Executive summary: X-Men, Bond Girl Famke Janssen was wildly successful as a Dutch model, and eventually moved to New York and evolved into an actress. Her first prominent role was as the Bond girl Xenia Onatopp in GoldenEye (1995). She has been molded into action figures based on her Xenia character in GoldenEye, and as Dr. Jean Grey in the X-Men movies. She also played a sexpot spy in the tepid Eddie Murphy-Owen Wilson film of I Spy, ran the poker club in Rounders with Matt Damon, was part of The Faculty's faculty, and was memorably spongebathed by Michael Douglas in Don't Say A Word.
She was married to director Tod Williams (The Door in the Floor) from 1995-2000, when he dumped her for the younger Gretchen Mol.
