Lily Gladstone is making a big splash in the movie world. She's the shining star in Martin Scorsese’s new film, "Killers of the Flower Moon" , which is coming to theaters on October 20.
Before this big movie, Lily was known for her role in *Certain Women*. She also played a mom dealing with sadness in *Reservation Dogs*. And guess what? Before all of this movie stuff, Lily had a special job teaching kids about Native American stories. She would act out parts for school kids to help them learn. This shows she's always cared about sharing stories that some people don’t know about.
Now, in "Killers of the Flower Moon" , Lily's role is super important. The movie talks about a time in the 1920s when a Native American group, the Osage Nation, became very rich because of oil. But, with this new wealth came problems. Many outsiders wanted to take away their money.
One of the cool things about Lily is how she acts on screen. She doesn’t always need to talk to make you feel something. Martin Scorsese, the guy who directed the film, said that when Lily is on screen, you just have to watch her. That's a big compliment!
But off the screen, Lily is very different. She loves to chat and share stories. She talks about her family, her childhood, and the lessons she learned from older people. She learned how to listen and understand others, which makes her a great actress.
Everyone is talking about Lily's role in "Killers of the Flower Moon" after it was shown at a big movie event called Cannes. She might even win a big movie award called an Oscar! That would be huge because she could be the first Native American woman to get this award for Best Actress.
Lily has big dreams for the future. She wants to tell more stories that haven’t been shared yet. She thinks about making movies about a singer named Mildred Bailey or a musician named Karen Dalton. For her, picking the right movie is about working with people who listen.
With "Killers of the Flower Moon" , Lily isn’t just playing a role. She's telling a story that many people don't know. In movies today, she’s like a bright light, showing us new and important stories that should be shared.
So, are you excited to see new movies? Don’t forget to watch "Killers of the Flower Moon" this fall. And keep an eye on Lily Gladstone. She's an actress with a lot of talent and big things ahead of her!
