Happy Birthday, Diane Kruger
The stunning ‘Inglourious Basterds’ actress hits the big 4-0 today.
Timeless German beauty Diane Kruger hits a major milestone today: the Troy, National Treasure, and Inglorious Basterds star turns 40.
Kruger got her start in prime fairytale fashion, getting plucked from a remote town in Germany to become a top fashion model. After years of shooting for the greats (Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, and Giorgio Armani, to name a few), Kruger settled down in Paris and enrolled in the prestigious French drama school Cours Florent.
After becoming a breakout star in her adopted France, Kruger set her sights on Hollywood, where she made her debut as iconic beauty Helen in 2004’s Troy (not a bad start).
After years of wowing audiences with impressively idiomatic English and magnetic screen presence, Kruger nabbed her biggest role to date in 2008 as double-crossing German actress/spy Bridget von Hammersmark in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds.

The trilingual actress currently stars alongside Bryan Cranston in the crime drama The Infiltrator, which she recently spoke about on the Today show.
40 looks good on you, Diane.
