Pinch me, I’m dreaming, it’s Dolly de Leon! Get to know the
Triangle of Sadness breakout star like you’ve never known her
before in our candid and revealing chat. Behind her Golden Globe
and BAFTA nominations, LA Critics’ Best Supporting Performance
award, "30 of the World's Most Famous Stars” citation by British
Vogue, and other accolades is the story of “a struggling, angry,
bitter, desperate actor trying to support her family of four
kids, saying yes to every job but never hating it and never
complaining about it.”

Dolly shares how she overcame the most trying moments in her life
and what kept her going and believing—because it would take 33
years of playing nameless and line-less characters in movies
before she would finally get her first lead role in local
mainstream cinema in A Very Good Girl opposite Kathryn Bernardo,
and even more Hollywood productions such as Grand Death Lotto
with Awkwafina, Simu Liu, and John Cena; Between the Temples with
Jason Schwartzman and 9 Perfect Strangers with Nicole Kidman.

Most important of all, now that she has a louder voice and a
global platform, Dolly speaks about advocating for social justice
in her industry and country, as well as the importance of
kindness and generosity in making the world a better place. You
