Rusty has a spectacular aura aboutRusty has a spectacular aura about
bordar = to do excellently

Based on the definition above, I believe the following is a good translation:
He aced the test.
= Él bordó el exámen.
= Él clavó el exámen. (¿Será igual?)

Bordar el papel = to portray the role very well (I kind of sense this might also mean 'to take the leading/main role (el papel principal)', as well)

Ana Belén portrayed the role/part very well in ....
Ana Belén took the lead (leading role) in ...

I think I would translate it as: "(Ana Belén) excelled in the "X" role in "The Turkish Passion".

But wait for more suggestions.

Saludos, t.
