Biography
Catherine Zeta Jones
began acting at age 11, playing in a production of Annie
and at 13 she starred in a West End production of the
musical Bugsy Malone. When
Catherine Zeta Jones
was 16 she took over the lead in David Merrick's 42nd
Street. Her first regular television role came in the
nostalgic British TV series The Darling Buds of May.
While the U.S. audience was unaware of her work,
Catherine Zeta Jones
was rapidly becoming a star in the UK. In fact, with the
popularity of The Darling,
Catherine Zeta Jones
became a mega-star in the UK. Coupled with her role in
the four-hour television docu-drama Titanic,
Catherine Zeta Jones
got some attention in the United States.
Most importantly, she was noticed by Steven Spielberg,
who recommended
Catherine Zeta Jones
for the female lead The Mask of Zorro. She followed up
this strong Hollywood debut (which this is now
considered despite her appearance in 1986's The Phantom)
with the equally successful Entrapment with Sean
Connery. Now it seems like everyone knows who
Catherine Zeta Jones
is, and will for a good long while if her box-office is
any indicator.
