How Dolly De Leon Is Changing The Game For Filipino Actors

We chatted with our very own Golden Globe nominee before she flew out for the international red carpet premiere of the Hulu series "Nine Perfect Strangers," which is premiering this May 22 on Prime Video. Miss Dolly, as I love to call her, always looks the part of a Top 10 best-dressed celebrity. We talked about her inclusion in the second season of Hulu's "Nine Perfect Strangers" that marks a watershed moment — not just for Filipino representation on an international stage, but for the evolution of global storytelling itself.

From her breakout role in "Triangle of Sadness" three years ago as Agnes, Dolly continues to defy borders and stereotypes.
