Ariadna Gutierrez is ready for her close-up now.
The Miss Colombia beauty may not have won the Miss Universe pageant, but thanks in-part to Steve Harvey, Gutierrez is having the last laugh with her first movie role as Vin Diesel’s love interest in “xXx: The Return of Xander Cage”.
Having already cast Deepika Padukone, Ruby Rose, and Nina Dobrev, it looks like “xXx: The Return of Xander Cage” won’t have a shortage of female eye candy with Gutierrez set to spice things up on the big screen. Although the beauty queen will only be playing a small role in the movie, her part is not insignificant. TMZ reported that she will be in 6 scenes and has 3 pages worth of dialogue.
It’s good to know that Gutierrez is taking advantage of her newfound fame ever since last year’s pageant host Steve Harvey made a questionable mistake when he announced her as the winner of Miss Universe instead of Miss Philippines. Turns out, what seemed like a terrible nightmare at the time was a blessing in disguise.
Case in point: Look at who’s headed to Hollywood.
