Marlo Kelly

Australian bare beauty Marlo Kelly stars as Tatiana in the new Netflix hit “3 Body Problem,” from the creators of Game of Thrones and based on the books by Chinese author Liu Cixin. She is one of our favorite muses and rising talents. She lives in NYC now ,so we hope to see lots more of her. Check our latest film photo diary and chat on her 3 Body Problem experience, some fill in the blanks, brown mascara and the green serum she uses daily.

The Bare Magazine: Please share some highlights of being part of "3 Body Problem?”

Marlo Kelly: Shooting 3 Body Problem was one of the greatest experiences of my life, so it’s really hard to extract single highlights. The team and cast were all incredible. And the story and my character are like nothing I’ve ever come across before... It’s a real honour to be apart of it. I really hope we get to do it again.

Bare: What are you hoping the 3 Body Problem viewer will take away from the experience?

MK: I think great sci-fi gives an audience a new lens to consider the current state of the world. And as much as 3 Body Problem is filled with mind boggling world building and drama, it’s also incredibly introspective. And that’s the part I think will really resonate with audiences. So I hope it starts conversations about how we’re existing on this planet and where we’re heading as a community.

Bare: What other genres of film would you love to be a part of ?

MK: Honestly everything. I’d love to work on a period piece one day, something with a rich historical context and detail. But for me, as long as the writing and characters are great, then I’m excited by any genre.
