Early Life and Education

Adèle Exarchopoulos was born on November 22, 1993, in Paris, France, to Didier Exarchopoulos, a guitar teacher, restaurant manager, and film producer (president of 1660 Productions), while her wife, Marina Niquet, is a nurse.

Raised in the 19th arrondissement with two brothers, Baptiste and Émile Exarchopoulos, she grew up in a supportive family that encouraged her creativity.

To overcome shyness, Exarchopoulos began acting lessons at age 9, participating in theater and improvisation courses that sparked her passion.

She attended local schools in Paris but left formal education early to pursue acting, training through workshops and on-set experiences rather than a traditional drama school.

She is of multicultural background, blending French and Greek heritage, though she keeps her religious beliefs private.

Adèle Exarchopoulos started acting at 9 with small TV roles in R.I.S. Police scientifique (2006) and commercials, building confidence through theater.

Her breakthrough came in Abdellatif Kechiche’s Blue Is the Warmest Colour (2013), where her raw portrayal of Adèle, a young woman discovering love and sexuality, won the Palme d’Or at Cannes (shared with co-star Léa Seydoux and director) and a César for Most Promising Actress.

The film’s graphic intimacy sparked controversy but showcased her fearless commitment, earning global acclaim and comparisons to Marion Cotillard.

Exarchopoulos followed with diverse roles in Racer and the Jailbird (2017) as a race car driver’s wife, The White Crow (2018) opposite Ralph Fiennes, and Sibyl (2019) as a troubled actress, earning César nominations.

She starred in Mandibles (2020), a quirky comedy, and Zero Fucks Given (2021), portraying a flight attendant’s emotional turmoil.

Her second César for Best Supporting Actress came in All Your Faces (2023), a drama on restorative justice.

Recent work includes The Five Devils (2022), Passages (2023), and voicing Fear in the French dub of Inside Out 2 (2024), blending indie depth with mainstream appeal.

Adèle Exarchopoulos continues to select challenging roles, with upcoming projects exploring family and identity.

Her influence extends through advocacy for women’s stories and mentorship in French cinema workshops.

Awards like the Trophée Chopard at Cannes (2014) and her Palme d’Or honor underscore her legacy as a bold, authentic voice in contemporary film.
