Adria Arjona oozes sex appeal. She embodies the quintessential leading actress: funny, sexy, and commands the screen. Her career has been a sort of slow burn consisting mostly of strong supporting roles. But, unlike a match, her career won’t fade slowly. Instead, it’s growing into a beautiful inferno.

Fans likely know Arjona from her breakout role in Disney+’s Star Wars prequel, Andor, but her best roles have come in the supporting and lead roles she has taken on in movies.

Her first notable role was as a supporting character in Pacific Rim, followed by a minor role in Triple Frontier. But it was seeing her in Zoe Kravitz’s Blink Twice that made us go, “Okay, who is that?” She dominates the screen, forcing you to hold her gaze and drink in every word she says. She’s a boss on screen and off, often taking on producing credits for films she stars in.

She and Glenn Powell were a dynamic force of nature in Hit Man, where their chemistry was off the charts. She was witty beyond belief in the comedy Splitsville alongside Dakota Johnson. Arjona was not afraid to get dirty in the action film Onslaught, which had her fighting bad guys to protect her character’s daughter.

Her decade in the movie industry has led her here: a leading role in Michael B. Jordan’s adaptation of The Thomas Crown Affair. Our screens are already on fire from the sparks that will fly between this duo. We can’t think of two hotter, more talented people to share a screen. And that’s not even everything Arjona has coming up. She’s also set to star in an Amazon Prime series called Criminal. There are even rumors she’ll take on Wonder Woman in the next Superman movie.

Arjona is one of the hottest young actresses working. She’s like a modern day Julia Roberts: all the charm and charisma but also one hell of an actress. If you don’t know her now, you will soon. And if you already know her, well, then you know how right we are.
