Karla Sofía Gascón (born 31 March 1972) is a Spanish actress. She came to attention appearing in a number of telenovelas and films, including El Señor de los Cielos (2013) and The Noble Family (2013).

Gascón gained wide attention for portraying the title character in the musical crime film Emilia Pérez (2024). For the role, she jointly won the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress with her co-stars, becoming the first transgender actress to win the prize. Additionally, she became the first trans nominee in a film acting category by the Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.

Early life and career

Karla Sofía Gascón was born 31 March 1972 in Alcobendas. She began her career after earning an acting degree from the ECAM. She appeared in Spanish daily soap opera El súper portraying a flight attendant. Early roles also included film appearances in Se buscan fulmontis (1999), Me da igual (2000), Box 507 (2002), and Say I Do (2004).

Convinced by Mexican filmmaker Julián Pastor, Gascón moved to Mexico in 2009 to continue her acting career, taking on a number of telenovela roles, starting with the gypsy Branko in Corazón salvaje. She made a one-time return to the Spanish film industry to star alongside Tony Isbert in El cura y el veneno. In box-office hit The Noble Family (2013), she played a character from Puebla with aspirations of becoming a Spaniard. In 2014, she appeared in El Señor de los Cielos as the "ruthless" Spaniard Iñaki Izarrieta, an associate of Aurelio Casillas.

She came out as a trans woman in 2016, and in 2018, she began undergoing gender transition. She portrayed Lourdes Buendía in the teen drama series Rebelde (2022). In 2024, she starred in Jacques Audiard's musical crime comedy film Emilia Pérez, which premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. In the film, she portrayed a powerful cartel leader who fakes death, medically transitions and is reborn as Emilia Pérez. Gascón went on to win the festival's Best Actress prize, shared jointly with her costars Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz and Zoe Saldaña, making her the first openly trans performer to win a major prize at Cannes. In December 2024, she was reported to have signed on to star as Aunt Encarna in Las malas, an adaptation of Camila Sosa Villada's Bad Girls, set to be directed by Armando Bó.

Personal life

Gascón considers herself "Mexican by adoption", since she has lived and worked in Mexico for many years. She is a Nichiren Buddhist.

Gascón is married to Marisa Gutiérrez, whom she met at the age of 19 at a nightclub in her hometown. Together they have a daughter, born in 2011.

In 2018, aged 46, Gascón published her autobiography, Karsia, Una historia extraordinaria.

In October 2024, Gascón became a Knight of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in France.
