Of Cuban, Puerto Rican and Indian origin, Rosario Dawson was spotted at the age of 16 by Larry Clark , on the steps of the family home. Seduced, the sultry filmmaker offers him one of the main roles in his first film, Kids , a dark description of the daily lives of young New Yorkers which will cause a scandal when it is released. A debut noted by Spike Lee in particular, who directed her in his sports drama He Got Game in 1998. Rosario Dawson then increased the number of filmings, and played the same year in Side streets , before moving on to Light it up (1999), In love and King of the jungle in 2000.
2001 was a pivotal year, since she launched numerous independent projects in a few months, from comedy ( Josie and the Pussycats , Encounters in Manhattan by Edward Burns ) to drama ( Chelsea Walls or Ash Wednesday , still by and with Edward Burns ), and attracted the attention of major American studios. She thus plays Eddie Murphy in the science fiction comedy Pluto Nash , before facing the aliens of MIIB alongside Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones . In 2002, she reunited with Spike Lee for The 25th Hour , a post-September 11 drama where she played Edward Norton ‘s companion . Confirming that she is one of the actresses whose popularity is rising, she appeared in 2004 in Oliver Stone
‘s peplum , Alexandre , before completing the plethoric cast of the adaptation of the comic Sin City . While she films with the greatest directors including Quentin Tarantino – with whom she plays in Boulevard of Death – she also works with directors from independent cinema such as Kevin Smith in Clerks II (2006). In 2008, Rosario rubbed shoulders with rising actor Shia LaBeouf in The Eye of Evil and met Will Smith with whom she formed a couple in Seven Lives . In 2009, she participated in the dubbing of The Haunted World of El Superbeasto directed by Rob Zombie before playing the first female lead role in Unstoppable by

Also in 2014, the beautiful actress dons Gail’s leather ensemble for Sin City: I Killed for Her and is starring in Atom Egoyan ‘s new film , the thriller Captives . A little less present in the cinema, even if she delivers notable performances in Rivales or Krystal in 2017, the New York native favors the small screen and her numerous series. Among them, the Marvel programs Daredevil , Iron Fist , The Defenders and Luke Cage , in the skin of nurse Claire Temple, but also Dopesick , where she plays a determined investigator reminiscent of her character from Captives.
At the same time, Rosario Dawson is very active in the field of dubbing.
