Kelly Macdonald

Scottish actress Kelly MacDonald throughout her acting career has starred in many films, played different heroines, but she was most remembered by the audience for her work in the films "Girl from the Cafe" and "Boardwalk Empire", for which she was nominated in various awards.

Kelly was born in the winter of 1976 in Glasgow, Scotland. After birth, her family moved to the suburbs of Glasgow, so the girl spent her childhood there. She attended Eastwood High School. In an interview, the actress said that from childhood she was an active child and loved to be in the spotlight. However, her acting talent did not appear immediately.

When Kelly graduated from high school, she returned to her hometown and got a job as a waitress there. Even then, the thoughts of filming in the film did not leave her. She carefully monitored the appearance of new casting announcements and even attended some.

For the first time viewers saw Kelly in an episode of the series "Second Screen", but this work did not bring her success, which can not be said about her next film. One day she got hold of a leaflet in which it was reported about the hearing for Danny Boyle's dramatic film Trainspotting. The girl decided to go there and, surprisingly, having no acting education, passed the selection. So in her biography, the first solid role appears.

The girl was entrusted to play Diana, a young seductress who charms the main character. The film received international recognition, and MacDonald was nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Actress. Such success at the very beginning of her career opened all the doors for an aspiring actress.

Therefore, a year later, the girl gets the main role in the film "Stella weaves intrigues", and in 1997 her filmography was replenished with two more tapes. Then she starred in the melodrama Cousin Betta, and in 1998 plays the role of Isabelle Knolisse in the historical drama Elizabeth, which tells the story of the life of the great British queen.

1999 год стал для актрисы еще более продуктивным. Тогда она появилась в картинах «Роскошная жизнь», «Энтропия», «Потеря сексуальной невинности», «Моя веселая жизнь» и «История подземки». В молодости Келли прекрасно вживалась в любые роли и отлично их исполняла, поэтому режиссеры часто приглашали Макдональд в свои картины.

В 2001 году Келли досталась роль девушки Мэри в фильме Роберта Олтмена «Госфольд-парк». Это исторический детектив, рассказывающий о вечере в поместье, на который приезжают друзья владельца особняка, намереваясь несколько дней провести в роскоши и отдохнуть. Однако праздник останавливается, после того как обнаруживается тело мертвого хозяина, и сразу становится понятно, что кто-то посодействовал его внезапной кончине.

Этот фильм позитивно восприняла мировая кинопресса, а на премии «Оскар» его даже номинировали на звание «Лучшего оригинального сценария». В мировом прокате лента собрала $ 87 млн. Есть в карьере актрисы и работа в сериалах. В 2003-м она снялась в картине «Большая игра», а еще позднее в многосерийных лентах «Шпионка» и «Подпольная империя».

Еще одним значимым для карьеры Келли годом стал 2004-й. Женщина сыграла в биографической драме режиссера Марка Форстера «Волшебная страна» с Джонни Деппом и Кейт Уинслет в главных ролях. Картина повествует об истории создания сказки о Питере Пэне шотландским писателем Джеймсом Барри.

Причем роль самого Питера Пена и досталась Келли, с которой она прекрасно справилась. На ее создание было затрачено $ 25 млн, а мировая выручка почти в 5 раз превысила эту сумму. Фильм номинировался на 11 категорий на вручении премий «БАФТА» и на 7 категорий на вручении «Оскара».

Уже в следующем году зрители увидели Келли в мелодраме «Девушка из кафе». Она исполнила главную роль и получила 2 премии. А в 2005-м работала в ленте «Невидимые дети». Эта картина стала частью всемирного проекта ЮНИСЕФ и международной программы ООН. Все вырученные с показов деньги направили в фонд помощи детям, которые нуждаются в финансовой поддержке.

Не менее успешной стала работа в фильме «Старикам тут не место» в 2007 году. Она сыграла Карлу Джин Мосс, работала на одной площадке с Томми Ли Джонсом, Бет Грант, Стивеном Рутом и другими актерами. Лента отмечена многими престижными наградами в мире кино, в том числе «Оскаром», «Золотым глобусом», «Золотой пальмовой ветвью» и «Золотым орлом».

В 2008-м Келли досталась роль в экранизации произведения Чака Паланика «Удушье», а в следующем году она сыграла в картине «Скеллинг», в основе которой лежит одноименный бестселлер Дэвида Олмонда.

В 2011 году женщина проходит пробы для съемок в 2-й части ленты «Гарри Поттер и Дары Смерти» на роль Елены Когтевран. Мировые сборы с этой картины составили больше $ 1 млрд при затратах на съемки в $ 125 млн.

Having starred in two more films in 2011, MacDonald takes a break from his acting career for 5 years. The next time viewers saw her on TV screens only in 2016 in the series "Black Mirror".

The same year brought her work in 3 more projects. And in 2017, the woman appeared in the dramatic film "Child in Time", working on the same site with Benedict Cumberbatch. In 2018, she starred in the films Puzzle and Holmes and Watson, and also voiced a character in the cartoon Ralph Against the Internet.

Not much is known about the personal life of the popular actress. In 2003, she married bassist Doug Payne of the Scottish band Travis.

After the wedding, the celebrity and her husband settled in London. And in the spring of 2008, the couple had a son. The woman gave birth to her second child in December 2012. They have no other children.

In 2017, the star couple ended their relationship.

In 2018, Kelly began acting in the TV series "Giri / Haji" as Sarah. The first episode of the crime tape will be shown in 2019, but the exact date of the film's release on screens is not yet known. The artist continues to develop her acting career and try herself in various projects.

Kelly tries not to advertise life outside the cameras, so she does not maintain pages on Instagram and other social networks. There is no photo of her in a swimsuit or other provocative pictures on the Internet, except for shots in her underwear from the movie Trainspotting and other pictures.
