Kate Bosworth: “Blue Crush,” 2002

Kate Bosworth makes waves in “Blue Crush,” stepping out of the ocean in a red and black bikini, surfboard in hand, with water dripping from her hair and body. The film centers on Anne Marie Chadwick, played by Kate, a determined young surfer training for a major competition while juggling personal struggles and romantic entanglements.

Looking every bit the beach goddess, Kate’s athletic physique and sun-kissed glow embody the spirit of a surfer girl. Her career kicked off in the late 1990s, but “Blue Crush” was her breakout role, propelling her into the spotlight. She went on to star in notable films like “Superman Returns,” “21,” and “Still Alice.”
