Argentinian beauty Nazarena NĆ³bile will be making her debut in U.S. cinemas later this year with roles in the upcoming feature films āSummer Nightā and āIntolerance: No More.ā
Directed by Satellite Award winner Joseph Cross āSummer Nightā stars Victoria Justice (āVictorious,ā āZoey 101,ā āThe First Timeā), Justin Chatwin (āWar of the Worlds,ā āShamelessā) and Analeigh Tipton (āManhattan Love Story,ā āTwo Night Standā).
āJoseph Cross is amazing. He is such a wonderful person. I mean, I knew him as an actor but he surprised me as a director,ā says NĆ³bile. āHe is such a nice guy. And his wife and his little daughter Amelia is a sweetheart. In fact, she played my baby daughter in the film.ā
Prior to making the move to the U.S. with her husband Juan Baldini three years ago, NĆ³bile Ā established herself as an actress through featured roles on several popular Telemundo series such as the multi-award winning show āSilvana Sin Lana,ā as well as āQuien es Quienā and āEva la Trailera.ā
Aside from her onscreen reputation in Latin America, NĆ³bile emphasizes the help ofĀ producer and fellow Argentinian, Angel Cassani (āNever Surrender,ā āThe Pastorā), in connecting her with the right people in the states and sparking her transition into the U.S. film industry.
She explains, āI met Joseph Cross and producer Tara Ansley thanks to Angel Cassani. We met through a skype conference because I was in Buenos Aires at that time, my father had health issues and I had to keep him company for a few months last year. And suddenly they told me there was a part for me. I played Harmonyās sister… It was a small part but I was so happy to be involved in that movie. It was my first important project in LA and I truly appreciate they had thought of me for that.ā
In the upcoming film āSummer Nightā NĆ³bileās character is the disturbed sister of the lead character Harmony who is played by Victoria Justice.
āItās about growing upā¦. And how difficult it is to go from adolescence to grown up life,ā says NĆ³bile about the film.
In the upcoming film āIntolerance: No More,ā a cop drama directed by Sergio Guerrero who earned the Cartagena Film Festivalās Ā Golden India Catalina Award and the Gramado Film Festivalās Special Jury Award for the film āA Day Without A Mexican,ā NĆ³bile will be taking on a larger role as Lucy, the wife of a cop whoās struggling with concepts of life, death and justice. Produced by Yeniffer Behrens (āThe Power of One,ā āEncounters,ā āBetween the Lightsā).
NĆ³bile says, āThe film is about the abuse of power, which is in the spotlight a lot these days. Itās a very interesting movie. And it is filmed in a very interesting way. I think itās gonna be a great surprise for a lot of people.ā
NĆ³bile also has a producer credit on the upcoming film āOn the Other Side,ā a film that centers on immigration and is currently in post production. Clearly this multi-talented Argentinian has been busy making moves in the states. She is also planning to relocate from Miami to Los Angeles very soon.
āIām so happy living in the US. I love this country, Miami, New York, Chicago, but Los Angeles is my favorite place in the world. I feel most at home there.ā
Though Nazarena NĆ³bile began acting as a child, it was actually while working as a journalist in Argentina that her name first became synonymous with ācelebrityā across Latin America. She admits, āI started to work as a journalist for very important Argentinian newspapers and TV networks. I mean, even though acting was my first and true love, journalism was my first important job in the entertainment industry.ā
And it was upon landing a recurring role on the entertainment show āIntrusos,ā Argentinaās version of āTMZ,ā where she was a regular entertainment journalist and panelist for several years, that NĆ³bile such a well-known figure across Latin America. Though she says she doesnāt regret the decision to move to the U.S., that doesnāt mean leaving her home country and her position at āIntrusosā behind didnāt bring some sadness.
āāIntrusosā is one of the most important TV shows in South America. It was very hard for me to leaveā she explains. āI love my country so much. Itās such a beautiful place to live. And the people are amazing there, Argentinians are very special people. I miss a lot of things.ā
But it seems as though sheās adapted to stateside living quite quickly as well. And with both āSummer Nightā and āIntolerance: No Moreā in post-production and expected to be released in the upcoming months, itās safe to say audience in the states who didnāt know NĆ³bile before, will definitely know her after.
