Ana de Armas has made headlines once again, but this time, it’s actually because of something other than her infatuating beauty. The 32-year-old actress has become extremely popular for her award-nominated movie roles, and for being the girlfriend to another famous actor Ben Affleck.
She met the renowned star on the set of “Deep Water” in the fall of 2019. Since then, the two of them kicked it off with a bang and the paparazzi has relentlessly followed them wherever they go.

Although the publicity is generally good, it isn’t always convenient. Affleck’s kids placed a cardboard cutout of Ana in the front yard to play a bit of a prank on the paparazzi June 5.
Fans and readers found this hilarious! The idea to leave this life-sized likeness of Ana on the front lawn came about after Ana and the kids could be seen playing with cutout. After they finished having fun together, they thought it would be in good fun to leave the cutout visible for those passing by.

Although not officially recognized as a model, Ana’s career as an actress has given her many opportunities to leave a mind-blowing impression after appearing on numerous magazine covers.
From skimpy lingerie to ornate outfits, Ana struts her stuff with impressive confidence as her career continues to progress. Stardom came after her role in “Blade Runner” (2017) and since then the sky has been the limit.
Her Instagram is filled with beautiful pictures and amazing behind the scenes photos from her previous movies.

As a Cuban-Spanish actress, Ana has expressed distaste for how the media often portrays Latina women. In fact, she nearly declined her renowned role in “Knives Out” after her character was only described as, "Latina caretaker, pretty".
While the actress didn’t find fault directly with the description, she originally thought the role lacked depth. She didn’t want to be a stereotype:
"Or else it's 'sexy with a temper.' And it's who we are," de Armas said. "There's nothing wrong with it so long as it's not only that. That's what I have a problem with."

She continued the interview with a sarcastic statement about how her character could have been portrayed, and concluded the discussion on a positive note.
Her ability to bring a creative light on an otherwise underdeveloped character is one of the reasons that she is set to appear in the upcoming James Bond film, "No Time to Die” where she will portray Marilyn Monroe.
Ben Affleck has stated how impressed he is with Ana as an actress on several occasions, and it isn’t hard to see why!
