Daryl Hannah

Actress and activist

Android, Mermaid, Cave girl, Pretty Woman's friend, Giant... as a little girl, Daryl liked to fantasize -- little did she dream she would play all these roles in movies, and more.

Daryl's breakout role was as the acrobatic, beautiful replicant Pris in Blade Runner (1982); from there she portrayed a mermaid in Splash (1984), and a Cro-Magnon in The Clan of the Cave Bear (1986). She also played the title role in the 1987 film Roxanne, a modern retelling of Edmond Rostand's play Cyrano de Bergerac. Her recent roles include Elle Driver in the Kill Bill series and Maddy Pilager in Silver City.

A keen environmentalist, Hannah lives off of solar power and drives a car that runs on biodiesel.
