Biography
Born 10 June 1965, in Hampshire, England, UK
Wanting to be a dancer, Elizabeth Hurley went to
ballet boarding school at 12, but soon returned home. When it came
time to go to college, Hurley won a scholarship to the London Studio
Centre which taught courses for dance and theater.
Soon Hurley would wear the punk rock look with pink
hair and a nose ring. But to get work, she had to change her image
to one that was castable. After college, Hurley worked in the theater
and made her screen debut in Aria (1987). Roles in Television, and
a film Remando al viento (1987), which included a young actor named
Hugh Grant soon, followed.
European films followed her appearance in the BBC
serial "Christabel" (1988) (mini). Her film debut in a Hollywood
movie was in the Wesley Snipes action drama Passenger 57 (1992).
When Hugh Grant was picked up with Divine Brown, Hurley became headline
news. Added to this was the fact that she was the model representing
top cosmetics house Estee Lauder, and there was no place Hurley
could go to get away from the press.
In 1994, Hurley and Hugh Grant set up Simian Films
in partnership with Castle Rock Entertainment.
