The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon's Clémence Poésy has been part of iconic franchises like Harry Potter

Born on October 30, 1982, in L’Haÿ-les-Roses, Clémence Poésy is the daughter of actor/writer Étienne Guichard and a teacher. She attended school in Meudon and soon received her first acting job at age 14. She only had two lines, but her performance was nothing short of spectacular. Her younger sister, Maëlle Poésy-Guichard, is also an actress.

Clémence Poésy studied drama and acting at Conservatoire National Supérieur d'Art Dramatique and Paris Nanterre University. Her first proper role came in the BBC mini-series Gunpowder, Treason & Plot, released in 2004. She portrayed Mary, Queen of Scots, for which she was accoladed with 2005 Golden FIPA. She played Fleur Delacour in the Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. In 2007, she appeared in the mini-series, mini-series War and Peace.

In an older interview with the Times, she explained how French women had been stereotyped for decades.

She said,

“Don’t get me started. The possessive, destructive men in the play made me think a lot about now. In the UK, French women are still sometimes seen as highly sexualised beings who love flirting and seduction. But actually, there is a considerable fight against these old stereotypes in France right now.”

In 2010, she co-starred with James Franco in the film 127 Hours, directed by Danny Boyle. She even appeared in the movie Mr. Morgan’s Last Love and made her Broadway debut in 2012. In 2013, she played the lead character in the show The Tunnel. She even appeared in Christopher Nolan’s 2020 film, Tenet.
