The upcoming Marilyn Monroe movie is intentionally trying to be controversial and to make its viewers feel uncomfortable, according to star Ana de Armas. Speaking to Empire, de Armas said director Andrew Dominik "did not compromise" on his vision, "not once."

The film, which is based on the novel of the same name and is Netflix's first NC-17 original movie, blurs the line between fact and fiction. It is not a traditional biopic. de Armas said, "It's a film that is supposed to create controversy and discomfort."

The movie features a vaginal POV shot and scenes depicting conversations with a fetus. There is also a scene involving sexual assault by a studio boss. "It's supposed to make you think about what happened--and what is still happening," de Armas said. "It's revolutionary, and I think it's so brave."

Its controversial content doesn't aim to be gratuitous, de Armas said. "It always came from great respect [for] and understanding of that trauma," she said. "Despite the NC-17 rating, I never felt that there was anything exploitative. This movie is meant to be an experience, to move along with her feelings, what she's going through. And that, unfortunately, takes what it takes."

"Whether we were shooting an abortion scene, dealing with abuse, nudity, happy sex, unhappy sex, it is so important to show the reality of it," she said.

Before this, Dominik said Blonde aims to "offend everyone" who sees it. Viewers can decide for themselves when Blonde comes to Netflix on September 23.

In other news, new Blonde images have been released that show de Armas and co-stars Bobby Cannavale as Joe DiMaggio and Adrien Brody as Monroe's husband, the playwright Arthur Miller.

In addition to Blonde, de Armas will play the lead role in the John Wick spinoff, Ballerina. She also recently discussed the future of the James Bond series, saying Bond should not be played by a woman.

Well she did lived a torturous life that Elton John wrote a song about her.

I thought you meant he wrote song about Ana lol

Not complaining but does it need vaginal pov in a movie about Marilyn? 😀

She (Ana De Armas) seems to be everywhere at the moment, the current “It” girl. They gave her a cool 15-min cameo in the latest Bond which heavily suggests a spin off in mind, but now she got the John Wick spin off instead. She looks quite good I guess but for someone whose English is not first language, it’s good achievement to have so many new big film roles.

Outside of the US, she is only iconic for that upskirt pix.

The problem with “it” girl is they usually burnout after some time.

Look at what happened to Alicia Silverstone, Jessica Alba, Megan Fox, etc. and even Margot Robbie also seems to start to fade.

Megan Fox because she had a fallout with big names during transformers. But yes, Alicia Silverstone, and surprisingly Jessica Alba both suffered the same fate. Winona Ryder making a comeback due to stranger things.

I never noticed that until you mentioned it.
But yeah, same with Gal Gadot eho was in everything last time.

Ngl. She has nice tits
