Around this time, Zulay Henao enrolled to study at the New York Conservatory of Dramatic Arts, where she later earned an acting degree from the institution.

They wanted to see her play roles that could possibly stretch her and awaken the soldier that resided within her, and just as she expected, in 2009 she starred as the female lead character in a sports fight film called Fight with Channing Tatum to the delight of his fans and moviegoers.
Zulay’s acting career has seen her star in many other films at different times, some of which include S.
