Her exotic features and her huge brown eyes make her one of the most attractive young actresses of the moment. And although at the moment she is better known for some sentimental relationship, Camilla Belle does not lack talent to carve out a solid acting career in the future.

Born on October 2, 1986, the Angelina of Brazilian origin Camilla Belle Routh began to put herself in front of a camera when she was still wearing diapers, since at 9 months she was already advertising. She is the only daughter of Jack Routh, a construction businessman, and Cristina Gould, a designer, due to her religious convictions they raised her according to the Catholic faith.

At the age of 7, he made the telefilms Mother at any price and Special rescue group: Trapped underground . She made her film debut with a small role in La princesa , by Alfonso Cuarón . Her parents ensured that despite being a girl dedicated to acting, she had a normal childhood, and she continued her studies, first at St. Paul Catholic School and later at the Marlborough Women’s Institute.

She was also the daughter of tough Steven Seagal in The Last Patriot , and the young Sandra Bullock ‘s character in Practically Magic . In addition, in The Lost World: Jurassic Park 2 she played a girl who survived an attack by “compis”, small dinosaurs that massacred her family.

He played his first leading role in the telefilm Back to Hawaii , aimed at adolescent audiences. Shortly after, she achieved some impact by leading the cast of the B-series horror film Ella when a stranger calls , where she was a harassed babysitter. She was also one of the lead actresses in Kidnapping Story , during the filming of which she became close friends with her co-stars Jamie Bell and Justin Chatwin .

Her big break came from Roland Emmerich , who opted for her, despite the fact that she was not a big star, to star in the blockbuster 10,000 . She gave life to a young woman from Prehistory with blue eyes -thanks to contact lenses-, an unprecedented trait among the members of her indigenous tribe, who ended up being kidnapped by some warriors. But the film did not have the expected impact, and neither she nor the since-forgotten Steven Strait –first actor– achieved the long-awaited popularity.

Since then, Camilla has given more talk for her relationship with Joe Jonas , one of the Jonas Brothers, than for the movies. He continues trying to succeed on the big screen, as he shot Father of Invention , along with Kevin Spacey , starred in the romantic From Prada to Nada and if all goes well he will lead the cast of Zebras , a drama by Bruce Beresford and Freaky Deaky , an adaptation of a novel by Elmore Leonard .
