A pretty face is no longer enough to make a big career in Hollywood. You need character, rough edges and your own opinion. And the courage to turn down even lucrative roles. Rachel McAdams made her breakthrough with “Mean Girls” (2004) and “The Notebook” (2004).
Blonde and pretty, nice to look at, the eternal lover. A role that suits her, but soon bores her. That’s why she turns them all down, the offers for “Casino Royale” (2006), “Iron Man” (2008) or “The Dark Knight” (2008). The wait was worth it, and in 2015 she landed her biggest coup yet with the role of sleuth Ani Bezzerides in the hit series “True Detective”. Here she can shoot at people, swear, run and just really let her hair down. And without lipstick and painted fingernails. Because Rachel McAdams is not afraid of getting dirty. Before Hollywood, she even worked at McDonalds – since then she has been a convinced vegetarian.

5 This woman is by no means a mouthful! The distance between the eye and brow is greatest in the center of the eye, which indicates a strong communicator.
6 Rachel McAdams is rarely ill. Never, actually. Their robust health can be seen in their drooping earlobes
7 “When I step on someone’s foot on set, I always have to laugh,” says Rachel McAdams about herself. This statement matches her rather balanced upper lip, which attests to her lack of empathy for others.
