Curtis admits she initially made an incorrect assumption about the Cuban-born actress when the two first met on 'Knives Out' (via toofab)
Meanwhile, during her interview with Elle, de Armas spoke candidly about her career, including how she sometimes feels like she doesn't fully fit in with the artist communities in Cuba, Spain or America.
Her career began in her native Cuba, before then, at 18, she moved to Spain, where she primarily starred in television shows. de Armas then moved to Los Angeles at 26, before later"I feel sometimes that I'm not part of the Cuban artist community, and then I was in Spain and I feel like I'm not part of the community there -- especially because in Spain, I did more TV than movies," she said."And then I'm here, and I feel like I'm not there yet either.
As a Latina playing Marilyn Monroe, de Armas shared that while she's interested in portraying Latina roles, she said she doesn't want the character's ethnicity to define them."I do want to play Latina. But I don't want to put a basket of fruit on my head every single time," de Armas said."So that's my hope, that I can show that we can do anything if we're given the time to prepare, and if we're given just the chance, just the chance.
The Golden Globe nominee went on to discuss how Hollywood is, fortunately, improving when it comes to diversity. "It's definitely changing; it’s getting better. But it's hard to know now, being in my position, because I know it's not the same for everybody," de Armas said."And I feel like it’s coming from filmmakers, that diversity has become a must. You have to do the right thing. Thank God."
