Cuba

Moving between cinematic worlds

Ana de Armas is a Cuban-born actor born on 30 April 1988. She began her screen career in Cuba and Spain before taking on roles in English-language films.

In Blade Runner 2049 she plays Joi, an artificial intelligence companion whose relationship with K raises questions about intimacy and programmed behavior. The character gives the film’s futuristic setting a personal, uncertain emotional dimension.

She later played nurse Marta Cabrera in Knives Out and portrayed Marilyn Monroe in Blonde. The latter performance earned her an Academy Award nomination for leading actress.

Her other work includes No Time to Die and Ballerina. The films listed below come from the FLM.RED catalogue and do not represent her complete filmography.
