Brigitte Millar, a multi-talented and bilingual European/English actress, hails from London and boasts a rich family heritage. Her ancestry is rooted in the renowned painter Emil Nolde, whose natural creativity she has inherited. Despite her family's legacy, Brigitte's artistic inclinations were initially discouraged, a fate that might have been sealed had it not been for the unwavering support of her brother.
After being made redundant from her day job, Brigitte considered pursuing a career in dance, but her brother steered her towards acting, where she discovered a lifelong passion and talent. Following her graduation from drama college, Brigitte landed the role of 'Emmeline Vance' in the highly acclaimed 'Harry Potter' film, directed by David Yates, marking the beginning of a successful and consistent career in the industry.
In 2011, Brigitte won the Best Supporting Actress award at the International Film Festival in Los Angeles for her outstanding performance as 'Amelia Holland' in the multi-award-winning feature film 'David is Dying', directed by Stephen Lloyd Jackson. This film made history by winning 8 awards in the United States alone, becoming the first British Independent feature film to achieve this feat.
Throughout her career, Brigitte has had the privilege of working alongside some of the most respected and experienced actors in the industry, including Dakota Blue Richards in 'The Quiet Hour', which was nominated for the Best UK Feature Film award at the International Raindance Film Festival in 2014. As an active member of the Actors Centre in London, Brigitte has had the opportunity to study with renowned acting coaches such as Jack Waltzer and Bernard Hiller.
Her impressive repertoire includes the role of the villain, Dr. Vogel, in 'Spectre', opposite Daniel Craig and Christoph Waltz, and she will be reprising her role in the upcoming film 'No Time To Die', directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga. In 2019, Brigitte received an Award of Merit for Acting for her role as Claire Winters in the passion project 'Nox' at the Film Festival in Atlanta, USA. The following year, she was awarded Best Supporting Actress for the same role at the INDIE X Festival in L.A., USA.
With her O1 visa in hand, Brigitte is now poised to take on any challenge that comes her way. In her free time, she enjoys Ballroom and Latin American dancing, Argentine Tango, horse-riding, reading, visiting art galleries, and meditation.
