Biography

  • Nathalie Boyer is a distinguished French actress, director, and voiceover artist, known for her work in cinema, television, and environmental documentary. She has appeared in notable French productions such as "La Nuée" ("The Swarm"), selected at the Cannes Film Festival 2020, and the cult series "Spiral" ("Engrenages"), in which she played a recurring police role. She also appeared in "Titane" by Julia Ducournau (Palme d'Or 2021), and "France" by Bruno Dumont, both featured in the Cannes selection in 2021.

    She began her acting journey at the age of 6 on stage with the theater company Les Baladins de l'Artense, performing in classical plays including "Pierre et le Loup" and "Knock ou le Triomphe de la Médecine". Deeply influenced by her grandmother's love of both American films and old French cinema, she grew up immersed in storytelling and performance.

    Nathalie is also a highly sought-after voiceover artist, lending her voice to prestigious international campaigns and brands such as LVMH, Colmar Sport, Valrhona, as well as humanitarian causes including a major UNICEF campaign. Her versatility in tone and delivery, combined with her fluency in French and English, make her a standout talent in the voiceover industry.

    Beyond her artistic achievements, Nathalie is committed to activism and environmental protection. She is the General Secretary of the French branch of Earthrace Conservation and actively participates in marine protection missions. She is also the creator of the campaign "Fake Fur Real Woman", advocating against animal cruelty. She owns a farm in the countryside, which serves as a protected area for wildlife, and she keeps bees.

    Nathalie also holds a Ph.D. in Private Law and postgraduate degrees in Business and Labor Law. She passed the French Bar Exam and uses her legal background to support causes she believes in. She has been elected to the Board of Directors of ADAMI (the French collective rights society for performers) and serves as President of the ADAMI Foundation for the Citizen Artist. Her work there focuses on empowering artists through international cooperation, AI policy, and social responsibility.

    Outside of her professional achievements, Nathalie cherishes the memories made on set. She loves to keep souvenirs from the shoots that mark her career. For instance, she treasures her police badge from the series "Spiral". "It's usually the object that comes to me," she says with a smile, "although I have a pretty good idea of which one will mark the experience." These small keepsakes become personal symbols, reminding her not only of each project but also of the lighthearted moments and camaraderie shared.
