Virginie Efira
Known for
Virginie Efira spent years as one of French-language television's most popular presenters before proving, role by role, that she was a formidable actress. Born in Brussels in 1977, she graduated from romantic comedies to auteur cinema: the chaotic lawyer of 'In Bed with Victoria' (2016), Paul Verhoeven's mystic nun in 'Benedetta' (2021), the double game of 'Sibyl' (2019) and the trauma survivor of 'Revoir Paris' (2022), which won her the César for Best Actress in 2023. Few contemporary performers move as fluidly between comedy and bruising drama, always with a luminous, slightly ironic warmth.
