Xavier Laurent, a rare and talented individual, hails from Aix en Provence, a city in the picturesque South of France. This extraordinary actor possesses the unique ability to effortlessly transition between being an "everyman" in everyday life and radiating movie-star charm on camera. His striking features include elegant, disheveled silver-streaked hair, piercing pale-blue/green eyes, and a dashing bristle-brush stubbled chin. His winsome smile, reminiscent of the legendary Paul Newman, has undoubtedly earned him a significant amount of good karma.
Xavier's academic background is impressive, having studied Economics at McGill University in Montreal, followed by enrollment in the renowned Cours Florent in Paris. He then further honed his craft by training in both American and British techniques, including Meisner, Strasberg, Adler, and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
Xavier's acting career began with the successful French TV series "School of Life," which garnered widespread acclaim in France and abroad. He has since appeared in numerous big-budget Hollywood films, sharing the screen with A-list stars such as Chris Hemsworth, Olivia Wilde, Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Tom Hanks, and Omar Sy. These impressive credits include "Rush," "RED2," "Monuments Men," and "Inferno."
When he's not working on film and television projects, Xavier is recognized for his exceptional skills as an acting coach, mentoring the next generation of acting greats. He currently resides in Aix with his wife and daughter.
As Xavier so eloquently puts it, "Acting is the Art of Movement. It is making words into flesh."
