Minnie Driver
Minnie Driver began her acting career straight out of the Webber-Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London. She steadily worked in London and even had her own series, but she wanted more. With her incredible ability to convincingly pull off almost any accent it comes as a surprise when her English heritage is revealed. She won the part of Benny, the frumpy Irish heroine in Circle of Friends (in which she had to gain 20 pounds for the part). The sleeper hit made her a much sought after actress. Her next role was one of her long cherished dreams to play a "Bond-girl". Other films include Sleepers co-starring Brad Pitt, Big Night, Grosse Pointe Blank, and Good Will Hunting, which earned her an Academy Award nomination. And in 2000 she played the romantic lead opposite David Duchovny in Return To Me. She and sister Kate Driver produced Slow Burn which she and boyfriend Josh Brolin worked on together in 1999.
