When Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz met there was no one shouting their names. They were actors wanting to make it to the top. They managed to get a role in a play called Les Grandes Horizontales in 1994, where they acted together as colleagues. Nothing more. They forged a friendship thanks to the experience they had acting at that time.

Building a career — Rachel Weisz

Her first role in a film project was in a small role in the film Death Machine in 1994. However, it was not until 2 years later, in Chain Reaction, that she had her first big breakout movie. There she acted alongside Keanu Reeves and Morgan Freeman.

After several more productions came 1999, the year in which Rachel Weisz’s name became known globally. She participated in the movie Sunshine and also in The Mummy with Brendan Fraser. Then, she was also part of the sequel The Mummy Returns. From then on, roles started to come more easily to her, and she became an established actress who carried weight in the industry.
