Jacinda Barrett is an Australian-American <a href="/biography/jacinda-barrett">actress</a> and former model known for her work in both film and television. She gained early recognition through her appearance on MTV’s reality series The Real World: London and has since starred in notable films such as The Human Stain, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, and Poseidon. Her versatile career also includes appearances in several television series.

<h2>Early Life and Modeling Career</h2>

Born in Queensland, Australia, Jacinda Barrett was raised in a supportive household. Her father, an airport firefighter, encouraged her early interest in the performing arts. That interest gained momentum when she won the annual Dolly Covergirl competition in 1988, a title that launched her modeling career. By the age of 17, she had begun modeling professionally and traveled extensively across Europe under the representation of the Storm Model Management agency, where she collaborated with major figures in the fashion industry, including <a href="/biography/elle-macpherson">Elle Macpherson</a>.

<h2>Transition to Acting</h2>

Although she found success in modeling, Barrett eventually pursued acting, a path that began after studying at the British American Drama Academy in Oxford. Her on-screen debut came with a role in the 1997 horror anthology Campfire Tales. Prior to this, she had appeared in The Real World: London in 1995, though this was a reality TV role rather than an acting credit.

She transitioned more fully into film with appearances in movies such as Urban Legends: Final Cut and gained critical attention for her performance in The Human Stain. Other film credits include The Namesake, Poseidon, The Last Kiss, School for Scoundrels, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Men_(film)">Middle Men</a>, and Matching Jack. Most recently, she portrayed Rudy Franklin in the film So B. It.

She later appeared in a number of other TV series, playing both recurring and main roles.
