59 Thandie Newton


The sexy Zimbabwean starlet from London is best-known for gracing the silver screen with her glowing presence. Thandie Newton’s roles in Mission: Impossible II, The Chronicles of Riddick, and her starring role in The Beloved, in which she played opposite Danny Glover and Oprah Winfrey, were phenomenal performances. She also has the beauty to match her talent and she is no stranger to the modeling industry, as her graceful and elegant figure has adorned many runways. But to this date, Thandie is best-known for her acclaimed role in the Oscar-winning movie Crash.


Thandie Newton may have been left off of 2006’s list, but the year was a comeback year for the actress. Thandie wowed audiences with her role as Linda in the Christmas premiere of The Pursuit of Happyness. She was able to transform a relatively domicile role into a performance worthy of accolades. And BAFTA presented Thandie with the award for Best Supporting Actress in 2006 for her stellar performance in Crash. The film also earned a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast.


Look for Thandie’s talent and beauty to grace the silver screen several times this year. With Norbit completed, Thandie already has one blockbuster on its way to theaters this year, and Run, Fat Boy, Run is in post-production.
