The Cuban heartthrob Ana de Armas has gained recognition in Hollywood from playing Paloma in the movie James Bond No Time To Die(2021) to playing the role of Norma Jean in the movie Blonde (2022). The 35-year-old Hollywood actress also became the first Cuban actress to get nominated for the Academy Awards for Best Actress category for the movie Blonde.
Post James Bond, Blonde, and Knives Out, Ana de Armas is now on the news due to a Fan art showing her as the supervillain of DC Universe, Poison Ivy. This character was first introduced by DCU back in 1977 in the film Batman and Robin (1977). Uma Thurman played the character of Poison Ivy, and she nailed it. But that was 25 years ago, and times have changed, and maybe the Cuban actress is ready to fill in the shoes of Poison Ivy.

Many of the DCU fans even compared the Cuban Hollywood actress to that of Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn and how the No Time to Die actress as Poison Ivy can live up to the expectations. Even in the last few years, the character of Poison Ivy as a fan art has gone viral, and every time it has been about Ana de Armas.

The fan art is a close-up look of the Blonde actress where it can be seen that she has skin colored sickly green. Her hair is portrayed in the color of autumn red, and the most interesting feature is the smokey eye makeup and the usage of leaves all over her. The look is completely justified, as compared to Uma Thurman’s Poison Ivy and it goes with the essence of the character.
Can Ana De Armas Play Poison Ivy Play In The DCU?
It has been confirmed that both James Gunn and Safran have plans to expand the DC Universe in the next 8 to 10 years and it will include everything starting from Anime, TV shows, and comics to Online games. So, the story of Poison Ivy can be taken into consideration in the upcoming years, but whether the 35-year-old Hollywood actress gets a chance or not isn’t confirmed.
Poison Ivy is known to seduce both men and women alike and often uses phenomenon to do so, it is to be said that she can even have control over Superman. However, she will need Kryptonite to get into work, but even without it, she can make the most potent toxins in Gotham City.
With the recent disclosure by James Gunn, it has been confirmed that Suicide Squad 3 isn’t happening any time soon, which might be a surprise to many. But new characters might get introduced and there is no harm in imagining the cinematic love story of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy in the same film.
Currently, Ana de Armas is getting ready for the role of a ballerina named Rooney in the upcoming spinoff of the John Wick franchise titled Ballerina.
