gray Man. No, de Armas is on fire in a much more appealing way. Over the past few years, she’s become one of the most mesmerizing new stars on the planet. Whether appearing in sci-fi blockbusters or pretzel-like whodunits, de Armas is a sparkling, scene-stealing screen presence. The Gray Man is merely her latest showcase in a run that will continue this fall in Andrew Dominik’s surreal Marilyn Monroe story Blonde. Where can you get your fix in the meantime? We’re here to help. Below, you’ll find a guide to the many faces of Ana de Armas — from titles currently streaming on Netflix to those further afield.
Blonde
In Blonde, de Armas transforms into iconic starlet Marilyn Monroe — but this story isn’t quite the one you might read in your Hollywood history books. The film paints Monroe’s life as a psychological horror story, one that dances back and forth from painstaking recreations of Monroe’s onscreen work to surreal sequences that dive into her traumatized psyche. Through it all, de Armas is nothing less than bewitching, tackling a grueling role with the grace and charm of a true movie star. This isn’t a celebrity impression; it’s a bold and brutal reimagining that won de Armas her first Oscar nomination, the first Cuban-born performer to be honored by the Academy.
The Gray Man
In the new action thriller from the directors of Avengers: Endgame, de Armas plays Dani Miranda, a CIA operative swept up in the pursuit of Sierra Six — a top-secret (and notoriously deadly) assassin as played by Ryan Gosling. Miranda is a loyal soldier, but as the chase goes on, she finds herself more and more entangled with Six. And she’ll need to decide which side she’s really on. It’s a bone-crunchingly physical performance for de Armas, who holds her own alongside the film’s many stuntmen and action heroes.
War Dogs
Sergio
Oddly enough, War Dogs isn’t de Armas’ only go at an Iraq War drama. In this 2020 biopic, she plays Carolina, a young woman in a relationship with United Nations representative Sérgio Vieira de Mello (Wagner Moura). The film tackles the aftermath of the United States’ invasion of Iraq, and de Mello’s part in fighting against the country’s occupation. De Armas, playing a UN official in her own right, commands the screen.
Wasp Network
Like Sergio,this 2020 Olivier Assayas film also features de Armas and Wagner Moura in a romantic entanglement — here she plays his character’s wife. Assayas, who directed the gorgeously haunting Personal Shopper, takes on the story of Cuban spies in the United States in the 1990s. Sharing the screen with Penélope Cruz, Édgar Ramírez, and Gael García Bernal, de Armas has a smaller role, but she proves that sometimes less is more.
