Where you’ve seen her:
This stage-trained Italian goddess is making her big-screen English-language debut in Van Helsing, playing Verona, a raven-haired, pale-skinned, black-hearted lady friend of Lucifer.
Red between the lines:
“I’m quite shy, so if there’s a guy I like, I actually ignore him because I can’t speak to him. I get all red and sweaty, and it’s embarrassing.”
Patriot games:
“Italian girls are famous for being snobby and expecting men to make the first move. In America, if I don’t make eye contact, the guys won’t come over and talk. American girls just go for it. You men are spoiled!”
Teen spirit:
“When I was 17, my friends and I went to this seedy trattoria with awful red wine because we just wanted to get drunk. I got back home, and my mom was still up. She tried to talk to me, but I was too drunk. I spent the whole night in the bathroom throwing up.”
