Biography
Rosamund was born in England to a family of talented performers: her mother is an established opera singer and her father is a concert violinist. Her theatre talents also took her to faraway Tokyo in productions of The Taming of the Shrew and Macbeth.

Pike admits that she always wanted to be an actress, "although I always assumed I'd work in the theatre rather than be a Bond Girl". Most of her childhood was spent in West London. Her parents, Caroline and Julian, were both opera singers, who travelled a lot to wherever the work was. With such musical parents, it is unsurprising that Rosamund is also talented on the Piano and Cello.

An only child, Pike went to boarding school in Bristol and then on to read English Literature at Oxford University (making her the first Oxford-educated Bond Girl), and she shares her alma mater with actresses Emily Mortimer (Scream 3), Jodhi May (The Last of the Mohicans) - and Chelsea Clinton.

While there, she was offered the part of Lady Harriet in the BBC's adaptation of Wives and Daughters, and then the part of Fanny in Love in a Cold Climate. With many successes under her belt, Pike moved into the world of television and starred in several successful mini-drama's, as popular in the US as the UK.

Pike met her actor boyfriend Simon whilst at Oxford after he saw her performing. Happy to see where life takes her, she has no plans to settle down anywhere and is making the most of her recently found fame.

This is Pike's big screen debut and the world's media is already queuing around the blocks to find out more about this soon to be star.
