Rebecca Romijn has quickly established herself in Hollywood with roles in a
number of prominent film and television projects. She was recently seen on the
WB drama “Pepper Dennis,” as well as in the film “Lies and Alibis” alongside
Steve Coogan, and in the blockbuster hit “X3: The Last Stand.” Her upcoming
films include “Man About Town” opposite Ben Affleck, and “Lake City” with Sissy
Spacek.
Previously Romijn starred opposite Thomas Jane and John Travolta in “The
Punisher,” and opposite Robert De Niro and Greg Kinnear in “Godsend.” However it
was her role in “Femme Fatale” opposite Antonio Banderas that won her critical
acclaim. In this film noir thriller, she plays a woman attempting to go straight
while being haunted by her shady con-woman past. The Los Angeles Times said of
her performance, “Not since Sissy Spacek burned up the screen in ‘Carrie’ has a
De Palma woman held the screen as forcefully as Rebecca Romijn.”
These films come on the heels of her starring role in “Rollerball,” opposite
Chris Klein and LL Cool J, a role opposite Al Pacino in “Simone,” and the hugely
successful “X-Men” and “X2.”
Romijn began crossing over from the fashion world with memorable appearances
on the hit television shows “Friends” and “Just Shoot Me,” as well as hosting
MTV’s “House of Style,” and with cameos in such films as “Austin Powers: The Spy
Who Shagged Me.”
She currently resides in Los Angeles.
