Being the new Bond girl is just one of her many upcoming groundbreaking roles. She's slated to star as Marilyn Monroe in a Netflix movie. Written by Andrew Dominic and produced by Brad Pitt, Blonde will see the Cuban actress portraying Norma Jeane Mortenson as she blossoms into the iconic movie star.

She has previously shared her thoughts on landing these highly-coveted Hollywood roles. "These roles are definitely rare. That’s my fight and I always try to go for them when they come up," she told Harper's Bazaar. "As a woman and a Latina, it’s pretty challenging. I have two separate labels to fight against, but I know I just have to stay strong and true to what I believe in."
