Carey Hannah Mulligan (born 28 May 1985) is an English actress. She made her film debut as Kitty Bennet in Pride & Prejudice (2005). She had roles in numerous British programmes and, in 2007, made her Broadway debut in The Seagull to critical acclaim.In 2009, she gained widespread recognition for playing the lead role of Jenny in An Education, winning a BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role and also being nominated for a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award for her performance. She went on to star in such dramatic films as The Greatest, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, Never Let Me Go, Drive and Shame.In 2004, at the age of 18, Mulligan began her acting career by winning the role of Kitty Bennett in Pride & Prejudice, the 2005 period piece film adaptation of the Jane Austen novel. She received the role with help from her school's headmistress, after Mulligan had written to her explaining that she did not want to go to university and asking for help in getting in touch with actor Julian Fellowes, who had spoken at Mulligan's school. After she met Fellowes, he introduced her to a casting agent who was looking to cast an unknown in the film. Later that year, she appeared in a recurring role in the BAFTA award-winning BBC adaption of Charles Dickens' Bleak House, as orphan Ada Clare and onstage in The Hypochondriac. Among her 2007 projects were My Boy Jack, starring Daniel Radcliffe that features her in a supporting role. Mulligan identified with her role Elsie, who vociferously opposes her brother going to war. She earned a Constellation Award for playing the main character Sally Sparrow in an episode of Doctor Who. She rounded out 2007 by appearing in an acclaimed revival of The Seagull, in which she played Nina to Kristin Scott Thomas' Arkadina and Chiwetel Ejiofor's Trigorin. The Daily Telegraph said her performance was "quite extraordinarily radiating'" and The Observer called her "almost unbearably affecting." While in the middle of the production, she had to have an appendectomy, preventing her from being able to perform for a week. For her debut Broadway performance in the 2008 American transfer of The Seagull, she was nominated for a Drama Desk Award, but lost to Angela Lansbury.

At 22, she was cast in her first leading role as 16 year old Jenny in the coming-of-age 2009 release drama An Education, which got rave reviews and commissioned $26 million against a $7.5 million budget at the box office.  She received critical acclaim for her performance, as the press began referring to her as an "It girl". Lisa Schwarzbaum of Entertainment Weekly and Todd McCarthy of Variety both compared her performance to that of Audrey Hepburn.  Rolling Stone's Peter Travers described her as having given a "sensational, starmaking performance,"  while Claudia Puig of USA Today felt that Mulligan had one of the year's best performances,[and Toby Young of The Times felt she anchored the film.  Writing in The Guardian, Peter Bradshaw concluded that she gave a "wonderful performance. For her work, she garnered Golden Globe, Academy Award and Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations, as well as receiving a British Academy Film Award. Mulligan was a recipient of the Shooting Stars Award from the 2009 Berlin International Film Festival  and received a BAFTA Rising Star Award nomination, which is voted on by the British public.She next starred in The Greatest (2010) as the pregnant girlfriend of a boy who dies; her involvement with the project helped it "tremendously", according to the director. It opened to mostly indifferent reviews, with Ty Burr of the Boston Globe criticising it for being "grueling and gently contrived", but was more positive in his assessment of Mulligan. After being selected to join The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences,  she won a British Independent Award for Never Let Me Go, an adaption of the 2005 Kazuo Ishiguro novel, which she starred in and narrated and was released in September 2010 - competing against her other project, the Oliver Stone-directed film Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.  The latter, a sequel to the 1987 movie, is about a new story of greed and power.
