As a Hollywood actress, Rachel Weisz is one of the most instantly recognizable women in the world, but in a series of black and white school photos from when she was 14, the now 53-year-old looks remarkably different.
Rachel, who has been married to James Bond star Daniel Craig since 2011, began acting in the early 1990s, just a few years after her school photos were taken in 1984, but prior to her career as a thespian, Rachel dabbled in modeling – hence the moody shots!

How did Daniel Craig meet Rachel Weisz?
The couple first crossed paths in the 1990s before later reconnecting on the set of Dream House. Daniel, 55, plays publisher Will Atenton in the psychological thriller, whilst Rachel, 53, stars as Will's wife, Libby.
Daniel and Rachel kept much of their blossoming romance under wraps. So much so that their 2011 wedding came as a complete surprise. The couple wed just six months after they started dating.

He went on to say: "Because we didn't want it [expletive], because that would be sharing a secret. And the whole point is that it was a secret. A secret is a secret in my mind."

In a touching display of affection, Daniel was photographed with his arm around his wife. For the special occasion, Daniel looked dapper in an earth-toned linen suit, whilst Rachel looked her usual polished self in a chic ruffled black dress.

"Ultimately, people are saying, 'Give it six months.' Well, guess what? I'm not responding. Life is long and I am hopefully in this for the long run."
