Much like her outspoken prostitute character, Vanessa Carlyle, in the “Deadpool” movies — who proudly announced, “I’ve played a lot of roles, but damsel in distress ain’t one of them” — Brazilian-born New York-based actress Morena Baccarin is known for playing strong characters. She was commanding as Anna, the leader of the aliens in the 2000’s reboot of “V”. She was outstanding as Jessica Brody, the wife of a Marine turned terrorist (played by Damian Lewis) in the espionage drama, “Homeland,” which scored her an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. And Comic-Con fans adored her as scientist, Dr. Leslie Thompkins, on the crime drama “Gotham,” centered around the Batman universe. (That series is where she fell in love with now-husband Ben McKenzie, who starred in the pivotal role of Jim Gordon).

She won’t give away any spoilers for “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which hits theaters July 26, but the mom of three does spill that time has elapsed, but Vanessa has stayed true to character. “She is a survivor and someone that does not suffer fools,” Baccarin, 45, tells Alexa. It was fun for the Juilliard grad to get to see pals Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in action together on set, as well as “seeing some of the old gang… I won’t say who! You’ll have to watch the film!” she says.

The International Rescue Committee ambassador, who is on the board of Waterwell, a civically-minded theater in New York City, will be busy this summer doing press for “Deadpool & Wolverine,” as well as shooting in London and Iceland and taking some much-needed family time in Colorado. These are all the things the star — who can next be seen in the movie “Elevation,” as a scientist trying to save the world from giant bugs! — takes with her, no matter where she is in the world.

“All of her products are rich and super-hydrating. I especially love the balm. I carry it with me at all times since the size is perfect for travel. I also love her facials!”

“It is an amazing toning and hydrating oil. And for every product you buy they plant a tree!” 

“I often don’t have time to wash my face fully. This is an amazing replacement. It removes all makeup and leaves skin moisturized.”

“An all-time favorite of mine for any kind of skin abrasion or dryness. I use it on my lips or skin.”

“The name speaks for itself.”

“I am a long-time user of this product. It works really well for my skin and gives me a little protection without the feeling of heavy makeup.” 

“This is amazing for under the eye. It has replaced my concealer.”

“Nothing makes my lashes longer!”

“I have wild, curly hair and this leaves it smooth and helps control the volume, while still being ultra moisturizing.” 

“It smells amazing on its own [with a fresh sandalwood and amber scent], and you can also layer it with other fragrances.”

“They have great one-pieces in so many colors that are simple and sexy. I especially love this one in gold.”

“I can’t live without these. They are the softest travel jeans ever!” 

“It is super fun and goes with everything!”

“I can wear these anywhere, anytime and in fact they were my character Allison’s shoes for [my movie coming out in 2025] ‘Greenland: Migration’. They’re all-weather and sturdy.” 

“The most beautiful hand-made hats by a true artist. I own four and want more!” 

“Simply, an all-time favorite.” 

“It is such an amazing story that I was immediately transported.”
