Monica Bellucci

Not since sex symbol Sophia Loren has Italy seen a more ravishing actress who embodies both distaff refinement and cognate regality.
Monica Bellucci, married to French actor Vincent Cassel, started her show business career modeling in Milan before making an appearance in BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA. Today, the 43-year-old is one of contemporary European cinema's marquee leading ladies.
Her selective body of work, which spans a gamut of genres, include THE MATRIX RELOADED/REVOLUTIONS, THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, and - last but certainly not least - IRREVERSIBLE.
