Lesley-Ann Brandt

Lucifer star Leslie-Ann Brandt has come a long way to Hollywood: she was born in Africa, lived in New Zealand and found her professional calling in America. The dark-skinned beauty has been pleasing fans of American TV series with her work since 2009. Among her outstanding past works is the role of Naevia in the multi-part projects "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" and "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena".

Leslie-Ann Brandt was born on December 2, 1981 in Cape Town, South Africa. Father - Gary Brandt, mother - Charmain Brandt. Leslie-Ann owes her exotic appearance to a multi-ethnic pedigree, in which ancestors from East India, Germany, Spain, Holland, and Great Britain appear.

The childhood of the girl, as well as her younger brother, was spent in Athlone, a suburb of Cape Town. According to Leslie-Ann, this growing up allowed her to grow "thicker skin" and become more intelligent, because the streets of the South African capital were unsafe. Subsequently, these qualities will help the girl break through the tough world of cinema.

The girl went to a local school - Pinelands High School. As a student, she sang in the choir and participated in school performances. But, as Brandt admits, South Africa at that time was not a place where the development of art was patronized in every possible way. Seeing this, Leslie-Anne's parents decided to change their place of residence and, after waiting for their daughter to finish school, left for New Zealand. It was a lot of stress for young Brandt.

It was difficult for the girl to say goodbye to friends, childhood and adolescence. Although now she understands that everything was for the best. In 1999, the Brandt family moved to Auckland, New Zealand. Here she began her career: she worked as a salesman, then as an information technology consultant. In parallel, she worked as a promo-girl and a model (height 170 cm), starred in a number of commercials.

In 2008 she studied acting according to the special methodology of the American teacher Sanford Meisner.

In 2008, Leslie-Anne landed her first notable role on New Zealand TV, playing Leilani in the hit comedy series Diplomatic Immunity in tandem with acclaimed actor Craig Parker.

The next role of the actress was a real breakthrough. She starred in the American historical project "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" (2010). Initially, the producers invited the girl to the role of Sura, the wife of Spartak, but the casting director saw her in the role of Naevia, a beautiful slave in love with the gladiator Krix.

In 2011, Brandt starred in the prequel to the adventures of Spartacus - the project Spartacus: Gods of the Arena. But in the third part of the epic Leslie-Anne is no longer in the credits. After the death of the actor Andy Whitfield, who played Spartacus, the production of the series underwent a number of delays, Brandt was already busy in other projects. As a result, the role of Naevia was played by actress Cynthia Addai-Robinson.

Participation in the popular TV show was a lucky ticket for Leslie-Ann. Thanks to him, the girl grew up as an actress and began to receive interesting offers about roles. So, she soon appeared in episodes of such popular projects as "The Legend of the Seeker" (2010), "This is not my life" (2010), "Chuck" (2011), "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation New York" (2011) ...

В 2010-м актриса дебютирует в кино: ей дали роль в полнометражном новозеландском фильме «Надежды и мечты Джаззы Снелл». Год спустя она играет медсестру Валерию Хоури в американской детективной драме «Видения». В этом же 2011-м в фильмографии Лесли-Энн, наконец, появляется главная роль – Кэсси в одноименном фильме ужасов.

До 2014 года актриса перебивается мелкими ролями в эпизодах малоизвестных сериалов. Единственной крупной работой за это время стал австралийский фильм «На гребне» (2013), в котором Брандт сыграла с популярным актером Сэмом Уортингтоном. Южноафриканка предстала в образе серферши Лани, которая весь фильм не расстается с доской для серфинга и ходит в гидрокостюме или купальнике, демонстрируя свои роскошные формы.

В 2014-м Лесли-Энн утвердили на постоянную главную роль в постапокалиптическом сериале «Лотерея», но проект, увы, закрыли после первого же сезона из-за низких рейтингов. Огорченная неудачей Брандт с головой ушла в работу над новым сериалом «Библиотекари». В нем героиня актрисы – Ламия – борется на стороне сил зла, являясь помощницей бессмертного и непобедимого главы Змеиного братства Ланселота Дю Лака.

Еще одной удачей этого года стала яркая отрицательная роль убийцы Лариссы Диаз в комикс-сериале «Готэм». В 2015 году актриса отметилась участием в серьезном жанре психологической драмы – фильме «Болеутоляющие». Ее героиня – участница спецоперации в Афганистане. На этих съемках Брандт впервые воспользовалась своим совершенным знанием африкаанса.

Наконец, наступает 2016-й год, когда Лесли-Энн знакомится с самой известной на сегодняшний день ролью в ее карьере – Мэйзи из сериала «Люцифер».

Сценарий проекта написан по мотивам одноименного комикса, согласно ему заскучавший на своем темном троне Люцифер принимает образ привлекательного современного мужчины и отправляется в Лос-Анджелес, где неплохо устраивается в качестве управляющего ночного клуба и развлекается на полную катушку.

Брандт играет преданную союзницу Люцифера, которая живет на Земле в образе девушки-мулатки, владеет в совершенстве различными боевыми искусствами. Она творит не самые благовидные поступки, но в то же время не лишена добрых качеств.

Sources call her personal life almost flawless - the actress has not been seen in high-profile scandals and forbidden relationships. On September 5, 2015, she married actor Chris Payne Gilbert, whom she dated for 3 years. Soon the couple had their first child - the son of Kingston Payne Gilbert.

The actress has thousands of photos on her Instagram, including children - happy parents with a baby, creative ones from film sets, and landscape photos from numerous travels.

In 2018, the actress played in full length - the black comedy The Murder of Winston Jones.

She continues her work on the TV series "Lucifer", which is renewed for a 4th season, starting in 2019.
