Celebrity Biographies
elizabeth debicki
Tall, slender, and classically beautiful, Elizabeth Debicki transitioned from the dance that seemed to be hereditary from her parents to acting on stage, television, and film. And in a very short time, she has managed to carve out a career that makes it necessary to keep track of her.
Although born in Paris, the ancestry of someone with a surname like Debicki suggests non-Gallic origins. And indeed, the blonde Elizabeth Debicki is the daughter of a Polish father and an Australian mother of Irish origin, the eldest of three siblings, and her nationality corresponds to the country-continent of kangaroos. Both parents were dancers, and it would be said that the greyhound comes from caste, since this rising actress of 1.9 meters in height stands out for her slender figure in the purest Venus de Milo style, which seems perfect for dancing.
And yes, since she was little she did ballet, when the family moved to Melbourne. But she got bored, it was more fun for her to watch the cartoons of Captain Planet and the planetariums, which he loved, and escape into that world by pretending to be one of its characters. So at a certain point she saw clearly that she liked acting more than dance steps, and she decided to try her luck in the theater, with plays at her school, the Huntingtower School, where she proved to be quite the leader, showing proverbial energy and determined ways of doing. As Debicki says, “When your parents are dancers, they teach you to be fucking tough. The dancers are the toughest people I’ve ever met on a psychological level. Dancing is much more brutal than acting.” When it came to undertaking university studies, she opted for the Victorian College of the Arts, attached to the University of Melbourne, benefiting from a Richard Pratt scholarship.
Debicki made her film debut with a minor role in the brain-teasing comedy A Deadly Wedding (2011). But she began to stand out as a party girl in the version of The Great Gatsby (2013) by her compatriot music lover Baz Luhrmann , whom she defined as “my fairy godmother”.
2015 was the year the actress rose to the top. Not only that of the Everest climbing film , but especially that of the intrigue series based on John le Carré The Infiltrator , where she was the wife of the arms-dealing villain, Hugh Laurie , who was having an affair with a man who sought revenge on him, Tom Hiddleston ; The actress liked being there because she found it “old-fashioned entertainment.” She was also Lady Macduff in Justin Kurzel ‘s version of Macbeth , and the villain with a thick foreign accent in Operation UNCLE .
Since then, the actress has not lacked work, who signed up for Marvel superhero movies as an alien with Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 (2017) and the quality female thriller with Viudas (2018). In Vita and Virginia (2018) she has taken on the challenge of embodying the famous writer Virginia Woolf. And it gives an idea of her hook that Jordan Peele has requested her for his television series Lovecraft Country , and that Christopher Nolan is counting on her for her next film, still untitled.
Very jealous of her private life, the only thing she reveals about it is that she feels like a nomad, always ready to go from here to there.
