Maria Bakalova | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

Maria Bakalova was introduced to the world with her role as Tutar, the daughter of Borat, in the new movie Borat Subsequent Moviefilm and now she’s getting Oscars buzz!

Sacha Baron Cohen, who played the title character in the new movie, is commenting on the possibility of Maria getting an Oscar nomination and how she’s such a special actress.

“She’s an incredible actor,” Sacha said (via IndieWire). “We interviewed 600 young women from all around the world and she’s hilarious. She is one of the most courageous actors in history. If she doesn’t get nominated for an Oscar then that’s a travesty.”

He added, “She’s hilarious and has the capacity to deliver a scene and make you cry. That’s what finally got her the part. When we did the breakup scene in the movie, I had to stop it because I felt myself getting quite emotional. She’s one of a kind. Imagine coming to America for the first time and you’re playing a role with real people in some terrifying situations. She got through it all. She’s a revelation.”

The new movie Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, the sequel to the iconic 2006 movie Borat, is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video and the film introduces us to actress Maria Bakalova!

The 24-year-old actress plays Tutar, the daughter of Borat, who he discovers to be the oldest unmarried woman in Kazakhstan at just 15.

Tutar becomes the focus of the movie as Borat plans on delivering her to an American politician in hopes of erasing the disgrace he brought on Kazakhstan from the first Borat movie.

While making the movie, the studio hid Maria‘s identity from the public and she was originally credited as “Irina Nowak,” according to The Daily Beast.

Maria has been acting for the last five years and she has starred in several international projects, but this is her first American film. On her Instagram page, we can see that she recently moved to Los Angeles, she’s a trained musician and plays the flute, and she’s an animal lover.

Sacha Baron Cohen, while dressed up as his iconic character Borat, is speaking out in response to the controversy surrounding the Rudy Giuliani scene in Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.

Giuliani, who is the former mayor of New York City and currently is President Trump‘s personal attorney, is involved in a scene with 24-year-old actress Maria Bakalova, who plays Borat’s 15-year-old daughter.

The daughter poses as a journalist interviewing Giuliani and invites him to a hotel room for a drink and tries to take his microphone off. He leans back on a bed and reached his hand into his pants and then Borat runs into the room and says, “She’s 15. She’s too old for you.”

Giuliani said this week, “The Borat video is a complete fabrication. I was tucking in my shirt after taking off the recording equipment. At no time before, during, or after the interview was I ever inappropriate. If Sacha Baron Cohen implies otherwise he is a stone-cold liar.”

In the new video, Borat “defends” Giuliani.
