Eiza González is keeping a career trend going with her new movie Eiza González's best movies including franchise titles like Fast And Furious Presents: Hobbs And Shaw and Godzilla Vs. Kong, as well as one-off hits like Baby Driver. 2025 should be another huge year for her, with her starring in at least two feature films.

Eiza González's new movie, Ash, looks very similar to the Alien movies and could be a potential March hit. The stylized sci-fi thriller film is being directed by musician and director Flying Lotus. It will see González co-star with Breaking Bad alum Aaron Paul, meaning the movie will have enjoyable performances to complement its unique aesthetic. Not to mention, it will be González's first leading role in years, after ing performances in 2024's The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, La Máquina, and 3 Body Problem.

Ash Returns Eiza González To The Sci-Fi Genre After Netflix's 3 Body Problem

That's Two Sci-Fi Projects In Two Years For Eiza González

One of Netflix's most successful releases in 2024 was 3 Body Problem, a massive science fiction series from Game of Thrones showrunners D. B. Weiss and David Benioff. Eiza González played a ing role as the character Auggie, and she'll be returning for 3 Body Problem season 2, which is anticipated to be released in 2026. This is the beginning of an interesting niche for the actress, after also appearing in a Godzilla movie, Bloodshot, and Alita: Battle Angel, all within the last seven years.

Now, with Ash being released in late March, Eiza González will have appeared in five prominent science fiction titles, lending her talents to a genre that's known for frequently bringing in viewership. 3 Body Problem is the most extensive sci-fi role she's had, playing a character across eight episodes of a show known for its advanced nature, as opposed to her previous movies, which have been far more focused on mixing sci-fi concepts with action. Ash will lean more into the thriller end of sci-fi.

Eiza González Is So Close To Becoming The Queen Of Modern Sci-Fi

Eiza González Just Needs A Major Sci-Fi Hit

Aside from, say, Rebecca Ferguson and Anya Taylor-Joy, there aren't too many actors who have made a habit of appearing in sci-fi films. Especially not as regularly as Eiza González. 3 Body Problem was a massive hit, but Ash might not reach the same potential audience pool. To solidify her status as a science fiction queen in the same way that Mia Goth has established herself in the horror genre, González will need a major sci-fi movie franchise under her belt. Just to throw out an option: she'd be excellent in Blade Runner.
