Rosamund Pike

English actress (born 1979)

Rosamund Pike belongs to the record of cinema as a figure whose work outlasted the productions that carried it.

The record lists Rosamund Pike as English actress (born 1979).

Rosamund Pike was born at Hammersmith in 1979. Her recorded nationality is United Kingdom. She trained at Wadham College and Badminton School.

By this period cinema was global and fragmented: independent finance, festival circuits and television drama competing for the same talent.

The record gives her roles in the industry as voice actor, stage actor and film actor.

Her name is attached above all to portrayals of complex and morally ambiguous women in independent cinema and psychological thrillers, her accolades include a Primetime Emmy. Film is a collaborative art in which individual credit is always contested and occasionally deserved.

The awards record reads: Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Actress in a Short Form Comedy or Drama Series (2019).

That the work was made from United Kingdom shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.

Rosamund Pike is still working, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
