All about this star

Filmography:

Hailing from Russian aristocracy, Helen Mirren became obsessed with Shakespeare as a child and quickly rose to become the enfant terrible of the RSC. A woman of her times, she consistently brought contemporary power to her roles, onstage as Cleopatra and Lady Macbeth, and onscreen in Excalibur and Prime Suspect (to take just a small sample of her breathtaking works). Combining intelligence, sexuality and sheer presence, she's a serial Oscar-nominee and perhaps the finest actress of her generation, as the list below shows.
