Discover the most iconic moments of Monica Bellucci movies.

Bellucci’s film career began in the early 1990s.

She made her film debut in 1990, and also holds the distinction of being the oldest Bond girl ever — she was 50 when she appeared in 2015’s Spectre.

Monica Bellucci started modeling as a teenager. After working as a model, she appeared in Bram Stoker’s Dracula and The Apartment.

According to two national newspapers, Italian is considered to be a 𝓈ℯ𝓍 symbol.

In 1996 she was nominated for a César Award for best supporting actress for her portrayal of Lisa in The Apartment and strengthened her position as an actress.

In 2003, Bellucci appeared in the hit science-fiction sequel to the The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, as Persephone.

Her on-screen liplock with co-star Keanu Reeves was hot enough to earn the pair a nomination for best kiss at the MTV Movie Awards.

Bellucci then turned her attentions to all things Biblical with the Mel Gibson-directed The Passion of the Christ (2004), playing Mary Magdalene to Jim Caviezel’s Jesus. This was followed by the fantasy-action caper The Brothers Grimm (2005), in which Bellucci played the Mirror Queen opposite Matt Damon and Heath Ledger as the title characters.

Bellucci went on to juggle Hollywood roles with parts in European films as well.

She starred in Under Suspicion (2000) with Gene Hackman, and that same year she received accolades for her dramatic performance as a wife separated from her husband by war in the Italian language film Malèna.

Bellucci later starred opposite Rachel Weisz in the 2010 true-life drama The Whistleblower and the 2011 Italian romantic comedy The Ages of Love with Robert De Niro.
