Who Is Monica Barbaro? Oscar Nominee’s Movies, Age, Instagram

Although there were plenty of infuriating 2025 Oscar noms snubs (*cough* Challengers), there were also some really interesting surprises. One of those surprises was Monica Barbaro scoring a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her performance as Joan Baez in the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown. She totally deserves it in my opinion, but no one saw that coming after the actress was totally snubbed from the Golden Globes.

While the Complete Unknown star isn’t exactly a household name yet, I sense she’s on her way, so it’s time to get to know her better. I did a deep dive: Here’s everything to know about Oscar nominee Monica Barbaro, including her past acting roles, relationship status, and Instagram.

Monica Barbaro’s Movies And TV Shows

In addition to A Complete Unknown, you might recognize Monica from another little indie film she did recently: Top Gun: Maverick. (She played naval aviator Lieutenant Natasha “Phoenix” Trace.) If you’ve somehow managed to not see either of those movies, you need to get out more. But you might also know the actress from the TV shows Splitting Up Together, FUBAR, or UnREAL.  Check out Monica’s IMDb page to see her full acting resume.

Monica Barbaro’s Reaction To Her Oscar Nomination

Shortly after the Oscar noms were announced, Monica shared her reaction to the exciting news during a chat with Deadline. “This was really unexpected,” she said about her nomination. “I was trying not to pay attention to it because there are so many phenomenal actors performances this year and I’ve just been like, I’m not going to overthink it. I’m not going to expect any of it.” (The supporting actress award will probably go to Zoe Saldaña or Ariana Grande, but anything’s possible, of course.)

How Old Is Monica Barbaro?

The actress was born on June 17, 1990, so she’s 34 now.

Is Monica Barbaro Single?

Monica appears to mostly keep her love life private, but she was spotted leaving a Paris hotel with British actor Guy Burnet last October… Perhaps there’s a romance there. She’s definitely not dating her Complete Unknown costar, Timmy Chalamet, ’cause he’s madly in love with our Kylie Cosmetics queen, Kylie Jenner.
