3Julie Marion Depardieu (born June 18, 1973 in Paris, France) is a French actress.
4
5She is the daughter of actors Creator/GerardDepardieu and Élisabeth Guignot, and the younger sister of late actor Guillaume Depardieu. She didn't ambition a career in acting at first (having studied in psychoanalysis), but it all changed when her father started having her cast in bit parts in his 1990s films. Her most distinctive features are her rosy cheekbones, red hair and smoky voice.
6
7She won two César awards for the same role in Claude Miller's ''La Petite Lili'' in 2004, Best Supporting Actress and Best Newcomer (Meilleur Espoir Féminin), and one more Best Supporting Actress César for ''A Secret'' in 2007 (directed by Claude Miller, once again). It cemented her as a renowned supporting role actress, though she's had some leading roles of note as well.

9Her older brother Guillaume died from a pneumonia in 2008.
