In December, Ana completed a starring role in writer-director Rian Johnson’s modern-day murder mystery, Knives Out, starring apposite Daniel Craig and Chris Evans. The film will be released by Lionsgate in the US on November 27, 2019.  Ana is currently in production on the spy drama, Wasp Network, directed by Olivier Assayas. She co-stars opposite Edgar Ramirez, Penélope Cruz, and Wagner Moura.

Prior to that, Ana starred opposite Wagner Moura in the Netflix biopic feature, Sergio. The film focuses on the life and work of the Brazilian, United Nations diplomat, Sergio Vieira de Mello.
