Biography

Sofia Boutella is an Algerian actress, dancer, and model who began as a dancer. Born in Algiers and raised in Paris from age 10, she trained in rhythmic gymnastics and joined the French national team at 18. She danced in film, television, commercials, and concerts, spent six years as one of Madonna's backup dancers, and appeared in Nike ads choreographed by Jamie King. Her acting breakthrough came with StreetDance 2 (2012). She went on to appear in Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014), Star Trek Beyond (2016), Atomic Blonde (2017), The Mummy (2017), Climax, Fahrenheit 451 (2018), Hotel Artemis (2018), Prisoners of the Ghostland (2021), and the Rebel Moon films (2023, 2024). In 2017 she played the title character in The Mummy, and GQ named her the best new action star of that year.

    Boutella took the lead role in the music video for Michael Jackson's "Hollywood Tonight," which came out in February 2011.

  3. Big break

    Boutella's dancing breakthrough came in 2007 when she was chosen for Jamie King's choreography for the Nike Women's "Keep Up" campaign, which led to work with Madonna and Rihanna.

  4. Own stunts

    Boutella became a member of the Vagabond Crew, a group that took the Battle of the Year title in 2006. She also danced with a spin-off group called "Chiennes de Vie and Aphrodites".

  5. Early training
