Elevation's Morena Baccarin Has 1 Must-Have for Surviving an Apocalypse


Morena Baccarin plays Nina, a scientist hoping to save humanity from monsters who have overtaken the earth, in the post-apocalyptic thriller ‘Elevation’

Set in the mountains of Colorado, Elevation — which hit theaters on November 8 — follows single father Will ( Anthony Mackie), Nina (Baccarin) and Katie ( Maddie Hasson) as they venture away from the safety of their homes to save the life of a young boy in peril. When asked about her trend of taking on roles of strong, independent women — Baccarin stars as Vanessa in the Deadpool franchise and is gearing up to portray Mickey Fox on the upcoming series Sheriff Country — the actress referenced Sigourney Weaver’s recent Lifetime Achievement Award acceptance speech at the 2024 Venice Film Festival. Baccarin added that although there are times where a lengthier hair and makeup process is required — she cited “playing Marilyn Monroe ” or prosthetic use as a few examples — she believes the film industry is entering an era of letting people look “a little more realistic” on screen.
