Rosamund Pike talks Keira and Carey (HELLO!)


After meeting on the set of the 2005 remake of Pride and Prejudice Rosamund Pike, Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan cemented a sisterly bond that went beyond the screen.

In an interview with Vogue, Rosamund describes how the three British actresses created such a strong friendship.

"We had such a ball," explained Rosamund.


"It felt like the innocent days. We felt like a bunch of sisters and we were like sisters for ages afterwards. Carey, Keira and I used to see each other a lot. Since Carey has become so famous, I don't see her so much anymore, but there was a time after the film when she would stay with me in LA and we'd all hang out. Or Keira would come round for dinner all the time and we'd try and get together. I think that we all still feel it in some way - it's just that everyone's in different countries now."

The An Education actress, who is soon to launch her first bag collection with British fashion company LK Bennett, opens up about the difficulty in distinguishing acting relationships from real-life with friendships.

Rosamund Pike Emerges as a Real Red Carpet Contender CELEBRITY FASHION by Morgan C. Schimminger February 18, 2013 (THE FASHION SPOT)


This British actress has really stylishly come into her own during the recent promotional tour for her film, Jack Reacher. From Erdem to Alexander McQueen to Giambattista Valli, Rosamund Pike has been selecting some truly stellar red carpet creations lately. Now comes word that Rosamund will be appearing in ads for L.K.Bennett starting in March in some big-name fashion magazines. She's always had a bit of a bold streak maintaing an ability to convincingly pull off bright colors as well as strong prints and patterns.





Rosamund also has monochromatic dressing down. Take the all-black chic Tom Ford suit she was just spotted in last week over in London at the Elle Style Awards 2013. A pair of Nicholas Kirkwood black pumps capped off the look. She's also becoming a regular face at various fashion shows. At the Christian Dior show during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week Spring 2013 last month, Rosamund looked stylish outfitted in a checkered coat accented by a black Lady Dior Cannage bag and Azzedine Alaïa studded ankle boots.

Rosamund Pike: Fashion is mad (BELFAST TELEGRAPH WOMAN)




Tuesday Jan 22 2013

Rosamund Pike loves the "insane" nature of the fashion industry.

The British actress marvelled at the lavishness of the Dior Haute Couture show which she sat front row at in Paris yesterday.

Rosamund gushed about the over-the-top decor and amount of thought that goes into organising a catwalk show, which is all over in a matter of minutes.

"That's what I think is so great about fashion: when people have the budget and the imagination to really create a set that's just ephemeral and just for one day," Rosamund gushed to WWD. "It's insane and it doesn't happen in any other industry."

Rosamund wore a chic black shift dress, grey coat and bare legs to the event, which took place in the capital's Tuileries gardens. The show itself was conducted inside a mirrored box that contained a lush garden themed set, which fellow front rower Jessica Alba was relieved about.

"I love being warm and surrounded by so much greenery," she enthused about being away from the cold.

Jack Reacher Star Rosamund Pike Is The New Face Of LK BennettStar's English charm got her the gig

BY AMY EVERETT ON JANUARY 12, 2013


Rosamund Pike's classic looks are earning her a string of jobs at the moment, from her role as a gorgeous defence attorney in 'Jack Reacher' to her new modelling contract with LK Bennett.

The British actress, labelled 'captivating' by the clothing company, will be modelling LK Bennett's forthcoming spring/summer 2013 collection. The pictures are amazing, with the star's flowing blonde locks and pretty features offsetting the English charm of the brand perfectly.

LK Bennett explained why they chose her as ambassador for the brand's latest collection, citing her 'English charm and celebrated career'.

Rosamund Pike, Tom Cruise’s latest co-star, is a classically trained Brit skilled in blockbusters Films like 'Jack Reacher' expand opportunities, says star of 'Made in Dagenham' and 'Pride and Prejudice' (NY DAILY NEWS)

BY MIKE HAMMER / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS PUBLISHED: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 2012, 6:00 AM UPDATED: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 2012, 6:00 AM





British actress Rosamund Pike has quietly become the woman who gives blockbusters their brains.

The beauty who co-stars with Tom Cruise in “Jack Reacher,” which opened last Friday, has previously busted chops as a sexy villainess in the 2002 James Bond flick “Die Another Day” and faced off against the Rock in “Doom.”

Earlier this year, she enticed the ancient world as Andromeda in the myth-merizing action sequel “Wrath of the Titans.”

“I’ve had tremendous opportunities to work with some wonderful people on projects that have given me a huge spotlight,” she says of her ass-kicking résumé — after training that would seemingly lean more Streep than Stallone. “It’s been great fun, and gives me the freedom.”

Pike, a classically trained, London-bred daughter of concert musicians and opera performers, performed with Britain’s National Youth Theatre as a teen. She built a solid Shakespearean background even before leaving high school.

“I’ve loved doing those action films,” says Pike, 33. “They’ve provided me with great experiences and opportunity.

“But I would argue actually that ‘Jack Reacher’ is not a classic action film ... and a lot of that has to do with the way Tom approaches it.”

Rosamund Pike And Guy Pearce To Star In Aussie Drama Violet Town published: 2012-11-28 08:24:03 Author: Kristy Puchko (CINEMA BLEND)



The beautiful English ingénue Rosamund Pike first drew notice Stateside in 2005's Pride and Prejudice, where she played the loving Jane Bennet opposite the Oscar-nominated Keira Knightley. Though roles followed in the Anthony Hopkins/Ryan Gosling vehicle Fracture and the Oscar-nominated biopic An Education, Pike hasn't yet blown up. Coming up she'll appear in supporting parts in Tom Cruise's Jack Reacher and Simon Pegg's Hector and the Search for Happiness, but thankfully a leading role is in her future, thanks to a forthcoming drama out of Australia.

In their first joint venture Mushroom Pictures and Morrissey Molloy Entertainment are producing an adaptation of Steven Carroll’s novel The Art Of The Engine Driver penned by Matt Cameron. The film, rechristened Violet Town, centers on a married couple attending a New Years Eve Party in 1957 Melbourne. But what should be a night of joy and frivolity turns dramatic when secrets buried within their suburban lives are unearthed. Deadline reports Pike and Guy Pearce will play the spouses with skeletons in their closet. Bryan Brown, best known as Tom Cruise's buddy in Cocktail, is also attached, though his role is unknown. Mark Joffe, who directed the charming Janeane Garofalo rom-com The MatchMaker, will helm.

Rosamund Pike - BIFA 09, Best Supporting Actress Nominee




I don't understand why she isn't in more films.  She's a wonderful actress, she's beautiful - maybe she just hasn't found her role yet.  Nominated for my favorite role of hers (besides Jane Bennet of course) AN EDUCATION.
