Biography by Cammila Collar

Model and actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley became a familiar name to many when she was cast in the big-budget 2011 action thriller Transformers: Dark of the Moon. The doll-faced beauty was already a familiar face to fashionistas by that point, having lent her visage as a model to designers like Burberry, Agent Provocateur and Victoria's Secret, but the British born starlet would make her transition to acting with the CG extravaganza, starring alongside franchise alum Shia LaBeouf. In 2015, she made her second film appearance, in Mad Max: Fury Road.
