“Shazam! Fury of the Gods” landed the number one spot at this weekend’s box office with $30.5 million, slightly below expectations. People were like, who are you? This is Marta, this is what you get.By Cece Lewis 0 Marta Milans Reveals She Wants to Play Catwoman on The Wayne Ayers Podcast I did bring it around to the wardrobe girls, the crew, the cast members. It’s hard to get yourself established, to make a name for yourself, so I am always calling stores and scheduling demos. I had to send my mom back to my place to get extra cheese so we could sell more. I brought my mom and my dad and we sold out of everything in two hours. And since I was in New York during the holiday and my family as here with me, I spent five hours in a store with my own booth and my cheeses. Good! We launched in Whole Foods in New York last month. Speaking of food, you’ve got a pretty interesting second job working with your family’s cheese business. No! Have you seen the clothes I have to wear? I can’t afford to do that. Other than that, it was working, going to the gym, going to kickboxing, that was my life. The light-the sunrises, the sunsets-is spectacular and there are the most beautiful starry skies at night. One of the things that surprised me most about New Mexico is that after New York and L.A., Santa Fe has the most artists in the country. I went to Santa Fe most weekends I went to Taos. Getting to travel around New Mexico was amazing. However Texan the show looks, you were shooting in Albuquerque, New Mexico. For my character, there’s more comedy than crime. Welcome to Texas! No, I haven’t had to learn to shoot yet I play a good wife, a mom. There’s a really funny moment in the pilot when the entire congregation of a church pulls out guns at once. I knew who my character was and I just wanted to be her. I didn’t want to be influenced by other things. The only parallel concept with the other show is that we have crimes committed by women. We’re about a woman who’s a Texas Ranger in Austin and I’m her best friend, married to her brother. They just bought the concept, which boiled down mostly to the title, so it has nothing to do with that show. The series is based on a show that aired in Argentina. I went in and auditioned again I approached it like I get this woman whether or not I look like what people want her to look like, I understand her. Weeks went by and I didn’t hear a word, but then I got a callback. I told my manager I didn’t think it would work. It made me laugh because I got the script and it was another Latina part and I thought, here we go with another woman I don’t look like-I’m pale with freckles and my eyes are green-and I’m never going to get a role like that. to audition for pilot season and this was one of the first auditions I got. How did a lady like you, a world traveler who speaks seven languages, end up playing a rancher’s wife? Here, Milans talks about finding a role that fits, faking Texas with New Mexico and the surprising way she spent her holiday break. The role that has found her not just extolling the virtues of chèvre but getting really involved-indeed, just days before DuJour caught up with the rising star, she had visited a Manhattan grocery store herself to hand out samples. While the 31-year-old Milans has appeared in films including Shame and The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby, her most recent gig has been as a vice president and spokesperson for her family’s Santa Gadea Organic Goat Cheese. Other viewers, however, will know her from Whole Foods. When Killer Women-a promising new series about a Texas Ranger and the female criminals she encounters-premieres January 7 on ABC, some viewers will be seeing Marta Milans, the Spanish-born actress playing Becca Parker, for the very first time.
