BLADE RUNNER 2049 Breakout Ana De Armas Makes The Future A Brighter Place In New GQ Photoshoot

Despite being nothing short of incredible, Blade Runner 2049 was not a hit at the box office. There could be any number of reasons for that (those cryptic trailers and the long running time probably didn't help) but the sequel will probably wind up being every bit the cult hit its predecessor was. Regardless, one thing we can all agree on is that Ana De Armas managed to steal the show as Joi.

Her mesmerising performance here was a definite highlight and the work she and Ryan Gosling did together was definitely memorable, as was the sequel's pretty creative use of an A.I. character (something we've seen a lot of over the years, hence why many of them tend to just blend into one).

Now, the actress has posed for the popular GQ Magazine and you can find the entire gallery of images right here. She looks every bit as stunning as she did as the A.I. we saw in Denis Villeneuve's epic sci-fi masterpiece and we're sure you'll all have no problem coming up with who she could play in the Marvel or DC Universes. So, click either one of the buttons below to check out all these photos!

Ana de Armas was raised in Havana, Cuba. She decided to become an actress at age 12 and went on to star in a number of Spanish TV shows and movies before arriving in Hollywood with Knock Knock.

From there, the actress landed roles in movies like Hands of Stone and War Dogs but her biggest role to date came when she was chosen to play Joi in Denis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049 last year.

Despite delivering a star-making performance in the acclaimed movie, de Armas only has Three Seconds (based on the novel of the same name) on the way in 2018 but surely that will change?

Blade Runner 2049 may not have been a box office hit (possibly because of the long running time or those cryptic trailers) but studios surely realise that the actress has a bright future ahead of her!

When it comes to a superhero role, it's hard to single any one character out as they're pretty much all taken these days! However, you have to believe Marvel or DC could find something for the actress.

She is a stonce cold fox, I would want nothing more than to invite her to Latveria and show her my scepter of power.

Man its been a while since we got one of these articles; still not sure how this is newsworthy. She is gorgeous though.

She was the only good thing about that dreadful movie.

Feh. You can keep Joi. Luv was the hot one.

VileBlood - 3/28/2018, 9:44 AM

@Indoorsman - Yeah but Luv might snap you in half if she's ordered to whereas Joi just wants to make you happy.
