KATE BECKINSALE

Kate Beckinsale is famous for a variety of film and television roles, including action and romance genres. While her acting abilities are often praised, she does not get the credit she deserves for her wit. In case you don’t know, Beckinsale attended Oxford and holds an impressive IQ score of 132. In addition to her educational background, her powerful mind has allowed her to learn multiple languages. Currently, she speaks French, Russian, English, and German.

A young Beckinsale was singled out for her intelligence while in grade school, and school reports cited a reading comprehension of an 11-year-old when she was only six years old. She was also a keen writer as a young child and won awards for poetry and fiction. Since her first appearance in Hollywood, Beckinsale has steadily become one of the industry’s most recognizable faces.
