Baby Reindeer star Nava Mau joins upcoming comedy thriller: The Dregs
Exciting news for fans of Nava Mau! The talented Baby Reindeer star has joined the cast of the upcoming comedy thriller, The Dregs. Directed by Connor Martin, the film is set in Italy and follows a group of friends on a trip to Tuscany. But things take a wild turn when complex wounds and a cursed bottle of Vin Santo come into play. Joining Nava Mau in the cast are Benjamin Norris, Marta Pozzan, Maria Grazia Cucinotta, and Zach Tinker.
Producer Mike Stern couldn’t contain his excitement about Nava’s involvement, praising her as “inventive, suspenseful, and painfully funny.” This exciting project comes hot on the heels of reports that Nava Mau will also be appearing in the fifth and final season of Netflix’s psychological thriller, You. In the show, she’ll play Detective Marquez, which means she’ll be facing off against Penn Badgley’s character, Joe Goldberg.
Nava Mau’s star has been on the rise in recent years. From her role as Ana in HBO Max’s Generation to her success in Baby Reindeer on Netflix, where she made history as the first trans actress to be nominated for an Emmy Award. Reflecting on the nomination, Nava shared her overwhelming joy, highlighting the lack of opportunities for trans actors to showcase their talent. She expressed gratitude for the transformative experience of being part of Baby Reindeer and how it has opened up new possibilities for her in the entertainment industry.
