Ana de Armas claims her place in Hollywood
After surprising locals and strangers alike with his role in ‘Daggers in the Back’, by Armas will claim his acting skills again in ‘Blonde’the controversial Netflix production directed by Andrew Dominik —’The murder of Jesse James by the cowardly Robert Ford’— in which she will give life to the eternal Norma Jeane, better known as Marilyn Monroe.

In the meantime, she leaves you with the official synopsis for ‘Blonde’.
