Best known for her breakout role in Wednesday, multi-awarded young actress Jenna Ortega joins Dior as its newest ambassador, stepping into a dream role in beauty.
Before the new season of Wednesday, Jenna Ortega steps into an exciting new role. She’s now the newest beauty ambassador for Dior. This role celebrates her signature style, creative spirit, and cultural influence. Peter Philips, Dior’s Creative and Image Director for Makeup, will lead this collaboration. Jenna will help shape a bold new vision for the brand. Dior chose her for her strong sense of self and instantly recognizable presence. She’s the perfect face to represent Dior’s next chapter in beauty.
“Being part of it is both incredibly exciting and surreal,” Jenna shares, reflecting on the personal significance of this moment. Her relationship with beauty has always centered on self-expression. Now, as the face of one of the world’s most iconic Maisons, that journey feels complete. Her style blends daring and elegance in perfect balance. It reflects Dior’s DNA—fearless glamour, timeless allure, and a modern edge. She doesn’t follow trends; she sets them.
The Newest Face of Dior: Jenna Ortega
Jenna Ortega rose to fame as Wednesday Addams in the Tim Burton–directed Netflix series Wednesday. She quickly became one of the most talked-about talents of her generation. She’s also starring in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, reuniting with Burton once again. Recently, she took on a dual role in Death of a Unicorn. She serves as both executive producer and lead actress in the film, directed by Trey Edward Shults. Her performances continue to captivate audiences around the world. She’s earned critical acclaim, including Best Actress at the 2023 Imagen Awards. She also won a Saturn Award for Best Performance by a Younger Actor.
But beyond the screen, Jenna has become a powerful voice in fashion and beauty. With each red carpet appearance, she delivers standout moments that blend youthful confidence with old-Hollywood sophistication. She’s worn Dior before—gracing premieres and galas in the house’s signature silhouettes—so this next step feels not only natural but also deeply authentic. Now, she steps into the spotlight with a swipe of Dior blush and a glossy finish on her lips, bringing her effortless cool to the world of makeup.
A Memory That Sparked a Movement
Talking about her earliest beauty memory, Jenna recalls a quiet moment backstage. “The first time I wore lipstick, I must have been 10 or 11, and it was for work, because I started acting when I was so little. I was wearing my mom’s lipstick. We were just in the bathroom of the studio, and she put it on me.” That small, intimate memory has grown into a full-circle moment, now reflected in a global beauty campaign where her image speaks to millions.
This partnership deepens the connection between Jenna and Dior, a relationship already seen in her red carpet history. Just last week, she made headlines wearing a striking Dior look to the premiere of Hurry Up Tomorrow in New York, proving once again she knows how to make a moment.
Dior describes Jenna as the embodiment of bold elegance, calling her an inspiration to a new generation. “…through her values and her personality, is already inspiring an entire generation,” the house shared, highlighting the perfect match between one of today’s most excellent stars and a brand known for celebrating individuality.
Now, under Peter Philips’ creative leadership, Jenna brings a fearless, fresh perspective to Dior’s makeup universe. She represents a new era of beauty—one that’s less about flawless perfection and more about empowered authenticity.
Indeed, there’s more to Jenna than what we see on screen. She’s a creative force, an outspoken advocate for mental health, and a role model who proves that power comes from staying true to who you are. Whether she’s producing films, leading hit series, or redefining red carpet glam, Dior ambassador Jenna Ortega is shaping the future one bold choice at a time.
