The actor spoke with TODAY about bringing Norma Jeane to life.
The almost three-hour drama digs deep into Norma Jeane’s traumatic childhood and life in the spotlight. Her tumultuous and abusive relationships with two of her three husbands — baseball player Joe DiMaggio and playwright Arthur Miller — and rumored affair with John F. Kennedy depicts a fragile woman in search of love and dealing with mental health issues.
“Unfortunately, my schedule was really crazy and completely unplanned, and I finished shooting ‘Blonde’ on a Friday and I started shooting James Bond on Monday,” the actor said. “So Paloma was kind of my therapy to let this go.” Aside from the NC-17 rating, the film made headlines after the release of the official trailer. Viewers saw de Armas as Marilyn with her signature blonde hair, red lips and beauty mark. She also spoke in an accent that didn’t directly impersonate the icon’s voice.“I was interested in her feelings, her journey, her insecurities, and her voice, in the sense that she didn’t really have one,” she added., despite the estate not authorizing the film.
