Melina Furgiuela

Melina Furgiuela, honestly, she’s got this wild energy that just jumps off the screen. You watch her in The Astronaut Lovers (2024) and you’re like, “Wait, who is this?” She’s not trying to be someone else—she’s just Melina, and there's this rawness to her acting, almost like she's pulling emotions from thin air. It’s not polished to the point of perfection, but honestly, that’s what makes her performances stick. In The Astronaut Lovers, she takes you on this bizarre, kinda trippy love story that somehow manages to feel both intimate and vast, like you’re floating in space and falling in love at the same time. The chemistry? Off the charts, but not in a glossy Hollywood way—more like two people who found each other at the edge of the universe and decided, “Yeah, let’s do this.” Then there’s Walkman (2023), which, wow, totally different vibe. Melina slips into this retro, almost gritty world, and you get this sense she’s not afraid to get her hands dirty with a character. It’s nostalgia without the sugar-coating. She brings this stubborn, restless spirit to the role, the kind that makes you root for her even when she’s making questionable choices. People sleep on actors who bring that realness, but Melina? She’s got it. Watching her is like catching lightning in a bottle—you just want to see what she does next.
