Léa Seydoux (born Léa Hélène Seydoux-Fornier de Clausonne; 1 July 1985) is a French actress. She began her acting career in French cinema, appearing in films such as ''The Last Mistress'' (2007) and ''On War'' (2008). She first came to attention after she received her first César Award nomination for her performance in ''The Beautiful Person'' (2008) and won the Trophée Chopard, an award given to up-and-coming actors at the Cannes Film Festival. Since then, she has appeared in major Hollywood films including ''Inglourious Basterds'' (2009), ''Robin Hood'' (2010), ''Midnight in Paris'' (2011) and ''Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol'' (2011). In French cinema, she was nominated for the César Award for Most Promising Actress for a second time for her role in ''Belle Épine'' (2010) and was nominated for the César Award for Best Actress for the film ''Farewell, My Queen'' (2012). In 2013, Seydoux came to widespread attention when she was awarded the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for her role in the critically acclaimed film ''Blue Is the Warmest Colour''. That same year, she also received the Lumières Award for Best Actress for the film ''Grand Central'' and, in 2014, she was nominated for the BAFTA Rising Star Award and starred in the films ''Beauty and the Beast'', ''The Grand Budapest Hotel'' and ''Saint Laurent''. She played Madeleine Swann in the 24th James Bond film ''Spectre'', which was released in 2015. ==Early life== Seydoux was born in 1985, the daughter of businessman Henri Seydoux and philanthropist Valérie Schlumberger. She was born in Passy, in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, but grew up in Saint-Germain-des-Prés in the 6th arrondissement. She has five younger siblings and an older sister, Camille, who works as her stylist. Her parents are both partly of Alsatian descent. Her father is a great-grandson of businessman and inventor Marcel Schlumberger, while her mother is a granddaughter of Marcel's brother, Maurice Schlumberger.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Profil d'un personnage – Société Genevoise de Généalogie )〕 Seydoux's parents divorced when she was three years old and they were often away, her mother in Africa and her father on business, which, combined with her large family meant that she "felt lost in the crowd... I was very lonely as a kid. Really I always had the feeling I was an orphan." Through her family involvement in media and entertainment, Seydoux grew up acquainted with prominent artists such as photographer Nan Goldin, musicians Lou Reed and Mick Jagger and footwear designer Christian Louboutin.〔 For six years, she went to summer camp in America, at the behest of her father, who wanted her to learn to speak English. She had a strict Protestant upbringing, but she is not religious. The Seydoux family is widely known in France. Her grandfather, Jérôme Seydoux, is the chairman of Pathé; her granduncle, Nicolas Seydoux, is the chairman of Gaumont Film Company;〔 her other granduncle, Michel Seydoux, also a cinema producer, is currently the chairman of the Lille-based football club Lille OSC; and her father is CEO of the French wireless company Parrot.〔 Despite Seydoux's connections, her family initially took no interest in her film career and did not help her.〔〔 As a child, she had no desire to act. She instead wanted to be an opera singer,〔 studying music at the Conservatoire de Paris. Her mother Valérie Schlumberger is a former actress-turned-philanthropist and the founder of the boutique CSAO (Compagnie d'Afrique du Sénégal et de l'Afrique de l'ouest), which promotes the work of African artists. Seydoux once worked as a model for their jewellery line ''Jokko''. Schlumberger, who lived in Senegal as a teenager, is also the founder of the charitable organisations ASAO (Association pour le Sénégal et l'Afrique de l'Ouest) and Empire des enfants, a centre for homeless children in Dakar, of which Seydoux is the "godmother."〔〔 Seydoux describes her youthful self as short-haired, slightly disheveled, and widely viewed as a bit strange: "People liked me, but I always felt like a misfit."〔 Still concerned for her shyness in adulthood, Seydoux has admitted to having had an anxiety crisis during the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Léa Seydoux」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
