Models Who Became Actresses
Hollywood's model-to-actress pipeline has produced some of the industry's greatest talent. Angelina Jolie, Demi Moore, and Emily Ratajkowski are just a few notable models that made the natural step towards acting. For years, beautiful models have taken on complex and award-winning roles, proving that skills and good looks are not mutually exclusive. Twiggy and Sienna Miller are two major faces within the modeling world that entered the film realm despite their immense editorial success. After appearing in movies such as American Sniper and The Boy Friend, respectively, Miller and Twiggy reached new heights of fame and acclaim. They set the precedent that models should never be limited by conventional standards or industry rules.
Some of the more recent model-to-actress pipelines come from Hunter Schafer and Hoyeon Jung. Both of them are now in critically acclaimed shows Euphoria and Squid Game, but they were big names in the modeling game long before their shows.
