Neve Adrianne Campbell (born October 3, 1973) is a Canadian actress. Beginning her career on stage, she came to fame on the 1990s television series Party of Five, and subsequently appeared in leading roles in several Hollywood films, including Scream and Wild Things. She has since appeared in smaller roles.
BiographyEarly lifeCampbell was born in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Her father, Gerry Campbell, an immigrant to Canada from Glasgow, Scotland, worked as a high school drama teacher at Lorne Park Secondary School in Mississauga, Ontario. Her mother, Marnie Neve, is a psychiatrist from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Campbell's maternal grandparents ran a theatre company in the Netherlands and her paternal grandparents were also performers. Campbell is Catholic, but also identifies as Jewish because of her mother's Sephardic Jewish ancestry, specifying that her "lineage is Jewish, so if someone asks me if I'm Jewish, I say yes".[1][2] Her first name means "snow" in Italian and Portuguese; and "oasis" in Hebrew.[3]
Campbell attended Earl Haig Secondary School in Toronto, Ontario. CareerCampbell rose to wider fame after being cast as the lead character, Julia Salinger, in the teen drama series Party of Five; she played this character from 1994 to 2000. Campbell's first widely released film was 1996's The Craft. She subsequently appeared in the successful Scream horror film trilogy, as well as Wild Things, and Three to Tango. She was on People's "50 Most Beautiful People" list in 1998. Following the end of the Scream series, Campbell's career became more low-key, and she appeared in several films that received a limited theatrical release, but were well reviewed by critics, including the 2000 film Panic, in which she starred alongside William H. Macy and Donald Sutherland, and the 2003 film The Company, about Chicago's Joffrey Ballet. Campbell co-wrote, produced, and starred in the film. Despite pre-release publicity suggesting otherwise, Campbell did not break her tradition of having a "no-nudity" clause in her contract for the film. She did break the clause for When Will I Be Loved, released in 2004, a film which was praised by critic Roger Ebert,[4] but which received only a brief and limited theatrical release.
Personal lifeCampbell married Canadian actor Jeffrey Colt in 1995; they divorced in 1998. She has also dated actors John Cusack, Matthew Lillard, and Pat Mastroianni. Campbell appears in campaign literature and videos for the Tourette Syndrome Foundation of Canada and the Tourette Syndrome Association, (a similar organisation in the United States). Her younger half-brother, Damian McDonald, has Tourette syndrome. She also has an elder brother, Christian Campbell, and another brother, Alex, both of whom are actors. In 2005, Campbell began dating John Light, an English actor who she met while filming the movie Investigating Sex. The couple became engaged in December 2005 and live in London, England.[7] When Light proposed, he got down on one knee and recited Shakespeare to Campbell.[8] Filmography
