Emilia Pérez star Karla Sofía Gascón reveals most surprising reaction from viewers

by

As a gamer with a keen eye for detail and a heart for stories that resonate deeply, I found myself utterly captivated by the powerful performance of Karla Sofía Gascón in Emilia Pérez. Her portrayal of Manitas and Emilia Pérez is nothing short of mesmerizing, a testament to her versatility as an actress.

In the film titled Emilia Pérez, Karla Sofía Gascón delivers an outstanding, potentially career-defining role. However, it appears that some spectators are only acknowledging half of her impressive performance.

In an interview with Digital Spy, the Spanish actress expressed her astonishment at not being recognized in the Netflix film, where she played the role of Mexican cartel leader Manitas, who subsequently underwent a gender-affirming transformation to become Emilia Pérez.

Gascón thinks it’s “a huge compliment,” but she confesses it’s also “a little frustrating.”

As a gamer, I’m often taken aback when folks who’ve seen the movie ask me, “Hey, where’s the character actor for Manitas? I didn’t see him anywhere.” It’s fascinating how they miss that he’s not actually a visible character in the game.

As a fan myself, I can’t help but feel flattered when people don’t recognize me, neither as a person nor as an actress. It’s truly humbling to be able to lose myself in a role, and altering my voice is just one of the ways I achieve that transformation.

“I take great pride in the fact that nobody recognizes me during the initial segment of the film. On a more self-centered note, I believe many viewers will exit the theater unaware that I portray both roles throughout the entire storyline. It’s amusing and delightful, but also somewhat aggravating.” (Paraphrased to make the language natural and easy to read)

Gascón also discussed the significant influence that Emilia Pérez has exerted following her debut at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, where she received both the Jury Prize and the award for Best Actress in the lead role.

I strongly believe that this movie could make a significant impact on the annals of cinema, transcending its medium. Moreover, the character of Emilia Pérez, powerfully portrayed in the film, is poised to bring about change in social spheres, resonating with viewers like myself and those who collaborated on the project.

This carries a message of happiness and optimism for all humankind. I find it marvelous, and being part of such a tiny segment contributing to the making of history is simply astounding. (Paraphrased)

Furthermore, MCU actress Zoe Saldaña and Selena Gomez from “Only Murders in the Building” are contributing significantly to Emilia Pérez’s growing list of award-worthy performances.

For Gascón, it’s an “indescribable” movie.

This film explores the concept of love. After all, who truly comprehends love better than those who have experienced it? It seems that many have heard numerous tales about this movie, yet it wasn’t until they watched it in the theater that they fully grasped its meaning.

Feel free to choose any audio content that suits you, we could potentially conduct up to 200,000 conversations, view countless movie previews, and rest assured, the cinema experience you’ll encounter will be unique and exhilarating, leaving you with a sense of soaring.

Emilia Pérez is now available to watch on Netflix.
