She then moved on to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and it seems like she will make movies for the big screen with Marvel in the upcoming years.

Since she is a new face in the Hollywood Industry, many people do not know her. Here are a few facts about Gomez that you might not know.

This excited the actress since she could share and talk about the script with her dad, who does not speak English. Running those lines was a bonding moment for the father-daughter duo.

She said, "It was really, really heartwarming to see how excited he got when he realized that I was going to be speaking Spanish in the film." Her dad taught her how to say those lines and "ways to make it actually really funny."

Overall, the experience was memorable to Gomez and would always be a "core memory" for her.
