Whether Dracula’s bride, Cleopatra or Bond girl: Monica Bellucci has played many roles throughout her career. Born on September 30, 1964 in the small Italian town of Città di Castello, the actress began working as a model at the age of 16. She actually wanted to study law, but the photography jobs in front of the camera and on the catwalk were simply more lucrative and made her financially independent at an early age.
Then she did what many models do: she switched to the film industry – with success. Since the 1990s, Bellucci has developed an impressive repertoire. From costume films to serious roles and comedies to action films, everything was there. She can currently be seen in the film “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice”. Her partner Tim Burton directed the film. On the occasion of Monica Bellucci’s 60th birthday, we look back on her life and career.
