Well-versed in both drama and action, French actor Sebastien Cipolla was born with the kind of look and talent only stars are made of.

With an international look, a seductive French accent few can resist, and the kind of undeniable sex appeal that makes the hearts’ of girls around the world melt, Sebastien Cipolla has found great success as both an actor and a model in France, Australia, Canada and the United States. Cipolla’s good looks and charismatic disposition have made him the face of commercials for well-known brands like Oakley, Porsche, EA Sports Tiger Woods PDG Tour 14, Commonwealth Bank, Call of Duty, and many more.

While his natural aesthetic appeal has made him an easy cast for international advertisements, it’s his versatility as an actor that has landed him starring roles in films like The Heart of Mind, Lost Angels, What’s in the Case?, So, You Want to be a Gangster?, Curse of the Slender Man, To Dear Mary, and many more.

Originally from Lille, France, a metropolis just north of Paris, Sebastien Cipolla’s extensive training in martial arts and motorcycle acrobatics have given him an edge over the predominant pretty boy actors of Hollywood.

“I love the rush of doing motorcycle stunts in front of crowds, it’s the same feeling I get when I’m acting out a character on stage, it’s as if I am reborn from the adrenaline of the experience,” said Cipolla.

With a tenacious dedication to his craft that is apparent in all of his work, Cipolla has proven time and time again that when it comes to acting, he truly is the whole package.

“My aim is, and has always been, to push myself out of my comfort zone… As an actor, I tend to choose characters that I feel are as far away from myself as possible, that is where I experience the most growth,” said Cipolla.

One Busy Brazilian: Actress Marilia Colturato

Leave a comment

While most of her peers were learning how to draw stick figures and overcome the challenges of potty training Brazilian actress Marilia Colturato was discovering her life’s passion in the world of acting. This incredible actress, whose name and reputation are known throughout Brazil, has amassed an impressive acting repertoire which has come to include renowned theater productions, award-winning films, and hit television shows from around the world. After moving to Hollywood in 2012, Colturato began working on several films including the crime drama Mao Winters P.I., the sci-fi flick Anton, as well as Jonestown, Nat, and Living in Berlinda.

Her most recent projects include C’est La Vie which was written and directed by Ari Aster, and The Expert which will be featured in the 48-Hour Film Festival. Colturato plays the challenging role of young Judy in Arthur Lang’s The Expert which was produced by Red Ahead Productions.

The film centers on the traumatic past of Judy, a young woman who is unable to cope with adulthood after being sexually abused in her youth. Colturato takes her craft to the next level in the film as audiences see her live out one of the most difficult experiences for any human being–– the ill-fated day when Judy’s innocence is lost forever.

“The whole process of shooting The Expert was very challenging, but the more difficult it is to tap into the character, the more satisfying the experience is for me overall,” said Colturato. “It was disturbing to play a girl who had been abused by a stranger–– trying to imagine what was happening in the girl’s mind during the act, and being in a position where you have no control over what is happening to you was overwhelming to say the least. ”

The next project on this extremely talented actress’s schedule is Alain Villeneuve’s upcoming horror film Purgatory which is scheduled to begin production later this year.

Colturato also appears in the series A Girls Guide to Blacking Out alongside actor Doug Haley who is known for his roles in True Blood, Good Luck Charlie, Abducted, Heroes, Justified, as well as others. Be sure to check out Colturato in this new hit comedy which follows a group of college friends as they attempt to help their socially awkward friend overcome her inhibitions by taking her on a 30-day party bender.
