━━━━━ lazily written biography .
léonie was born in the city of amsterdam in the early 1970′s to constantin + thea cruyssen. they were a family of five. the cruyssens moved to manhattan when their kids were young ( their ages aren’t too far apart ) . raised the children mostly in new york city. every summer they’d visit their extended family in the netherlands. she wasn’t too bad of a student throughout her scholastic years. she had a keen interest in acting , but always had a great appreciation for film and its history . so when it was time for college applications , she chose tisch school of the arts and hoped the school would accept her application. they accepted her ! in that moment , her life’s made and was off to start her journey as an ACTRESS .
léonie graduated from nyu in 1994 for a bachelor’s in drama and performance studies. she spent two years working as a waitress in new york before having the desire to move , but she managed to earn herself some acting gigs. it wasn’t easy but she’d have guest starring & recurring roles on popular tv shows such as law & order and nypd blue. basically shows that were based in new york. fast forward to 1996 when she decided to move to los angeles at the age of 24. when leonie first moved to LA , she started working as a waitress ( again ) , babysitter , and a dog walker so that she is able to afford a roof over her head , pay the bills , and have food on the table to survive. after quite some time , she was able to hire an agent to help keep her career in check or offer what’s best. the redhead was pleased with how her life was going even with a few hardships here and there.
thankfully , she and her agent have been together ever since , and only being in los angeles for nearly a year. at the start of her journey as an a performer , she was eternally grateful for the roles she’d gotten ... but why did they have to be the most STEREOTYPICAL WOMEN portrayed on small screens and big screens ? THIS occured a few years before the 21st century ! so that’s when she started to slowly but surely build her career. her agent understood , meaning that they stood by her still. HALLELUJAH ! grateful as ever , léonie never once slowed down for anything. [ rihanna’s work plays in the background ] anyways , she hasn’t stopped working. her agent tells her that she’s a damn workaholic and all she can respond with is , ‘ so are you ! ’ or ‘ that makes two of us ! ’ throughout this time , léonie has secretly written and sold scripts to production companies without receiving any of the credit. to this day , it’s probably what she regrets the most.
years and years have gone by and miss winters is known for portraying very intense women on the big screen. she is probably most notable for being cast as POISON IVY from the dc comics. winters almost dropped out of the project without a reason , however she felt / believed she wasn’t good enough to act the part of a unique character. later , she’d take up roles such as a headstrong business woman to a spy and a central intelligence agent. for a women to portray ‘em was possible in the film industry and would kindly imply that women shouldn’t be afraid to follow their passions / dreams no matter what they were. her favorite role would have to be portraying a vigilante with an anti - hero qualities. forget about the comics for a sec , it was an “original” script. yadda yadda yadda , LÉONIE’S AN A - LIST ACTRESS. how the fuck did that happen ?
appearances , red carpets , excessive interviews , traveling , movie premieres , etc. the dutch - american never thought she would be in the position that she is in currently. she has a desire of wanting to disappear from the limelight and focus on herself a little more as she has been described as restless and anomalous. this red head in particular doesn’t have time for any bullshit NONSENSE , honestly. leonie’s gonna do what’s she’s gotta do with respect , harmony , confidence , and dignity. screw anyone that’s out to get her and other women in the industry. she will stand up for everyone , including talents that have potential. she’ll be following your career without you knowing it. she’s full of wonder and has an element of surprise. even if she’s feeling rather weary , she’s still working to the maximum degree today. the bitch needs to rest at some point.
