Eva Green

EVA GREEN has earned international praise for her work in both blockbuster releases and diverse independent films.

Green made her film debut in 2003 in Bernardo Bertolucci's drama "The Dreamers," earning a European Film Award nomination for Best Actress for her performance. She followed with a starring role in the French film "Arsène Lupin," before Ridley Scott cast her in his epic worldwide hit "Kingdom of Heaven," opposite Orlando Bloom.

In 2006, she starred in the James Bond blockbuster "Casino Royale," directed by Martin Campbell and introducing Daniel Craig as the new Agent 007. For her performance as the brilliant and beautiful Vesper Lynd, Green won a BAFTA Award and an Empire Award.

Green then starred as Serafina Pekkala, the queen of the witches, in Chris Weitz's fantasy adventure "The Golden Compass." She has since starred in the indie features "Franklyn," "Cracks," "Womb," and "Perfect Sense," which premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

On the small screen, Green stars as Morgan in "Camelot," a new adaptation of the classic Arthurian legend on Starz, also starring Joseph Fiennes as Merlin and Jamie Campbell Bower as King Arthur.

Born in France, Green trained in Paris and London, and also studied at the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. Returning to Paris, she began her acting career on the stage, starring in "Turcaret," directed by Gerard Deshartes, and "Jalousie en Trios Fax," directed by Didier Long, for which she was nominated for a Molière Award.
