The loneliness of not acting for three years made Camilla Belle's heart grow fonder for the craft. Since returning to it since the age of 16, Camilla Belle has hit her stride. To date, Camilla Belle's professional resume includes work with talented directors like Steven Spielberg (The Lost World: Jurassic Park) and Roland Emmerich (10,000 B.C.) and costars like Cameron Diaz, Glenn Close and Ralph Fiennes.
Although her featured role in Roland Emmerich's stone-age blockbuster gave her prime exposure, Camilla Belle has shown the versatility and know-how necessary to anchor her own studio film or take on more challenging roles in high-profile independents. Camilla Belle's role as the heroine in When a Stranger Calls is proof of the former, while her turn as Daniel Day-Lewis's daughter won her a Gotham Award nomination for the Breakthrough Award. Could an Oscar nom be in the cards for Camilla Belle? If she continues to work with Oscar winner Daniel Day-Lewis, her chances are certainly improved.
