Rosamund Pike

Rosamund Pike is an English actress who first came to international attention when she played Bond girl Miranda Frost in "Die Another Day." Since then her films roles have included Jane Bennet in "Pride and Prejudice," Nikki Gardner in "Fracture," Alex in "Fugitive Pieces," Helen in "An Education," Miriam Grant-Panofsky in "Barney's Version," Lisa Hopkins in "Made in Dagenham," Kate Sumner in "Johnny English Reborn," Queen Andromeda in "Wrath of the Titans," Helen Rodin in "Jack Reacher" and Sam Chamberlain in "The World's End."

Conversant in French and German, Pike won a scholarship to Badminton School in Bristol, and while appearing as Juliet in a production of "Romeo and Juliet" at the National Youth Theatre, was noticed by an agent who helped her embark upon a professional career. After being turned down by every stage school she applied to, she gained a place to read English Literature at Wadham College, Oxford from which she graduated.

Her stage credits include "Hitchcock Blonde" by Terry Johnson (in a role requiring her to appear completely nude on stage with only a pair of high heels) and Tennessee Williams' "Summer and Smoke," both in London's West End, and Gaslight at London's Old Vic Theatre.

She is currently filming the thriller "Gone Girl," based on the novel of the same name and directed by David Fincher. In 2021, Pike won her first Golden Globe Award for her critically acclaimed role as Marla Grayson in "I Care a Lot."
