Eva Mendes is an American actor and model. She was spotted by a talent agent, who recognized her potential and persuaded her to choose a career in the entertainment industry. After a lot of consideration, she dropped out of the university to enter the world of entertainment. She made her debut with the film ‘Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror,’ and was disappointed with her own performance. She worked hard to hone her acting skills and appeared in a number of low-budget movies in order to prove her skills. It was not an easy path for this actor, but her sheer willpower and patience did not go unrewarded. She received recognition, fame, and positive reviews for her performance in the movie ‘Training Day,’ after which her acting career took off. Some of her well-known films include ‘2 Fast 2 Furious,’ ‘Hitch,’ ‘Ghost Rider,’ ‘Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans,’ and ‘Holy Motors.’
