Career
Eva Mendes began her acting career after a talent manager saw her photo in a friend’s portfolio.
Her first film role was that of one in a group of young people who become lost in middle America in the direct-to-video horror film Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror. Mendes was disappointed in her performance and soon hired an acting coach.
She subsequently took on the roles of a bridesmaid in the comedy A Night at the Roxbury (1998), with Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan, a housekeeper in the fantasy family film My Brother the Pig (1999), with Scarlett Johansson, and that of an ill-fated film student in the slasher film Urban Legends: Final Cut (2000).
Eva Mendes appeared in the Steven Seagal action thriller Exit Wounds (2001), which made over US$73 million worldwide. According to Mendes, her voice was dubbed in the editing, with a producer telling her that she “didn’t sound intelligent enough”.
Her breakthrough came later in 2001 with her performance as the mistress of a corrupt cop in Antoine Fuqua’s crime thriller Training Day, alongside Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke.
Her role in Training Day led to larger film parts and Mendes soon established herself as a Hollywood actress.
Eva Mendes starred as the love interest of a professional dating consultant (Will Smith), in her next film, Hitch (2005.
In the romantic comedy Trust the Man (2006), Mendes starred with David Duchovny, Billy Crudup, Julianne Moore, and Maggie Gyllenhaal, playing what The A.V. Club described as a “vapid sexpot”
In 2008, Mendes took on the role of a perfume salesgirl in Saks Fifth Avenue in the all-female comedy The Women, opposite Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Debra Messing, and Jada Pinkett Smith.
In 2013, Mendes appeared in the HBO comedy film Clear History, as a formerly heavy-set woman, and in 2014, she starred as a cabaret show performer in Ryan Gosling’s directorial debut Lost River, which competed in the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes Film Festival.
This would be her last acting role until 2021, when she voiced a character in the animated series Bluey in the episode “Born Yesterday”.
Many media outlets have cited her as one of the world’s most beautiful Latin women, and she has been often considered a sex symbol. She once embraced that status, saying it was “partially self-created … I think at times I play up my sexiness. And there’s times where I don’t”, though she does not let it interfere with her film work: “I like it when it doesn’t limit my career. It’s a part of my life, but on a secondary plane”.
Nevertheless, her professional trajectory throughout the 2000s tended to gravitate towards parts that relied heavily on her looks.
She has not appeared in a film since 2014.
Eva Mendes ranked 54th, 12th, 7th, 7th, and 11th in Maxim magazine’s Hot 100 issue in 2002, 2005, 2007, 2008, and 2010 respectively, and appeared several times on the cover.
She also ranked 80th, 23rd and 44th in FHM magazine’s “100 Sexiest Women in the World” supplement in 2004, 2005, 2006.
Eva Mendes was voted number four in the 2008 edition, and number one in the 2009 edition, of AskMen.com’s Top 99 Most Desirable Women.
People also named her one of 2011’s Most Beautiful at Every Age.
