On August 26, Netflix dropped the highly anticipated first trailer for the Spanish-language French film, which promises to be an “audacious fever dream that defies genres and expectations.”
In the film, she stars as a Mexican cartel leader attempting to fake her death while transitioning as she nears retirement.
Saldaña and Gomez join the ensemble cast alongside Adriana Paz and Edgar Ramírez.
In a dazzling blend of song, dance, and striking visuals, Pérez takes audiences on an exhilarating journey through Mexico, spotlighting the lives of four extraordinary women each in pursuit of their own happiness.
The film centers on Rita, a lawyer trapped in a monotonous job, who is enlisted by the formidable cartel leader Emilia to orchestrate her own death.
This daring ruse is Emilia’s bid to finally embrace her true self and live authentically.
Written and directed by acclaimed French filmmaker Jacques Audiard, Emilia Pérez captivated audiences at Cannes this May, earning two prestigious awards, including Best Actress for its remarkable ensemble cast of women.
