Penelope Cruz Complete Bio & Career

As a child, Cruz amused her family by re-enacting television commercials. Though a natural actress, she took up dance for her choice of performance arts. She studied classical ballet for nine years at Spain's National Conservatory and then moved to New York to dance under a series of prominent performers.
 
Penelope Cruz made her film debut in 1992, in the dark film Jamón Jamón. The film's director, who had been unable to cast Cruz as the lead in another film because of her young age, waited until she was old enough for his next film. Her performance earned her nominations for both the Spanish Actors Union Newcomer Award and the Goya Award for best lead actress. A year later, Cruz played Luz in The Age of Beauty. The film won an Oscar, virtually swept the Goya Awards and earned Cruz the Spanish Actors Union Award for best supporting performance.
 
At the age of 25, Cruz made the bold decision to move to Hollywood, California. Fully in command and on top of her career, she took on the role of a control freak and successful chef in Woman on Top in 2000. That same year, she played the romantic lead in Billy Bob Thornton's Western All the Pretty Horses. Both films garnered critical success.
 
Cruz went on to further prove she could hold her own among heavy-hitting actors in 2001 when she starred opposite Johnny Depp in the film Blow. That same year, she appeared in Captain Corelli's Mandolin; her performance earned her a European Film Award nomination for best actress. Cruz won her first Academy Award under the category best actress in a supporting role for the Woody Allen film Vicky Cristina Barcelona in 2008.
