Alice Braga, born of Sao Paulo, Brazil, debuted to most as Angelica in 2002 film City of God, directed by Fernando Meirelles. Her film creditials include “Journey to the End of the Night”, “Solo Dios Sabe” (God Only Knows), Cheiro do Ralo; O (Drained) and “Cidade Baixa” (Lower City).

Director Francis Lawrence had only positve remarks about Braga:

“She was the first and only person to read with Will. There was something very warm and authentic about her. There is something very believable about her and she had really strong qualities of a survivor that impressed all of us,” Lawrence said. “The other thing was being from a different country made our story more global. Our issue wasn’t just in Manhattan it was global.”

Braga also commented about working with Smith on the film:

“I loved what Frances said and as an actress playing opposite him, it was a pleasure to work with someone that wants to give you more and more and more. He wants to open the door for you and make you feel really comfortable,” Braga enthused. “He just all the time pushes me harder and harder. He pushed me somewhere where he wanted me to go. For me it was my first American movie and it was an enormous and pleasurable opportunity.”
