‘Emilia Perez’ Trailer: Selena Gomez and Zoe Saldaña Star in a Cannes-Winning Musical That’s Now Netflix’s Big Oscar Contender


Selena Gomez and Zoe Saldana sing their hearts out in "Emilia Perez," the Cannes-winning musical that is now a Netflix Oscar contender.

Netflix has unveiled the trailer for Jacques Audiard’s Cannes-winning musical drama “Emilia Perez,” which is being positioned as one of the streaming giant’s big Oscar contenders this fall. Variety film critic Peter Debruge wrote in his rave review of the movie that it’s an “exhilarating Spanish-language (half-sung) portrait of a former cartel boss’s life-changing transformation.” “Audiard’s dazzling and instantly divisive film — which stars Zoe Saldaña as the lawyer who helps Manitas transition and Selena Gomez as the mother of their two sons — doesn’t strictly adhere to the codes set by GLAAD and other LGBT advocates, and yet, ‘Emilia Pérez’ emerges as a powerful, unfiltered portrait of someone who challenges several stereotypes at once,” Debruge added.
