Burgeoning star Herizen Guardiola made her big acting debut as the star of Baz Luhrmann’s The Get Down, and now signs with Paradigm for representation, this according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The Cuban-Jamaican actress and singer-songwriter is the breakout star of the Netflix hip-hop series, as the female lead Mylene, a singer who dreams of disco stardom while being raised by intensely religious parents. The Get Down also stars Justice Smith, Shameik Moore, Jaden Smith and Jimmy Smits.
Guardiola is an equally adept recording artist that reportedly has been wooed by several record labels. She is currently in the studio prepping her debut EP, which will be released early next year.
