Eva Mendes: modeling and acting career of a hot beauty

Biography of Eva Mendes

Eva was born on March 5, 1974, into a family of Cuban immigrants who fled the horrors of the revolution to Miami, Florida. She spent her childhood in Los Angeles. Mom and dad adored the girl, so they made every effort to make Eva’s life interesting and comfortable.

In her childhood and adolescence, Eva Mendes did not even think about an acting career - she wanted to become a marketer and interior designer. After graduating from high school in Glendale, she went in 1992 to enter the profession of her dreams and became a student at Northridge University. At first, the girl spent all her time reading textbooks, learning the basics of her future profession. But fate decreed otherwise and predetermined a different path for Eve.

An amateur photographer lived next door to her. He took the beauty for his portfolio; these pictures, which turned out to be very impressive, were accidentally seen by an agent from Hollywood. He became interested in Mendez and found out from the photographer the beauty’s place of residence. Subsequently, he convinced the girl that a great future awaited her in cinema, so she should definitely quit her studies and become an actress. At first, the future star was against it, but after passing several auditions, she quit her studies and began acting in videos and episodic roles in films and TV series. Her best works of that period can be called “Mortal Kombat” and “Emergency”.

The star began to shine on television in 1998 – then she had the opportunity to play in the film “Children of the Corn 5: Fields of Terror.” The role in “Nights at Roxbury” became significant for the actress. Many of Eva Mendes' films during this period were low-budget, but it was impossible not to notice her. The most notable is her role in Urban Legends 2, where she appeared fearless and damn sexy to the audience. This image is firmly attached to the actress - it is still characteristic of her today.

The breakthrough in the actress’s career was the film “Training Day,” which earned a lot of praise from critics and viewers. The film was also nominated for many awards. The girl, who was also not afraid to appear naked in the film, was recognized as immensely talented after she took part in the film “All About the Benjamins.” The number of her fans began to increase rapidly.

Eve got star status after Fast and Furious 2, where she gave it her all. At first, everyone remembered her by sight, associating her with the girl who drove a car in the movie, and then gradually everyone remembered the name Eva Mendes. She became even more recognizable after Once Upon a Time in Mexico. This film became a real hit and earned Mendes a nomination for the Teen Choice Awards.

Eva Mendes's filmography was replenished with films in which world-famous stars participated. In the film “Out of Time” she played with Denzel Washington, from whom she learned a lot. The actress noted that it was as if she had gone through acting school, only now they were paying her. This film simply could not help but become successful, because it had all the prerequisites: an excellent script, a considerable budget and star actors.

In 2005, Eve was given the main role in “Rules of Removal: The Hitch Method,” where she played alongside Will Smith. In 2007, she played the main character's girlfriend in Ghost Rider. The actress’s last “fresh” work was her role in the film “How to Catch a Monster,” which was released in 2014.

In addition to the fact that Eva is a successful actress, she is also a wonderful model. This beautiful girl acts as a “face”. In 2006, she was placed in 27th place in the rating of the Maxim publication.
