After her appearance in the new Bond movie, she will play Marilyn Monroe in a biopic titled “Blonde”. She got the role as soon as she came to the audition, since Andrew Dominic liked her so much for the lead.

From 2011 to 2013, Armas was married to Marc Clotet. This is one of the only things people know about her private life, since she is very secretive about it.
