Name: Kate Magowan
Date of Birth: 1 June 1975 Sturdy, unconventionally attractive British actress Kate Magowan built a substantial onscreen career during the mid- to late 2000s. Throughout, she revealed a marked preference for U.K. independent films and a laudable ability to ferret out critically respected material. The actress landed one of her first cinematic roles under the aegis of esteemed director Michael Winterbottom, with a bit part on the filmmaker's 2002 feature 24 Hour Party People -- a hugely ambitious, if imper ... fect, trip through the musical history of Manchester, England. She followed it up (and received higher billing) with the similarly themed It's All Gone Pete Tong (2004), a mockumentary about the rise and fall of a DJ. Magowan is best known to American audiences, however, for her colorful turn as a witch's slave (opposite Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer) in the 2007 Stardust.The film represented Magowan's first major Hollywood effort. In her native England, Magowan appeared as a guest star on such television series as The Bill and Manchild. Read moreKate Magowan movies (actor)User Comments |
