Connie Nielsen
The first role in the English film actress brings success and recognition. For Connie Nielsen, Devil's Advocate will be a good springboard in his career. Further, the Danes will be very successful. Even before adulthood, Connie is easily determined with the choice of a future profession and comprehends him on the stage. The girl will study acting throughout Europe. Moreover, she continues training in the status of a famous actress. When Nielsen moves to America to pursue a film career, she is still practicing acting classes.

Later there will be another role in one series, and only then the girl will receive the first experience of filming in a picture in English. For more than 32 years, she has played in the best Hollywood films with fickle success with critics.
Al Pacino
The world fame was brought to him by the roles of gangsters and bandits, but Pacino remains in the movie a model of a diverse actor with his own twist in each character. He had to play a lawyer, a cook, a policeman and a blind soldier of the American army. After himself, the actor has already left a unique legacy and still remains in demand in the cinema.
Al Pacino was born in 1940 in New York. At that time, the city remained not the best place to live: with street gangs, the prosperity of poverty and drug addiction. A future actor in his teens becomes a witness to the death of his friends from an overdose and will himself avoid the same. A native of a family of Italian immigrants will be troubled in entertainment and study with constant fights, breakdowns and other misconducts.
In childhood and adolescence, the boy will dream of a baseball career. His ambitions were supported by the popularity of the local team, but after 20 years, the guy will also be inspired by the acting profession after one session in the cinema. Only one film, one role and one actor with his brilliant performance made Al Pacino reconsider his plans for the future. It was Ray Milland in Lost Weekend. After watching the young man experiences the patience of the admissions committee in one of the acting studios in New York. There he was refused several times, but the guy manages to become a student of the studio and the guy gives great expectations to his teachers in training.
His colleagues and film critics put Pacino on a par with movie legends in the history of this art. For 46 years on the big screen, the Hollywood star has performed dozens of roles in cult films from among the masterpieces of world cinema.
Keanu Reeves
In the film "Devil's Advocate" (1997 film), the actors gathered in a legendary cast, each of the three main roles was played by a Hollywood star in the frame. The creators of the picture also got their hands on an excellent intricate plot and original idea.
Many of his fans would be surprised at the fact that Keanu was born in Lebanon. It was there that his mother-artist met the biological father of the future actor, but this union did not last long. It was difficult to expect good paternity from a man with experience in drug trafficking and in prison. Reeves could see his dad for the last time when he was 3 years old. But mother quickly finds her stepfather for her children and determines the fate of the legend of world cinema. The new husband was a successful director of productions on Broadway and in Hollywood. He will instill in his adoptive son a love of theater and the acting profession.
Young actor Keanu
At the insistence of the stepfather, the child on the stage will be involved in a serious performance as early as 9 years old, an early debut will bring him experience and self-confidence. The young actor will quickly decide on the choice of a profession in life. He will play his first serious role in staging the Shakespearean tragedy at the age of 15. The stepfather will do everything so that such success is not an accidental childhood hobby, but develops into future career successes.
At that time, the young actor named Keanu Reeves, “Devil's Advocate,” will allow him to fully demonstrate his dramatic abilities. He was born in 1964, in his acting career he will remain at the top of the cinema for over 33 years.
After the success of The Matrix, they tried to assign him the unspoken title of the actor of one role, but Reeves quickly got rid of this nickname with his subsequent large and successful movie roles. Films with his participation entered the classics of cinema.
Charlize Theron
This actress plays film roles for 22 years with great success among critics and viewers. During this time, she starred in dozens of films with top box office grossing worldwide. According to many Hollywood analysts, the actress has already left a mark in the cinema classics.
For Charlize Theron, Devil's Advocate will be a turning point in his career. She played in the film the role of the wife of the protagonist Mary Ann . When the agents recommended that she accept this role, they, of course, knew what they were talking about. Already only the list of her shooting partners in this picture spoke of a lot, even a cursory introduction to the script made it possible to predict the huge success of this film. For the film "Devil's Advocate" (1997 film), the actors will gain recognition and recognition in their future careers. At that time, Charlize had just managed to play three small roles in the movie. The appearance in one picture with Al Pacino will be one of the most important steps in her career. Later, she will be able to develop her success to the Oscars and Golden Globes in 2003 for Best Actress.
Charlize Theron was born in 1975 on South African soil, and at first the African language remained the mother tongue of the future actress. She will learn English later for general development. The Hollywood star owes her achievements to her mother, at her insistence, a girl at the age of 6 is engaged in ballet, and later studies at the national school of art. Father, on the contrary, complicates her life. Chronic alcoholism with bouts of aggression forced him to rush at his wife, and the gifted mother Charlize once had to shoot him. The fact that everything happened before the eyes of the girl when she was 15 years old adds a special drama to this story.
This is probably why Charlize Theron in The Devil's Advocate played the role of a suicide wife easily. She managed to wonderfully believably portray a woman in despair.
