Brad Pitt recently defended his lead actress by saying:
“She is phenomenal in it. That’s a tough dress to fill. It was 10 years in the making. It wasn’t until we found Ana that we could get it across the finish line.”
He stated that it would not have been possible to finish the film if they hadn’t found Ana de Armas to fill the shoes. As for the role, Marilyn Monroe had a lot of followers which she still does. She was an icon in Hollywood and an inspiration for many. To be in her shoes and act out her life takes a lot of guts, something which Ana de Armas clearly has enough of.
The upcoming movie Blonde will also feature Adrian Brody as Arthur Miller and Casper Phillipson as John F. Kennedy. The movie will release on Netflix on 23rd September 2022.
