Birth Date: July 15, 1976 Birth Place: Algermissen, Lower Saxony, Germany Diane Kruger recently made her international screen debut in Wolfgang Peterson's “Troy,” starring as antiquity's greatest beauty, Helen of Troy, opposite Brad Pitt. She went on to star with Josh Hartnett in the thriller “Wicker Park” directed by Paul McGuigan, and will next be seen starring with Ed Harris in Agnieszka Holland's “Copying Beethoven.” Born and raised in Germany, Kruger studied in London with the Royal Ballet before an injury ended her dance career. She returned to her native country and became one of its best-known photographic models before moving to Paris, at the suggestion of filmmaker Luc Besson, to study at Ecole Fleuron. There, she won the school's Classe Libre Award for Best Actor. She then began her acting career starring opposite Dennis Hopper and Christopher Lambert in the independent production “The Piano Player,” following that with roles in the Caesar-nominated French film “Mon Idole” and “Michel Vaillant.” In 2003, she was honored at the Cannes Film Festival with the Chopard Trophy for Revelation of the Year.
