The Super Mario Bros. Movie2023as Princess Peach (voice)Our takeThe film works best as a story about persistence becoming cooperation. Mario’s willingness to keep trying matters, but his brother’s loyalty gives that determination its purpose. The final victory belongs to two people who refuse to leave one another behind.
Dune: Part Two2024as Alia Atreides (uncredited)Our takeChani is the film's moral point of view. While Stilgar sees proof of destiny in everything Paul does, Chani sees choices being disguised as fate. Her final departure makes the ending more than a coronation: it is the moment the person who knows Paul most intimately refuses the myth he has chosen to inhabit.Profile and filmography data from TMDB.
