Biography

VERONIKA LONDON

It is tempting to compare actress Veronika London
with other contemporary bombshells. After all, Maxim
magazine boldly christened her “The Megan Fox” of
Canada in a sultry photo spread that set hearts and
imaginations ablaze. But the Mexican-born beauty, raised
in Canada, is charting a course all her own.


Her provocative performances on HBO’s LINGERIE and
Showtime’s BODY LANGUAGE garnered her an instant
following and put the world on notice that London’s appeal
was much more than skin deep – she had acting chops
and wasn’t afraid to use them. London’s career has also
blossomed into the Spanish-language world in the films
MEET MY WATER BUFFALO and the dark comedy short film
THE ELUSIVE MAN. The latter garnered several festival
awards including the “Action on Film Award” at the Action
on Film International Film Festival. London is drawn to
character-driven roles that offer what she calls “conflicting
rawness.”


London was in a star-turn performance as the
title character in Nadeem Soumah’s gritty feature film
SEARCHING FOR ANGELS opposite Vivica A. Fox (KILL
BILL, INDEPENDENCE DAY). London plays a heroin-
addicted prostitute who is discovered beaten in the street
with no memory of her past. Refusing to trade on her
looks, London fearlessly sheds the trappings that made her
a Canadian sex symbol, and creates a riveting portrait of a
young woman at serious risk. The result is a performance
that is spellbinding in its power and truth.


London was born in Mexico City and raised in Toronto.
Currently, she divides her time in Vancouver and Los Angeles.
Along with acting, London is the host of TORO TV’s Damage Control.
