Detailed Biography of Camilla Belle: Full Biography:
Camilla Belle Routh was born on 2 October 1986, in Los Angeles, CA to an American father and Brazilian mother. She was named after actress Renata Sorrah's character, Camila, in the Brazilian soap opera "Cavalo de Aço" (1973).
Camilla Belle began appearing in print ads at the age of nine months.. The ambitious youngster segued smoothly into acting, appearing in minor roles in network and cable television movies such as “Trouble Shooters: Trapped Beneath the Earth” (NBC, 1993), “Empty Cradle” (ABC, 1993) and “Deconstructing Sarah” (USA Network, 1994). She went on to appear in several more made-for-TV movies and direct-to-video movies, including “Annie: A Royal Adventure” (ABC, 1995), “Poison Ivy 2” (1996) and the Jimmy Smits’ vehicle,“Marshal Law” (Showtime, 1996).
She segued to the big screen as one of the orphans in Alfonso Cuaron’s exquisite 1995 remake of “A Little Princess,” which led to small roles in major studio films, including Steven Spielberg’s “The Lost World: Jurassic Park” (1997) and the Nicole Kidman/Sandra Bullock chick-flick “Practical Magic” (1998), in which she portrayed a young Bullock – all before the age of twelve. While attending Marlborough, an elite, all-girls high school, Belle hit a bit of a dry spell work-wise, finding time to appeared in a few forgettable films in the late 1990s. Her only semi high-profile project was the HBO thriller “The Patriot” (1998) in which she played Steven Seagal’s daughter. In her downtime, Camilla Belle found time to study classical piano (with aspirations of going pro) and modern language (with the University of Edinburgh offering her a chance to study their modern language program). She also became actively involved in various charities, including becoming an international spokesperson for “Kids With a Cause,” a program created to provide help for children suffering from poverty, hunger, neglect and abuse.
Camilla Belle starred in the critically acclaimed 2005 indie film, “The Ballad of Jack and Rose,” playing the daughter of Daniel Day-Lewis' character. The film only received a limited theatrical release, but Belle was labeled an "impressive newcomer" by film critic James Berardinelli. The film was her first in nearly four years. That same year, Camilla Belle also landed a major role in the dark comedy, “The Chumscrubber.”which received only a brief and limited theatrical release.
Following two solid but little seen films, Belle got the chance of a lifetime, headlining a major release. Cast in Screen Gems' horror film remake of the 1979 slasher classic, “When a Stranger Calls (2006), Belle gave an appropriately sympathetic portrayal of a young babysitter being harassed on the phone by an unknown killer who is closer than she knows. The film was considered successful at the United States box office, grossing over $45 million after an opening of over $21 million.
After the release of the minor film hit, Belle was cast opposite Steven Strait in the Warner Bros. film, “10,000 B.C.” – a prehistoric epic to be directed by Roland Emmerich (Regisseur of Independence Day” and “Day After Tomorrow). Scheduled for a 2007 release, the film was shot on location in South Africa and Namibia.
