Rosamund was born the only child of opera singers Caroline and Julian Pike. During her childhood, Pike followed her parents who travelled all over Europe wherever their performing careers took them. After winning a scholarship to Badminton School in Bristol, where she played Juliet in a production of “Romeo and Juliet” at the National Youth Theatre, she was noticed by an agent who later helped her build a professional career. At first, Rosamund was rejected by every stage school she applied to, but eventually took a place to read English Literature at Wadham College, Oxford from which she later graduated. During her schooling, she appeared on British television in some movies and mini-series, in order to pay her school costs. She took her time, accumulating stage experience in several plays by Shakespeare, and achieved an Upper Second class degree in 2001.
Soon upon graduation, Pike won her debut role in “Die Another Day” (2002) where she got to portray a James Bond girl, starring next to Pierce Brosnan. The next year, she faced a new challenge on stage, when she appeared in a production of “Hitchcock Blonde”, a role which brought her strong reviews since she was required to appear completely nude in only a pair of high heels. A few years later, Rosamund landed a supporting part in “Pride and Prejudice” (2005), in which she appeared next to Keira Knightley. New roles soon followed as she starred in “Fugitive Pieces” and “Fracture” with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling. In 2011, she played the part of Kate Sumner in Bond spoof film “Johnny English Reborn” and a year later the role of Queen Andromeda in “Wrath of the Titans”.
Among her other notable appearances is her role of Helen Rodin, the female lead next to Tom Cruise in “Jack Reacher”. In 2014, Pike was seen in David Fincher’s thriller “Gone Girl”, a screen adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s novel of the same name; here, she featured opposite Ben Affleck, portraying the role of Amy Dunne. The film turned out to be a box office hit and Pike’s performance earned considerable acclaim from critics worldwide, a boost to her net worth.
Some of her latest activity includes the voicing of Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward in “Thunderbirds Are Go”. In February 2016, she appeared in Massive Attack’s music video for “Voodoo in My Blood”.
Rosamund has received various nominations and awards, among others the Academy Award for Best Actress, BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role, the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress and many others.
When it comes to her personal life, Pike was in a relationship with actor Simon Woods for two years while studying at Oxford, and despite their break-up, the two played lovers in “Pride and Prejudice” some time later. In 2007, she was engaged to film director Joe Wright but in 2008 he cancelled the wedding. She has been in a relationship with a mathematical researcher, Robbie Uniacke since December 2009, and the couple have two sons.
