We review everything we know about ‘Blonde’, the Netflix adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’ bestseller in which Ana de Armas will be Marilyn Monroe herself.
Ana de Armas is eating Hollywood. The actress of ‘El internado’ has always had a star, Antonio Trashorras chose her for ‘El callejón’ (2011) for a reason, but not even her staunchest fans saw it coming to what extent the interpreter’s international career would explode in such a short time weather.
After ‘Knock Knock’ (Eli Roth, 2015) and ‘Gun Game’ (Todd Phillips, 2016), the mainstream could not resist and surrendered to the evidence, making de Armas the star of ‘Blade Runner 2049’ (Denis Villeneuve, 2017), ‘Daggers in the Back’ (Rian Johnson, 2019) and the recent ‘No Time to Die’ (Cary Joji Fukunaga, 2021), adding the old-fashioned but equally exciting “Bond girl” label to her impressive resume.
I work for the legendary Adrian Lyne in his latest film, ‘Deep Waters’ (along with Ben Affleck, his ex-partner)which adapted Patricia Highsmith’s novel of the same name, and now It will be Marilyn Monroe herself in ‘Blonde’.
‘Blonde’: Release date
‘Blonde’ is already finished but does not yet have a scheduled release date. With Netflix in charge of its distribution, it could anticipate its expected presentation at the 2023 Sundance Festivaland finally reach the end of 2022.
‘Blonde’: Synopsis
‘Blonde’ is based on the Joyce Carol Oates bestseller and will finally have an adults-only rating. Industry sources point out that Netflix was “horrified” by the very sexual vision of Andrew Dominik, but the project has still moved forward. The only thing the channel has changed from its very adult original version (complete with menstrual cunnilingus and rape) is hire the editor of ‘Tenet’, Jennifer Lame, to polish the impact that its director seeks.
Apparently, according to industry sources, Dominik’s version of the story was not at all what they expected to see from Netflix, and based on creative differences The delays of a film that, for the moment, still has no official release date were explained in 2021.
Andrew Dominic is responsible forchopper‘ (2000), ‘The murder of Jesse James by the cowardly Robert Ford‘ (2007) and ‘Kill them softly‘ (2012).
