Monica Barbaro Talks FUBAR Return, Dancing, and More on Skip Intro

Monica Barbaro joins Arnold Schwarzenegger for Season 2 of the action-comedy series  FUBAR. While reprising her role as CIA agent Emma Brunner, Barbaro simultaneously filmed A Complete Unknown, in which,oppositeTimothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan, she played Joan Baez — a  performance for which she earned her first Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.

In conversation with Krista Smith, Barbaro shares her struggles of breaking into the industry without having connections, her earlier years as a ballet dancer, and what it was like learning to fly fighter jets with Tom Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick.
