Lady and the Tramp: The Love Story of Diane Kruger and Norman Reedus

For some reason, many of our compatriots have a stereotype that German women are absolutely devoid of feminine attractiveness. We want to tell you about the original beauty of German women and the peculiarities of their mentality.

Let's start with the fact that German women, like most European women, do not count on a man's financial help. They achieve heights in their careers, develop their talents, improve their professional skills and do not strive to marry older, wealthy men. Financial dependence on a partner is considered shameful and condemned by the public. These self-sufficient women experience the breakup of relationships much easier than our compatriots - they themselves easily become the initiators of separation when the relationship ceases to bring joy.

They do not spend much time choosing the right outfit, perfect makeup, and prefer to wear only comfortable clothes. Their style is relaxed, devoid of the desire to please and emphasize sexuality.

German women accept the characteristics of their body and do not torture themselves with exhausting diets. The only goal they pursue by eliminating fast carbohydrates or signing up for yoga is to improve their own health. Women in Germany do not make a tragedy because size S becomes too small for them. However, most representatives of the fair sex of different ages go in for sports here. It is worth noting that German women are much more fit than residents of other countries.

Most German women carefully take care of their skin, but absolutely neglect decorative cosmetics.

Our selection includes the most beautiful German women. Note that the article contains women of different generations - some of them were remembered for their unique beauty so much that they continue to be role models even after decades.

Charlotte Cordes

The thirty-two-year-old girl from Hamburg has outstanding appearance. Her main advantage is her chiseled cheekbones, which make her face memorable and aristocratic. The beauty began her modeling career when she was only fifteen - and since then she has regularly been included in the lists of the most sought-after models on the planet. Charlotte's credits include shooting for Prada, Calvin Klein and Jil Sander. Cordes is one of those models who don’t really like publicity and prefer not to advertise their personal life.

Celebrity style: Diane Kruger – queen of the red carpet

Diane Kruger is an actress who may not be very popular or well-known among a wide audience, but there are few who would not appreciate her cold, subtle beauty and remember her role in the box office hit “Troy.” And she, nevertheless, acts in films with the best European directors, works on equal terms with the most talented actors of our time and is friends with the strong and powerful from the fashion world. We decided to make a selection of the most striking outfits of the actress. The best images of Diana are further in the post. #bit-cut#

Her long and difficult path to the top began with ballet classes at the age of 2, participation in numerous competitions, and work as a model. On the advice of Luc Besson himself, Diana seriously took up her film career, mastering French and English in addition to her native German, becoming the best in her course at the Parisian acting school and changing her unpronounceable native surname Heidkruger to the more laconic Kruger. Her not “pop” fame evokes a feeling of respect and even admiration. Diane Kruger does not look like a woman who follows the lead of the public; on the contrary, she chooses her roles thoughtfully and correctly, as well as her outfits for going out. Agree, this year only the lazy did not post a photo of Diana from the Cannes Film Festival in her next impeccable image. But Cannes is just a drop in the sea of ​​always chic, stylish, feminine and sexy images of the actress.

Like every true blonde, Diane Kruger knows one important rule - red ! The actress uses this technique to the maximum - she has a whole lot of “lady in red” looks in her arsenal. Having a fragile, graceful physique, the actress always skillfully emphasizes her main advantages - long, slender legs, thin, graceful arms, full breasts and the freshness of her aristocratic beauty. Diana complements red dresses with plain high-heeled shoes, small handbags and a minimum of jewelry.

For special ceremonies and various red carpets, the actress always follows the dress code requirements and chooses incredibly beautiful floor-length dresses . In most cases, these are dresses in light shades - from cool white to delicate cream and gold shades. If it is a soft pastel palette, then the actress creates contrast and emphasizes the beauty of her slightly tanned skin and white curls. If the dress is of a golden hue, then Diana places subtle accents with the help of makeup - highlighting her lips with scarlet color or emphasizing her eyes in the “smokey eyes” style.

Dress PRZHonskaya green 1400.00 UAH; gray 1950.00 UAH

If we talk about the model range or silhouettes of Diane Kruger's outfits, it is obvious that the actress makes a very good choice in the direction of dresses that embody the best classical traditions: true femininity, the hidden strength and sexuality of female nature, modesty and grace. Whether long, draped dresses that fit the figure, loose and light, or closed ones with an accentuated waist and full skirt, they invariably have one thing in common - sophistication and chic.

Along with classic red carpet outfits, the actress also has a passion for things with complex architectural designs, unusual, abundant decor, and things made from aristocratic materials (velvet, lace, stones and beads, as well as leather). Such images are filled with a “vintage” spirit, thanks to extremely well-chosen shoes, jewelry, accessories, makeup and hairstyle. Notice how the actress’s hair is always styled differently: most of the hairstyles are simple and not pretentious, but how great they are in harmony with each of Diana’s looks.

As a real woman, and even a famous fashionista, Diane Kruger knows a lot about trendy and incredibly sexy lace . In her dresses you can always feel that very thin, almost tangible line - the line, crossing which you easily fall from an ideal image into a complete abyss of vulgarity and bad taste. It seems that Diana feels it on a subconscious level, all the details and little things of her images are so well thought out and arranged. We can only envy her fashion sense and admire her triumphant appearances, looking at every detail with interest.

Perhaps one of the most beloved and “girlish” powdery shades . The entire range of pink colors - from rich fuchsia to a pale shade - very gently emphasizes the freshness and youth of the heroine, giving her unapproachable and slightly cold beauty warmth and a certain playfulness.

Shirt IVANOVA for beintrend with black collar 489.00 UAH; with cutouts 499.00 UAH; with fringe 609.00 UAH

Our heroine very skillfully creates intelligent and at the same time sexy images with the help of deliberately masculine wardrobe elements. A tightly buttoned white dress shirt, a playful bow tie, and tight black trousers with suspenders - this is the recipe for a real unintentional temptation from Diane Kruger. By mixing these elements with contrasting styles of short shorts, open-toed shoes, red lipstick and hair tied into a messy bun, the actress gets an “explosive” image of a woman in a masculine style .

Dress PRZHonskaya lilac 870.00 UAH; red 3,990.00 UAH; pink 1,400.00 UAH

Always elegant and classic, Diana also loves to try on looks with things of the brightest unexpected colors , but she does this within the framework of her unique recognizable style, without unnecessary overloading elements, as on the advice of Coco Chanel herself - combining no more than three colors in one look :)

PRZHonskaya pink shirt 1,950.00 UAH; white 2,370.00 UAH

It’s a pleasure to look at the beautiful Diana’s outfits from all sides - no matter where you look, you always find some interesting, unobtrusive elements and accents. In the actress's performance, a dress that is tightly closed in the front may appear at the back with an open back, a small crimson handbag will unexpectedly subtly harmonize with the same color on the lips, under the voluminous luxurious furs there will be thin translucent lace, and rough over the knee boots will perfectly suit a tweed aristocratic sleeveless dress. .

Dress ZOSIMOVA for beintrend white 1,000.00 UAH; blue 1,000.00 UAH; black 950.00 UAH

Dress “Cornflower” Yasya Minochkina 2,449.00 UAH; yellow 2,000.00 UAH; with scarf 2,449.00 UAH

And finally, the last way in our selection (but not in the collection of Diane Kruger) to look incomparable always and everywhere is a whole galaxy of small dresses . Black, white, red; simple and with a complex cut; with or without decor; fitted and loose; with open shoulders and long sleeves. The main criterion for such a dress is that it must fit perfectly! This should be your dress plus chic shoes and minimal or no jewelry - only beauty, confidence and a good mood! Judging by the way Diane Kruger does it, the result is impeccable :)

Claudia Schiffer

The name of this legend of the modeling business is familiar even to those who are not at all interested in the fashion industry. Claudia was an icon for a whole generation of young girls - they tried to be like her, they copied her style and signature hair color. In the 90s, there was no more popular, sought-after and desirable girl on the planet. She was Karl Lagerfeld's muse even after she ended her collaboration with the Chanel fashion house in 1997. Now forty-nine-year-old Claudia still continues to delight her fans with new shoots in magazines and advertising contracts.

Heidi Kaulitz

World-famous supermodel Heidi Klum recently married the idol of all teenage girls of the late 2000s, Tom Kaulitz. A mature woman and mother of four children still continues to impress fans with her impeccable appearance - no one was surprised that the guitarist of the previously popular band Tokio Hotel fell head over heels in love with a girl sixteen years older.

Surprisingly, the beauty Heidi is partial to hamburgers and fries. However, she rarely indulges in such “harmful things” - basically, Mrs. Kaulitz adheres to the nutritional system developed by her personal nutritionist. The supermodel considers alcohol to be the main enemy of female attractiveness - she never drinks more than a glass of champagne at parties.

Beauty secrets of Diane Kruger

Diane Kruger carries the mood of youth, bordering on adolescence, despite the fact that she is already 35 years old. Perfectly selected outfits and delicate makeup with an emphasis on pastel shades and pink undertones against the background of light curls make her look soft and feminine, airy and certainly fashionable. But modern fashion is unthinkable without beauty, and the actress spoke about beauty and her favorite rituals in a short interview.

As you know, many actresses are willing to pay a lot of money for their makeup and image, knowing that the whole world is watching them. What do you think is the main secret of attractiveness?

At one time, I realized that the main rule, especially for the red carpet, is that less is more. I used to look at some of my photos from gossip columns and didn’t recognize myself. Then I realized that I wanted to be myself and look the way I look, and not the way porcelain dolls look. Therefore, as a rule, I apply makeup myself, fortunately I know how and love to do it.

What's in your cosmetic bag?

There's a lot in there as I love experimenting with makeup and shades. I often participate in photo shoots and filming and can take away something I like. But one thing I always carry with me is concealer. No matter what kind of makeup I put on or what color I wear, for me it is the most important thing that makes my skin flawless.

But concealer can only hide external imperfections. What do you do to ensure that your skin is beautiful and healthy?

When I moved to Los Angeles, I immediately felt the full power of the local sun. It was too much for me and my dermatologist told me to never go outside without SPF. And hydration is also very important to me. Favorite cream is Roséliane by Uriage. Unfortunately, you can't buy it in the US, so you have to ship it from France.

Any other beauty secrets from Diane Kruger?

They are extremely simple: at least nine hours of sleep and no smoking. After quitting smoking, I immediately noticed significant improvements in the condition of my skin.

Who is your beauty icon?

I have always been attracted to interesting people. I studied ballet for a long time because I admire the elegance and sophistication that ballerinas have, and even little things like a cute bun on their head. It seems to me that simple and clean beauty looks better than deliberate and thoughtful. I am also very inspired by Grace Kelly.

Do you still dance to stay fit?

No, but I try to move a lot and do outdoor activities. In Paris I always rode a bicycle. In Los Angeles, I often take long walks. My plans are to always remain cheerful and active.

When it comes to nutrition, do you eat whatever you want?

I always watch my diet, but the reasons for this are not due to excess weight: so far everything is fine with it, and besides, on set I often forget about food and drink only water. It just seems to me that a person is what he eats. This is why I try to avoid processed foods and eat as much fresh and raw foods as possible.

Diane Kruger

Forty-four-year-old actress Diane Kruger is a recognized style icon. She always looks impeccable and can give odds to many twenty-year-old colleagues.

Diana's elegance, grace and plasticity are due to the fact that she was a professional ballet dancer. Due to a serious injury, the poor girl had to give up her dream of becoming a prima, but then the opportunity arose to become a world-class star. Since Kruger is a light-skinned, blue-eyed blonde, she always highlights her eyebrows, wears a lot of mascara, and prefers red lipstick to avoid looking washed out.

Is Quentin Tarantino's career over? Who supported the director?

Now the name of Quentin Tarantino (54) does not leave the front pages of publications, as was the case with Harvey Weinstein (65) last year. And the reason, in general, is the same: sexual harassment. Tarantino himself did not harass anyone (though you can’t be 100% sure of anything - maybe tomorrow he will be accused too), but he covered up Weinstein’s affairs. Tarantino's muse Uma Thurman (47) said that shortly before filming Kill Bill, Weinstein tried to get her into bed.

Then Tarantino demanded that Weinstein stop this immediately, and he, in turn, tried to win him over to his side. But Quentin was adamant: “I don’t believe you. I believe her." And Weinstein apologized to Thurman.

And in October 2020, Tarantino told The New York Times that he had known about Weinstein's behavior for a long time. “I knew enough to do more than I did,” he said, and he refused to work with Harvey’s company after two months. And then (unexpectedly) Uma got involved - she recalled how Tarantino himself behaved on the set of Kill Bill and said that he forced her to perform a stunt without a stunt double. Thurman got into her car and crashed into a tree. Result: concussion, neck and knee injuries.

A couple of days later, Tarantino commented on the situation and said that, in fact, he himself first got behind the wheel of that same car and drove that section of the road. Moreover, he admitted that he was incredibly sorry for what happened. But the Network could no longer be stopped. The director was immediately reminded of how, back in 2003, Tarantino defended Roman Polanski (84) when it came to how in 1977 he was accused of raping a 13-year-old girl. “He did not rape a 13-year-old girl in the sense that you are used to understanding it. It was legal rape. And this is not the same thing... He had sex with a minor, but it was not rape. To me, “rape” means actual violence. <…> She herself wanted this.”

But Tarantino also has his defenders. Actress Diane Kruger (41), who starred in Quentin's Inglourious Basterds, said: “I would like to say that my experience working with Quentin Tarantino was very pleasant. He treated me with complete respect and never abused his power or forced me to do anything I didn't like."

I wonder why Uma Thurman suddenly remembered this story, because she has been friends with Tarantino for so many years, and in 2014 there were rumors about their romance, when they came together to the Cannes Film Festival and looked at each other with loving eyes all evening.

Then they admitted that they had already tried to date, but nothing worked out.

Veruschka

Verushka denies the title of the first supermodel, but it suits her like no one else. She was the one who changed the fashion industry once and for all - incredibly tall height (186 cm), love for men's style and the color black, alienness and melancholy - all this became a trend thanks to her.

She is graceful, majestic, thoroughbred - photographs of Veruschka can be a source of inspiration even decades later. She reinvented herself to be different from hundreds of other aspiring models - and she did it so well that she will forever go down in history. She was an alien who hated everything bourgeois and mundane - and therefore left the fashionable Olympus in the 70s, when time demanded role models of a different type.

Julia Shtenger

Another beautiful model comes from Germany. She had an unusual appearance since childhood - and at the age of seven she began working as a model, appearing in children's clothing catalogs. When Yulia was fourteen, she was offered to start conquering the industry like an adult.

Stegner was on the covers of French, German, Italian and Japanese Vogue, participated in advertising campaigns for brands such as Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Ralph Lauren, Yves Saint Laurent, Hugo Boss, Gucci. , Versace and Valentino. Now the model is a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador.

Diane Kruger

Diane Kruger was born on July 15, 1976 in the small German village of Algermissen, near the city of Hildesheim in Lower Saxony. Her mother Maria-Therese Heidkruger was a simple bank employee, and her father Hans-Heinrich Heidkruger was a computer specialist. Diana also has a younger brother, Stefan.

When Diana was still very young, she dreamed of doing ballet. She started dancing at the age of 2. Therefore, having matured a little, she attended a ballet school in her homeland. Thanks to her efforts, she ended up on the school's advertising posters. Two years later she had the fourth category. But the knee injury that Diana received soon prevented her from becoming a ballerina in the future. In 1989, when Diana was 13 years old, her parents divorced. After which Maria Teresa had to raise two children alone. Therefore, between classes at school, Diana had to deliver mail and work part-time at a pizzeria. The actress has not communicated with her father for many years. Hans believes that his mother deliberately turned the children against him. Therefore, he publicly addressed his daughter several times asking for forgiveness, but there has been no response from the actress so far.

Diane Kruger's modeling career began in 1991-1992. She took part in the prestigious “Appearance of the Year” competition. According to the results of the competition, the future model and actress took first place. It was this event that became a turning point in Diana’s career as a fashion model. Soon she signed a contract with one of the most successful agencies, Elite, and began representing clothing and perfumes of many famous brands, including Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Jil Sander, Dolce & Gabbana, Armani. In addition, the successful fashion model could be seen on the covers of such glossy publications as Vogue, ELLE and some others.

Diane Kruger realized that a modeling career could not last too long, so she decided to try her hand at filmmaking.

In 1997, she took part in the casting of the film “The Fifth Element” by French director Luc Besson. But due to the fact that Diana did not speak French very well at that time, she did not get the role in the film. However, it was Luc Besson who played a big role in Diana's acting career. It was he who advised her to quit the modeling business and take up acting seriously, as he believed that she had a brilliant future as an actress. In addition, Luc Besson recommended that she move to Paris and take a pseudonym: Kruger instead of Heidkrüger. In this way she avoided the difficulty of having an umlaut in her surname in the international arena. There, Diane Kruger began studying acting at the specialized school “Ecole Florent”. After studying hard, in 2002 she became the best in the course.

The actress gained worldwide fame in 2004, when she starred in 4 films. While filming her first American film, Whiplash (2004), directed by Paul McGuigan, where she played one of the leading roles of Lisa alongside actors such as Josh Hartnett, Rose Byrne and Matthew Lillard, Diane Kruger was also cast as Elena in the historical Wolfgang Petersen's film Troy (2004). In addition to her, the film stars such A-list stars as Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Orlando Bloom, Sean Bean and some others.

In 2005, she starred in Fabienne Berthoud's drama Frankie in the title role of Frankie. The actress also acted as a producer of this film. During filming, she spent 3 weeks in a psychiatric hospital, since in the film she was the only actress on the screen: everyone else was real patients. But Diana's most successful work that year was the war drama "Merry Christmas" by French director Christian Carion. Diane Kruger played the role of singer Anna Sorensen, who went to the front to join her husband during the First World War. The film received nominations in the category “Best Foreign Film” for such prestigious awards as “Oscar” and “Golden Globe”. In addition, this was the third film in which the actress starred with her husband.

In March 2006, the premiere of the French action adventure film “Tiger Squads” took place, telling about the events in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century. Diana played the role of the wife of the Russian prince, Constance Radetsky. But most of all, according to the actress, she liked filming the film “Rewriting Beethoven,” since her partner on the set was Ed Harris, who played the role of composer Ludwig van Beethoven. The actress starred in the role of Anna Holz, a student at the Vienna Conservatory and the composer’s assistant. The film premiered on September 10, 2006 at the International Film Festival in the Canadian city of Toronto.

On May 16 and May 27, 2007, Diane Kruger had the honor of hosting the opening and closing ceremonies of the 60th Cannes Film Festival.

But, despite the successful start of her acting career, Diana did not leave the modeling business and in the fall of 2004 presented the collection of fashion designer Louis Vuitton. In addition, the actress periodically participates in clothing shows and appears on the covers of famous magazines around the world. In December 2007, her photograph was placed on the cover of the Russian version of the popular women's magazine Cosmopolitan.

Diane Kruger's most significant film in 2007 was John Tarteltaub's National Treasure: Book of Secrets, an action adventure film from Walt Disney Pictures, which premiered worldwide on December 21. The premiere in Russia was not long in coming and took place a week later, shortly before the New Year - on December 27. In this film, a continuation of the film “National Treasure,” the actress again starred in the role of Abigail Chase along with Nicolas Cage.

In addition, in 2007, the world premieres of 3 more films with the participation of Diane Kruger took place, but have not yet been widely released on Russian screens. This is the adventure film by Richard Shepard “Hunting”, where Richard Gere played one of the main roles. The actress starred in this film as Mirjana. And the second film is a film adaptation of Nelson Mandela’s memoirs “Farewell Bafana” by Danish director Bille August. Diane Kruger plays one of the main roles - Gloria Gregory. English actor Joseph Fiennes also starred in this film. The films will premiere in Russia on January 31 and March 13, 2008, respectively. Also on the closing day of the Cannes Film Festival, May 27, 2007, the comedy by Canadian director Denis Arcand, “The Age of Darkness,” was shown outside the competition program, in which Diana also played one of the main roles. In the fall, the film was nominated from Canada for an Oscar, but whether it will be among the four nominees for Best Foreign Language Film will become known only in January 2008.

In 2009, the science fiction film “Mr. Nobody” by Belgian director Jaco Van Doormael premiered. The film had a limited release in some countries. The film takes place in the not too distant future, when the main character, played by Jared Leto, suddenly wakes up as a decrepit old man and realizes that he is the last mortal on the planet, living out his life among happy immortal people. In addition to Diane Kruger, who played the role of Anna, one of the main characters in the film, Jared Leto and Sarah Polley took part in the film. Instead of Diane Kruger, the role of Anna could have gone to Eva Green.

In 2012, Diane Kruger was invited to play the role of the Bloodhound in the film “The Host” based on the novel by Stephenie Meyer. The film premiered on March 29, 2013.

Anna Evers

Fashion critics and numerous fans dubbed Anna Evers “Venus in jeans.” Some seven years ago, this magnificent beauty was much more in demand than the beginning and still little-known models Jenner and Hadid.

The blonde with full lips is often called “the new Brigitte Bardot” - well, there is definitely a resemblance, although Anna’s facial features are more unconventional and memorable. She selflessly loves coffee, pasta and chocolate, without thinking about the consequences - well, the beauty is only twenty-seven, and for now she can afford any gastronomic delights. Since healthy female bodies are now in fashion, and not slender teenagers with suspected dystrophy, Anna remains one of the main beauties on the planet.

Laura Berlin

Despite the fact that Laura is only thirty years old, she can safely consider herself an “old-timer” in the fashion industry - she began her career at the age of fifteen. Already at seventeen she became a recognizable and sought-after model on a global scale.

She managed to combine filming in advertising with acting training. Laura has made her main dream come true - now she is a famous actress, and often receives new offers from directors. This year we will see three films at once with the participation of this unforgettable beauty.

Diane Kruger: Beautiful and talented

Diana Heidkrüger was born on July 15, 1976 in the commune of Algermissen near the city of Hildesheim, Lower Saxony, Germany in the family of computer specialist Hans-Heinrich Heidkrüger and bank employee Maria Therese Heidkrüger.

When Diana was very young, she began to study ballet.
The girl achieved success at ballet school, but a knee injury put an end to a possible career as a ballerina, and Heidkruger decided to try her hand at another industry - the modeling business. Advertising:
Even before the injury, the parents of the future actress divorced, and the upbringing of two children, Diana and her younger brother Stefan, fell on the shoulders of Maria Therese Heidkruger. To help her mother, Diana, while studying at school and taking ballet classes, worked part-time in a pizzeria and delivered mail. She does not communicate with her father to this day, despite the fact that Hans-Heinrich made public apologies to his daughter and son several times.

At the age of 15, Diana took first place in the Appearance of the Year competition, after which representatives of the Elite modeling agency signed a contract with her. After that, Heidkruger began advertising clothing and perfume lines of many famous companies, including Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Armani, Dolce & Gabbana and others. The girl also appeared on the covers of popular glossy publications - 'Vogue', 'ELLE' and many others.

When Diana achieved some success as a model, she realized that she did not want to devote her whole life to this profession. That is why the girl decided to try her hand at cinema. In 1997, she went to France, where she took part in the casting for one of the roles in Luc Besson's science-fiction action film 'The Fifth Element'. Because of her poor French, the girl was not accepted into the film, but Luc Besson noticed her talent, so he helped her start her career.

The filmmaker advised her to finally quit the modeling business, move to France and focus on filmmaking. Besson also suggested that she take a pseudonym - 'Kruger' instead of the complex and difficult to pronounce 'Heidkruger' in many countries - and Diana liked this idea. She began attending acting classes at the Cours Florent school, in 2001 she appeared in the unremarkable short film Point de lendemain, and a year later she made her big film debut in the television film Virtuoso starring Christopher Lambert and Dennis Hopper. .

In 1999, two years before her film debut, at one of the parties Diana met the French actor and director Guillaume Canet. On September 1, 2001, the couple got married. In 2002, after a small role in the film 'Neither for nor against (but quite the opposite)', which was released in 2003, Kruger starred in her husband's directorial project 'As You Say' (2002).

This was followed by the film 'Michel Vaillant: Need for Speed' (2003), and after that - a significant first role in Hollywood in Wolfgang Petersen's epic 'Troy'. The first Hollywood experience was successful: Kruger showed her best side and confidently settled in the USA. After the high-profile premiere of “Troy” in 2004, two more American-made films with Diana’s participation were released – “Whiplash” and “National Treasure”, and both of them became popular. In 2006, Diana divorced Guillaume Canet after five years of marriage. In June of the same year, she began an affair with American actor Joshua Jackson.

Best of the day

The actress starred in both France and America, and most of the works with her participation became successful. From 2004 to 2008, Kruger appeared in the films 'Glitch' (2004), 'Merry Christmas' (2005), 'Franks' (2005), 'Tiger Squad' (2006), 'Rewriting Beethoven' (2006) ), 'Farewell Bafana' (2007), 'Age of Darkness' (2007), 'Hunt's Hunt' (2007), 'National Treasure: Book of Secrets' (2007) and 'All for Her' (2008).

2009 turned out to be a fruitful year for Diana. She made her debut as a voice actress in the cartoon 'Jackass', shone in Quentin Tarantino's action comedy 'Inglourious Basterds', played in the French film 'The Farewell Affair', where she was accompanied by Willem Dafoe, Emir Kusturica and ex-husband Guillaume Canet, and also performed one of the key roles in the surreal film 'Mr. Nobody'.

From 2010 to 2017, Kruger continued to act in both America and France, and appeared in the works “Barefoot on Slugs” (2010), “Until the Last Breath” (2010), “Unknown” (2011), “Squad special purpose" (2011), "Farewell, my queen" (2012), "Married for 2 days" (2012), "Guest" (2013), "Me, me and mom again" (2013), "Bridge" ( 2013-2014, Diana's first and so far last experience of filming in the series), 'The Galapagos Affair: Satan in Paradise' (2013), 'Better Angels' (2014), 'Fathers and Daughters' (2014), 'Bodyguard' ( 2015), 'Sky' (2015), 'Undercover Scam' (2016) and 'At the Limit' (2017).

The most interesting of the actress's planned works are the biopics 'The Women of Marwen', 'JT Leroy' and 'Butterfly in the Typewriter'. In the first, directed by Robert Zemeckis, Diana will be accompanied by equally famous actors Steve Carell, Leslie Mann and Gwendoline Christie; in the second, Kruger’s colleagues on the set will be Kristen Stewart, Laura Dern, Jim Sturgess and Courtney Love, and in the third - Susan Sarandon, Nick Offerman, Francois Arnault and Marie Avgeropoulos.

In July 2016, Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson separated after 10 years of marriage. Despite the fact that Diana and Joshua did not legalize their relationship, they were called one of the strongest couples in Hollywood. The separation of the actors was confirmation that public opinion often does not correspond to reality. On May 30, 2017, it became known that Diana was dating The Walking Dead star Norman Reedus.

The actress has two awards at the Cannes Film Festival - in 2003, Kruger received the Prize for Best Young Actress, and in 2017 she won the Best Actress nomination for her role in the film At the Limit.

I really like Diane Kruger. I consider her the epitome of the German Aryan, Nordic woman. But the roles in the latest films disappointed me. For example, the movie Killer Virgins. It's just awful. What multiculturalists will come up with just to promote the interracial mixing of European peoples with Asians.

The girl has more than a million followers on Instagram, and she is happy to share the details of her life with such a huge number of people. Twenty-four-year-old Stephanie is one of the brightest stars of the new generation, of whom her compatriots are proud and whom many girls are trying to be like.
