Biography

Alison Doody was born in Dublin, Ireland, the youngest of three children. Her intention was to go to the Art College but she did not work hard enough for it so she did a few TV commercials instead, until an agent from London saw her work and suggested to her to try acting. The first feature film she ever did was the Bond movie A View to a Kill (1985) in which she had a small but pivotal cameo as Jenny Flex. Doody's biggest involvement, though, was playing the part of Dr. Elsa Schneider in the third installment of the Indiana Jones franchise. After that, she did a few more movies and then retired momentarily to marry the Irish media tycoon Gavin O'Reilly. Together, they had two daughters.After a break of almost nine years, Alison Doody came back to the silver screen again in 2003 when she was asked to cameo in Michael Caine's comedy The Actors (2003). There she regained a passion for the movie industry and realized how much she missed acting. She has now committed herself to several new projects, including a remake of H. Rider Haggard's novel _"King Solomon's Mines" (2004) (mini)_ , which she shot with Patrick Swayze in South Africa in the summer of 2003. In recent interviews, she said she was absolutely thrilled to be back in front of the cameras again.

Trivia

Neighbour is the well-known singer, Enya.
Lives in a £1.95 million, 10,000 square feet house overlooking the sea at Dalkey.
In 2000, she settled a libel action against the Mirror Newspaper Group of Dublin in Ireland, following the publication of a 1999 press article that erroneously claimed she had appeared nude or partially nude on screen. Before the case was due to get underway, a settlement was agreed and Edward Walsh for the Irish Mirror read an apology to the High Court, saying that it was quite untrue that she had ever appeared nude or partially nude in her film roles. He also stated that it is a well-known fact that throughout her career she has always adamantly refused to participate in scenes involving nudity, and that this refusal has cost her the loss of many lucrative roles. The Irish Mirror paid damages, although the actual amount is unknown. Miss Doody told the media that she was quite happy that it was over, and that her good name had been vindicated.
Has played opposite three Bond actors in three different movies. She had a cameo appearance in A View to a Kill (1985) in which she shared a scene with Roger Moore, she played Pierce Brosnan's girlfriend in Taffin (1988) and starred along with Sean Connery in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989).
She has been presented with the Prince's Trust Award for Charity, for her constant and generous support to children in need.
Director 'Peter Jackson (I)' personally offered her the role of Éowyn in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), but she declined due to her impending pregnancy, which wouldn't have worked with the 18-month on-location production the movies required. The role eventually went to Miranda Otto.
She has turned down several acting offers throughout her career, including the role of Al Pacino's girlfriend in Carlito's Way.
Has two daughters with Gavin O'Reilly: Alanna (born 1996) and Lauren (born 1999).
