Rampling made her stage debut at the age of 14, singing French chansons with her sister at Bernays Institute in Stanmore.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She began her career as a model and first appeared in a Cadbury advertisement. She was working as a secretary when she was noticed by a casting agent in the same building.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> She made uncredited appearances in two films directed by Richard Lester including his first film with the Beatles, A Hard Day's Night (1964), and as a water skier in The Knack ...and How to Get It (1965).Template:Cn In 1965, she was cast in the role of Meredith in the film Georgy Girl and was given a role by John Boulting in the comedy Rotten to the Core. In 1967, she starred opposite Yul Brynner in the adventure film The Long Duel. She also appeared alongside Franco Nero in the Italian film Sardinia Kidnapped (Sequestro di persona) (1968), directed by Gianfranco Mingozzi.<ref name="Merc">Template:Cite video</ref>

On television, Rampling played the gunfighter Hana Wilde in "The Superlative Seven", a 1967 episode of The Avengers in which she knocked out John Steed.<ref>The Avengers Forever: Guest Actor Biography Template:Webarchive, accessed 7 May 2010</ref> In 1969, she starred opposite Sam Waterston in the romance-drama Three, and in 1972, she starred opposite Robert Blake in the drama Corky and portrayed Anne Boleyn in the costume drama Henry VIII and His Six Wives. After this, her acting career blossomed in both English and French cinema.

Despite an early flurry of success, she told The Independent: "We weren't happy. It was a nightmare, breaking the rules and all that. Everyone seemed to be having fun, but they were taking so many drugs they wouldn't know it anyway."<ref name=byrnes2005>Template:Cite news</ref>

Rampling has performed controversial roles. In 1969, in Luchino Visconti's The Damned (La Caduta degli dei), she played a young wife sent to a Nazi concentration camp. Critics praised her performance, and it cast her in a whole new image: mysterious, sensitive, and ultimately tragic. "The Look", as her co-star Dirk Bogarde called it, became her trademark.<ref name="autogenerated2">Template:Cite news</ref>

1970–early 1980s: mature roles, Hollywood, and Italian cinemaEdit

She appeared in the cult classic Vanishing Point, in a scene deleted from the U.S. theatrical release (included in the U.K. release). Lead actor Barry Newman remarked that the scene was of aid in the allegorical lilt of the film.

In 1974's The Night Porter, in which she again appears alongside Dirk Bogarde, she plays a former concentration camp inmate who, after World War II, reunites with a former camp guard (Bogarde) with whom she had had an ambiguous, sadomasochistic relationship. Their relationship resumes, and she becomes his mistress and victim once again. In 1974, she posed nude for Playboy photographs by Helmut Newton.<ref>Rampling interview Template:Webarchive; accessed 18 January 2016.</ref> In 1976 she co-presented for Best Art Direction-Set Decoration Award with Anthony Hopkins at the 48th Academy Awards.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

In 1974, Rampling starred in John Boorman's science-fiction film Zardoz opposite Sean Connery. She also starred with Peter O'Toole in Foxtrot (1976) and with Richard Harris in Orca (1977). She gained recognition from American audiences as the leading lady in a well-received remake of Raymond Chandler's detective story Farewell, My Lovely (1975) starring Robert Mitchum as Philip Marlowe, and later with Woody Allen's Stardust Memories (1980), and in The Verdict (1982), an acclaimed drama directed by Sidney Lumet that starred Paul Newman.Template:Citation needed

Middle 1980s and 1990sEdit

Rampling starred in Claude Lelouch's 1984 film Viva la vie (Long Live Life), before going on to star in the cult-film Max, Mon Amour (1986), and appear in the thriller Angel Heart (1987). For a decade she withdrew from the public eye due to depression. In the late 1990s, she appeared in The Wings of the Dove (1997), played Miss Havisham in a BBC television adaptation of Great Expectations (1998), and starred in the film adaptation of Anton Chekov’s The Cherry Orchard (1999), directed by Michael Cacoyannis.Template:Citation needed. In 1997, she was a jury member at the 54th Venice International Film Festival.

2000sEdit

Rampling credits François Ozon with drawing her back to film in the 2000s, a period when she came to terms with the death of her elder sister, Sarah, who after having given birth prematurely in 1966, had died by suicide at 23. She told The Guardian: "I thought that after such a long time of not letting her be with me. I would like to bring her back into my life."<ref name="autogenerated2"/> The character she played in Ozon's Swimming Pool (2003), Sarah Morton, was named in her sister's honour.

For most of Rampling's life, she said that her sister had died of a brain haemorrhage; when she and her father learned of Sarah’s death, they agreed they never would let her mother know the truth. They kept their secret until Rampling's mother died in 2001.<ref name="autogenerated2"/>

Rampling appeared in Tony Scott's Spy Game (2001), and she earned César Award nominations for Under the Sand (2000), Swimming Pool (2003), and Lemming (2005). At 59, she appeared in Laurent Cantet's Heading South (Vers le Sud), a 2005 film about sexual tourism. She appeared as Ellen, a professor of French literature, who holidays in 1970s Haiti to get the sexual attention she does not get at home.Template:Citation needed

Hideo Kojima used Rampling's likeness for The Boss, the main antagonist of his game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, released in 2004.

On her choice of roles, Rampling said "I generally don't make films to entertain people. I choose the parts that challenge me to break through my own barriers. A need to devour, punish, humiliate or surrender seems to be a primal part of human nature, and it's certainly a big part of sex. To discover what normal means, you have to surf a tide of weirdness."<ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref>

The actress has continued to work in sexually provocative films, such as Basic Instinct 2 (2006). In 2008, she portrayed Countess Spencer, the mother of Keira Knightley's title character, in The Duchess and played the High Priestess in post-apocalyptic thriller Babylon A.D. In 2002, she recorded an album titled Comme Une Femme, or As A Woman. It is in both French and English, and includes passages that are spoken word as well as selections which Rampling sang.Template:Citation needed. In February 2006, Rampling was named as the jury president at the 56th Berlin International Film Festival.

She has been seen on the covers of Vogue, Interview and Elle, and CRUSHfanzine. In 2009, she posed nude in front of the Mona Lisa for Juergen Teller.<ref>Template:Cite newsTemplate:Cbignore</ref> In 2009, Rampling appeared in Todd Solondz's Life During Wartime.

In 1972, Rampling married New Zealand actor and publicist Bryan Southcombe<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and had a son, Barnaby Southcombe (who became a television director),<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> before divorcing in 1976.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web

}}</ref> The couple was reported to have been living in a ménage à trois with Randall Laurence, a male model,<ref name=byrnes2005/> and in 1974, Rampling was quoted by the syndicated columnist Earl Wilson as saying: "There are so many misunderstandings in life. I once caused a scandal by saying I lived with two men...I didn't mean it in a sexual sense...I was just too dirty to clean my act up. We were just like any people sharing an apartment."<ref>Earl Wilson, An Explanation of Streaking. The Post-Register, Idaho Falls, Monday, 18 March 1974, p. 10</ref> In 2021, Rampling acknowledged the relationship in an interview with The Guardian, saying:

Well, I did have two boyfriends, which was racy at the time...We were all very young. It was all chop and change. Quite a lot of things were experimental, I suppose. How to live a life! I don't know whether I've got it now, but never mind – I had it!<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation

In 1978, Rampling married French composer Jean-Michel Jarre and had a second son, David Jarre, who became a musician and singer.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation

The marriage was publicly dissolved in 1997, when Rampling learned from tabloid stories about Jarre's affairs with other women.<ref name=":0">Template:Cite news</ref> Their divorce was finalised in 2002. Rampling later remarked:

It is not uncommon for a man to have an affair, or even for a woman to have an affair. But the way I found out! In the tabloids. It was demeaning. And then for it to have continued. No, I could not forgive that at the time.<ref name=":0" />

Rampling was engaged to Jean-Noël Tassez, a French journalist and businessman, from 1998 until his death in 2015.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
