The Actress Who Plays The Nun Is Gorgeous In Real Life

Even before she really did anything, you could tell the Nun was bad news.
Played by actress Bonnie Aarons, the demonic entity from The Conjuring film universe has proven so effective that it received its own spin-off movie, The Nun, in 2018. The nun is only one of the many faces used by the demon from the series known as Valak but the most memorable is the habit-wearing specter that Aarons so capably portrays. But Aarons herself is much more gorgeous and approachable than the monstrous face she’s famous for. Let’s break down the life and works of the actress who plays the Nun…

How did Farmiga’s physical appearance in the habit affect the portrayal of her character?
When it comes to Hollywood, it is no secret that looks matter. However, it is not often that a stunningly beautiful actress is cast to play the role of a nun, a religious figure who is traditionally depicted as modest and plain. Nonetheless, in the recent horror film “The Nun,” the lead actress, Taissa Farmiga, defies these traditional expectations and absolutely stuns in her performance as the eponymous character.
Farmiga, who is 24 years old, is not a newcomer to Hollywood. Her big break came in 2011 when she played a lead role in the critically acclaimed film “Higher Ground,” which was directed by her older sister Vera Farmiga. Since then, she has gained popularity for her roles in various television shows and films, such as “American Horror Story” and “The Mule.”
For “The Nun,” Farmiga takes on the role of Sister Irene, who is sent by the Vatican to investigate a sinister supernatural presence in a rural abbey. According to interviews with the actress, it was initially difficult to imagine playing the role of a nun, but as she delved deeper into the character, she found it fascinating to explore the conflict between Irene’s faith and the horror she encounters. Nevertheless, what caught many audiences off-guard was how incredibly gorgeous Farmiga looked in her nun’s habit.
Ironically enough, the actress revealed that putting on the nun’s costume was actually quite liberating. In an interview with Nylon magazine, she said, “I kind of feel like I’m way more covered up than I ever am in anything else, so I definitely felt like I wasn’t exposed in any way.” She added that the costume helped her get into character and embody Irene’s spirituality.
However, fans were quick to notice and comment on how stunning Farmiga looked in the habit. Twitter was abuzz with users expressing surprise at the beauty of the actress, with one user stating, “Taissa Farmiga in ‘The Nun’ was definitely the most gorgeous nun I’ve ever seen.” Another user expressed similar sentiments, writing, “Excuse me, but can we talk about how Taissa Farmiga is one of the most gorgeous actresses out there?”
Of course, it is important to note that beauty should never be the sole factor in determining an actor’s worth or talent. Farmiga’s performance in “The Nun” and her other works attest to her skills as an actress. However, it is also refreshing to see a talented actress challenge traditional expectations and shatter stereotypes.
In the end, whether or not Farmiga is beautiful should not detract from the fact that she is a talented and skilled actress who brought depth and nuance to her performance as a nun. However, her unexpected beauty has certainly turned some heads and caused fans to take notice. Perhaps, in a way, Farmiga’s portrayal of Sister Irene is a reminder that beauty can come in unexpected places and that even the most “plain” or “modest” individuals can possess immense charm and appeal.
