Ana de Armas Says Jamie Lee Curtis Was A Huge Supporter For Her as Marilyn Monroe in 'Blonde'

Ana de Armas is opening up about her special friendship with Knives Out co-star Jamie Lee Curtis.

In a recent interview with Flaunt magazine, the 32-year-old actress revealed that Jamie has been a huge support for her in her career. Especially when it came to her Blonde role as Marilyn Monroe.

“She is my biggest cheerleader…” Ana shared of Jamie. “I showed her my screen test for Marilyn and of course I had on like a random wig they found which didn’t fit me, so-so make up and so-so wardrobe but even then, seeing me in the part like that, she got very excited.”

Ana added about her role as the iconic late actress and model, “I’m not going to let anybody or anything tell me I cannot dream of playing Marilyn Monroe… Things need to change [in the industry] but you have to actively push for change too… you have to present your version of the character in a different way. You have to challenge.”
