Young delinquent and wanderer in the past, Gérard Depardieu started his acting career at the small travelling theatre 'Cafe de la Gare' along with Patrick Dewaere and Miou-Miou. After minor roles in cinema, at last, he got his chance in Bertrand Blier's Valseuses, Les (1974). That film established a new type of hero in the French cinema and the actor's popularity grew enormously. Later he diversified his screen image and became the leading French actor of the 80s and 90s. He was twice awarded a César as Best Actor for Dernier métro, Le (1980) and Cyrano de Bergerac (1990), received also an Oscar nomination for 'Cyrano' and a number of awards at international film festivals. In 1996 he was distinguished by the highest French title of 'Chevalier du Légion d'Honneur'. He married Elisabeth Depardieu in 1971, and they divorced in 1996; she appeared with him in Jean de Florette (1986)_ and Manon des Sources (1986)_ qv); their children Guillaume Depardieu and Julie Depardieu are both actors.
Father of Guillaume Depardieu and Julie Depardieu.
Is an accomplished winemaker.
His daughter Roxanne, whose mother is Karine Silla, was born in January 1992.
Convicted of drunk driving in France in 1990. He was sentenced to 2 months jail (suspended) and loss of his license for 6 months.
Had a motorcycle accident and was hospitalized while filming Astérix et Obélix contre César (1999) in Paris.
Underwent emergency quintuple heart bypass surgery in Paris, France, following a heart attack (10 July 2000).
Guillaume Depardieu's wife Elise gave birth to a daughter, making him a grandfather (January 2001).
He became so engrossed in his role of Cyrano de Bergerac (1990) that he refused to shave off his Cyrano beard for a long while after the film was completed.
When he appeared on the "So Graham Norton" (1998) in 2001, it was his first ever interview in the UK. He also confessed to traveling on his motorcycle to the hospital for his bypass operation.
Has his look-alike puppet in the French show "Guignols de l'info, Les" (1988).
Engaged to Carole Bouquet, who had been his longtime companion since 1997, from 2003 to 2005.
His former girlfriend Karine Silla, mother of his daughter Roxanne, is now married to actor Vincent Perez, Deaprdieu's co-star in Cyrano de Bergerac (1990).
Depardieu is a typical name from the center of France.
Time magazine ran a profile that mistakenly suggested that Depardieu might have "participated" in a rape at the age of nine. The claim was based on an interview carried out 13 years earlier and was the result of an incorrect translation. Depardieu is now careful about proper translation.
President of jury at the Cannes Film Festival in 1992.
Born to Réne Maxime Lionel Depardieu called "Le Dédé", a metal worker and firefighter, and his wife Anne Jeanne Josèphe Marillier called "La Lilette", he was the third of five children.

Owns two restaurants in Paris, one of them is called "La Fontaine Gaillon".
Announced his intention to retire from acting in October 2005, saying he believed he had made enough films and wanted to concentrate on his other interests.
A friend of John Travolta, he was asked by Travolta to be his French voice in the dubbed version of Brian De Palma's movie Blow Out (1981).
He has been good friends with Robert De Niro for more than 30 years, since the two worked together in Bernardo Bertolucci's Novecento (1976) in 1974-75.
Was considered for the role of Max in Sergio Leone's gangster epic Once Upon a Time in America (1984). Depardieu said he was willing to perfect an American accent in order to play the role, but instead James Woods was cast.
