She then received a full government grant to study at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, although, she said in 2008, she "got up to my eyes in debt with a student loan".[6] She graduated from RADA in 2008.[7] Career[edit] Arterton won her first professional role in Stephen Poliakoff's Capturing Mary, while she was still at drama school.[8] Similarly, she made her stage debut as Rosaline in Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost at the Globe Theatre, London in July 2007 before graduating later that year.[9] She made her film debut in St Trinian's (2007) as Head Girl Kelly.[10] Gemma Arterton at the Toronto International Film Festival 2012 In 2008, she appeared in the James Bond film, Quantum of Solace.[11] Chosen from around 1,500 candidates, Arterton plays Bond Girl Strawberry Fields, in what is described as a "nice-sized role".[12] On her character, Arterton describes Strawberry Fields as "the thinking man's crumpet".[13] In 2008, she played the eponymous protagonist in the BBC adaptation of Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles.[14] Also in 2008, she played the role of Elizabeth Bennet in the ITV serial Lost in Austen. Her most controversial role was in the 2009 film The Disappearance of Alice Creed in which Arterton's character is kidnapped and abused in several graphic nude scenes.[15] She is the face of Avon's Bond Girl 007 fragrance, which launched in October 2008.[16] Having already started in a series of advertisements for Avon, Arterton in May 2008 requested a role opposite model Kate Moss for Rimmel, but was blocked on contractual terms under her Avon contract.[17] In 2010, she made her West End debut in the UK premiere of The Little Dog Laughed.[18] She was originally attached to star in a new adaptation of Wuthering Heights[19] as Catherine Earnshaw, however, she later left the project.[20] She is set to star in Burden of Desire.[21] Arterton was seen in the 2010 films Clash of the Titans and Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, and played the lead in Tamara Drewe.[22] In 2011, Arterton was nominated twice by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts for her performances in Tamara Drewe and The Disappearance of Alice Creed.[23] Arterton starred in the action horror film Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters as Gretel opposite actor Jeremy Renner who played Hansel. The 3-D film was set 15 years after Hansel and Gretel killed the witch who kidnapped them.[24] It was released on January 25, 2013. Personal life[edit] On 5 June 2010, Arterton married Stefano Catelli, a fashion consultant, at a private ceremony in Zuheros, Andalucia, Spain.[25] As of early 2013, Arterton lives in London[26] and is separated from her husband.[27] Filmography[edit] Film and television Year Title Role Notes 2007 St Trinian's Kelly Jones 2007 Capturing Mary Liza TV film 2008 Lost in Austen Elizabeth Bennet TV series (2 episodes) 2008 Tess of the D'Urbervilles Tess Durbeyfield TV series (4 episodes) 2008 Three and Out Frankie Cassidy 2008 RocknRolla June 2008 Quantum of Solace Strawberry Fields 2009 The Boat That Rocked a.k.a.
