Niece of Brazilian screen icon Sônia Braga, Alice Braga announced herself to the world in the Rio favela epic 'City of God' (2002) and confirmed it with 'Lower City' (2005). Hollywood took notice: she was Will Smith's fellow survivor in 'I Am Legend' (2007), fought alien hunters in 'Predators' (2010) and starred in Neill Blomkamp's 'Elysium' (2013). Television gave her a defining lead as cartel queen Teresa Mendoza in 'Queen of the South' (2016-2021), and she joined DC's 'The Suicide Squad' (2021). The São Paulo native brings a grounded, unshowy toughness that travels seamlessly between Brazilian cinema and American genre fare.
