After getting into acting young, jennaortega built a career out of clever slashers like Ti West’s X, the Scream reboots, and Megan Park’s powerful school-shooting drama, The Fallout. But being the face of the most popular English-language series on Netflix has granted her a new level of creative control. Along with her starring role, she served as an executive producer on A24's latest release Death of a Unicorn. When the script arrived in her inbox several years ago, she read it in one sitting, which is a litmus test for projects at a time when she can afford to be picky. Ortega had the impossible job of keeping a straight face amid the chaos of a unicorn rampage involving Will Poulter’s short-shorts-wearing, unicorn-horn-snorting heir character. “You know when you laugh so hard you cry?” she says. “I used that as emotion.” Read the full profile by thephoebeiknow at the link in bio.
