(ANSA) – ROME, 06 NOV – “I had my first daughter at 39, the second at 44, at 50 I became a Bond girl, at 55 I made my debut in the theater. I have my time! The beauty is to be called, without pawing, which is not in my nature, the important thing is to always have projects to join with enthusiasm. How could I say no to this about Maria Callas? Even if it meant facing the audience live for the first time “: Monica Bellucci talks about herself and also talks about the show directed by Tom Volf which after its debut at the Spoleto festival resumed after the lockdown with great success throughout Europe, from Paris to Lisbon, Athens and then London and which now also arrives in Italy in Milan ( Teatro Manzoni, November 21), Rome (Sala Sinopoli, November 22 and 23) and Venice (Goldoni Theater, November 26 and 27).

Bellucci, who will also receive the Stella della Mole 2021 award in Turin, will be in the hall in December with the comedy by Paola Randi, La Befana vien di notte 2, in which she plays the good witch. And then international films such as Memory, action thriller with Liam Neeson, and the filming of the American comedy Mama Mafia with Toni Collette directed by the director of Twilight, Catherine Hardwicke, and a top secret project of a TV series.
“A lot of work, I’m happy, then of course there is to be organized and this always upsets me a bit, as happens to everyone else in reconciling family and work, I have my girls to follow”.
At 57, she doesn’t like to look back: “Everyone’s path is based on the yes and no they have said, on successes and failures”. I am moved by the enthusiasm, by the curiosity, by the excitement of a new project, to always learn and ultimately to play. “And the time that passes?” I have accepted it for quite a while “. (ANSA).
