Hollywood movie star Monica Barbaro is best known for her roles as Navy pilot, LT Natasha “Phoenix” Trace in Top Gun: Maverick with Tom Cruise, and more recently as CIA operative Emma Brunner in the Netflix action comedy series FUBAR with Arnold Schwarzenegger, who plays Emma’s father, who is also a CIA operative.
When not on movie set working with one of Hollywood’s biggest action hero stars, Barbaro also models.
As seen above and below, on the cover and inside the latest issue of L’Officiel Fashion Book Australia, Barbaro strikes a pose in a number of provocative ensembles.
If you detect a dancer’s grace and physique in the photos, you’re right. Before focusing on acting, Barbaro studied ballet and completed a degree in dance at the New York University Tisch School of the Arts in New York City.
Get ready to see more of Barbaro: FUBAR has been renewed for a second season. The series topped Nielsen’s streaming charts for its debut with 1.53 billion minutes of viewing for the first week.
Note: In FUBAR, father and daughter have been lying to each other for years about their line of work: they discover the truth about each other when their superiors force them to work together in the field. Hilarity ensues.
