Kelly Macdonald Biography And Pictures 2013


Kelly Macdonald
Date of Birth: February 23, 1976
Scotland-born actress Kelly Macdonald was getting ready to apply to drama school and working as a barmaid when she saw a leaflet advertising an open casting session. She got the part and from there, was propelled into the whirlwind that was Danny Boyle's Trainspotting (1996). As the teenage seducer Diane, she gave heroin junkie (Ewan McGregor) one of his more memorable nights—and surprises—of his young life.
Following the film's success, Macdonald began getting steady work in a number of films as both a lead and supporting player. In the immediate wake of Trainspotting, she played the title character (a teenage prostitute) in Stella Does Tricks. Subsequently, she nabbed a lead role in the period drama Cousin Bette (1997) and a small, but memorable, part in the lavish historical epic Elizabeth (1998).
In 1999, Macdonald was featured in four very diverse films. In My Life So Far, she played a young girl growing up in 1920s Scotland, while Entropy featured the actress in the thoroughly modern milieu of 20-something romantic angst. Macdonald alos appeared in Mike Figgis' The Loss of Sexual Innocence, playing the young girlfriend of the film's protagonist; and in Gregg Araki's romantic comedy Splendor, she played the heroine's blue-haired best friend.
Since then, she has appeared in Gosford Park (2001) with Maggie Smith, Intermission (2004) with Colin Farrell, Finding Neverland(2004) with Johnny Depp, Nanny McPhee (2006) with Colin Firth and No Country for Old Men (2007) alongside Tommy Lee Jones and Woody Harrelson. Macdonald then went on to star in the hit HBO series Boardwalk Empire before landing a voice-over role for the lead character, Princess Merida, in the Disney/Pixar film Brave (2012) and the role of Dolly in the film adaptation of Anna Karenina (2012).
