Inde Navarrette’s journey from streaming to Marvel
Navarrette’s path to the Marvel Cinematic Universe was far from predictable. Born Danielle Fabiola Navarrette in Tucson, Arizona, she grew up moving frequently because of her father’s military career. By the age of 15, she had attended 11 different schools.
Acting eventually became her creative outlet. She started with smaller projects before gaining wider recognition as Estela de la Cruz in the final season of Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why . Her profile grew further when she joined Superman & Lois , where she played Sarah Cortez across several seasons.
