About Imola Gaspar

I am a Romanian (Transylvanian) born, Hungarian actress, based in London.
     
After I graduated from the Academy of Drama and Film, I went on to have an extensive film and theatre career. I played at the National Theatre in Romania before moving to Hungary in 1993 to work at the National Theatre in Budapest. I have been in the UK since 2008.

I have considerable experience, performing in over 50 film roles in Europe and America. I won 3 awards for best acting. I have worked with many important directors in film and on stage. The Oscar-winning Polish film director Andrzey Wajda directed me in the National Theatre in Budapest, in the adaptation for the stage of The Wedding. In The Offenbach Secret, I worked with Istvan Szabo, who won an Oscar for the film Mefisto. I loved to work with  Denis Willeneuve in Dune2. 

It was a pleasure to have film partners like Catherine Tate, Iain Glen, Marthe Keller,  Mircea Albulescu, Nastassja Kinski, Patrick Bergin, Rebecca Ferguson,and Ariana DeBose..

I am a versatile actress. I am equally at home in drama and comedy. I can play different characters, covering the range from queen to simple countrywoman.

My mother tongue is Hungarian. I speak fluent English and Romanian.
