EVA GREEN BIOGRAPHY

BIOGRAPHY

Eva Gaelle Green born in Paris France, 5 July 1980 is a French actress, raised in Paris and living partly in London. She has been noted by Vogue for her "killer looks, intelligence and modesty", and described by The Independent as "gothic, quirky, and sexy".

Green performed in theatre before making her film debut in The Dreamers (2003), which generated controversy over her numerous nude scenes. She achieved greater fame for her parts in Kingdom of Heaven (2005), and in the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale, for which she won a BAFTA. She has also modeled for numerous brands.
Eva Green was born in Paris, the daughter of French actress Marlène Jobert and Swedish dentist Walter Green. She has said that "I have Algerian, Turkish, Swedish, Spanish blood: I feel like a citizen of the world. Life and cinema don't have borders." She grew up in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Her mother is of French Algerian (Pied-Noir) descent. Green was born two minutes earlier than her fraternal twin sister named Joy. Green has described her family as "bourgeois", and has said that her sister is very different from her. Green is a natural dark blonde; she dyed her hair black aged 15.French-Swedish actress Marika Green is her aunt.

Green was raised in France, attended and graduated from the American School of Paris, an English-speaking institution, and also spent time between Ramsgate, London and Ireland. Green was quiet in school, and developed an interest in Egyptology when she visited the Louvre at age seven. At age fourteen, after seeing Isabelle Adjani in The Story of Adele H., Green decided to become an actress. Her mother initially feared that an acting career would be too much for her sensitive daughter, but later came to support young Eva's ambitions
Green considers herself nerdy:"When people first meet me, they find me very cold. I keep myself at a distance, and I think that's why I'm so drawn to . It allows me to wear a mask." She moved to Primrose Hill, London in mid-2005. She prefers the "village-like" atmosphere of the London neighbourhood: "I feel more centred when I'm ." She lives alone, jokingly referring to her border terrier, Griffin, as her "husband".

She is an atheist, and was not raised to follow any religion.
She dated New Zealand actor Marton Csokas after meeting him on the set of Kingdom of Heaven, but the couple announced their split in 2009. She has no particular fitness regime, because, "I'm French and I'm lazy, which means I smoke and I don't exercise", though she does run and she practices pilates. Green finds dieting too stressful. She thinks of herself as an international actress: she can speak both her native French and English fluently, and is also learning Japanese as well as perfecting an American accent. Green's favourite film is Cries and Whispers, and she is a fan of directors François Truffaut, Ingmar Bergman, Tim Burton, Lars von Trier, David Lynch, and David Fincher. She admires the actresses Lauren Bacall, Marlene Dietrich, Bette Davis, Jeanne Moreau, Cate Blanchett, Juliette Binoche, and Helena Bonham Carter.

She credits Blanchett and Kirsten Dunst as her fashion influences, describing her own taste as, "bright pink lipstick, hot pink or geisha colors. Make up is allowed to be a bit weird, I feel." Her favourite artists are Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele, and she is a keen museum visitor; she particularly likes Chinese and Indian architecture, and framed displays of butterflies and other insects. Green enjoys music, listening to film soundtracks and classical music when preparing for roles, and she plays the piano.
