Early life

Lane was born in New York City on January 22, 1965. Colleen Leigh Farrington, the mother of her child, was a nightclub singer and Playboy centerfold who was also known as "Colleen Price" at the time (Miss October 1957). Burton Eugene Lane Lane, a Manhattan drama coach who worked with John Cassavetes, served as a taxi driver and later taught humanities at City College. When Lane was 13 years old, her parents were divorced. Lane's mother moved to Mexico and obtained a divorce, but she did not have custody of Lane until she was six years old. After Lane's mother moved to the state of Georgia, Lane's father was given custody of her child. Lane and her father worked in a number of residential hotels in New York City, and she rode with him in his taxi.

When Lane was 15, she declared her independence from her father and flew to Los Angeles for a week with actor and friend Christopher Atkins, with whom she appeared in the 1981 film Child Bride of Short Creek. "It was irresponsible conduct that comes from having too much autonomy at a young age," Lane later said. She returned to New York with a friend's family, paying their rent. After taking correspondence classes, she enrolled in high school in 1981. Lane's mother nabbed her and took her back to Georgia, but she was kidnapped by her mother. Lane and her father appeared in court, and six weeks later, she was back in New York. Lane did not speak to her mother for the next three years, but they eventually reconciled.

Personal life

When promoting The Cotton Club in 1984, Lane met actor Christopher Lambert in Paris. They had a brief romance but then broke up. They appeared in Rome two years ago to make a film titled Priceless Beauty, and then in two weeks they became a couple again. Lane and Lambert married in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in October 1988. Eleanor Jasmine Lambert and her mother have a daughter Eleanor Jasmine Lambert. In March 1994, the couple married.

In July 2003, Lane became engaged to actor Josh Brolin, and the two were married on August 15, 2004. She called police after an altercation with him, and she was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of domestic battery on December 20 of this year. Lane denied to press charges, however, and the couple's spokesperson described the situation as a "misunderstanding." In February 2013, Lane and Brolin filed for divorce. On December 2, 2013, their divorce was finalized.

Lane is also active in numerous charities, including Heifer International, which focuses on world hunger, and Artists for Peace and Justice, a Hollywood group that promotes Haiti relief. However, she prefers not to draw attention to her humanitarian causes: "I give with my heart some days." I give financially occasionally, but there's something about [assisting others] that I should not reveal, so perhaps it should be anonymous. I don't want it to be a boastful thing."

Lane was prominent in the film Half the Sky, based on the book Half the Sky: Turning Oppression Into Opportunity for Women Worldwide. Lane and several other A-list actresses/celebrities appeared on the documentary in Africa and other places where women are oppressed. Lane has been an ambassador for this sort of work and charitable causes in general.

Lane was honoured at the Montage Beverly Hills on August 22, 2014, for her work with Heifer International at its third annual Beyond Hunger: A Place at the Table gala. Lane says that working with Heifer International has influenced her life and nurtured the closeness she has with her daughter.

Career

Lane's grandmother, Eleanor Scott, was a Pentecostal preacher of the Apostolic faith, and her son's sermons were inspired theatrically by her grandmother's demonstrative quality. Lane began acting at the age of six at the La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club in New York, where she appeared in a production of Medea. Lane appeared in Joseph Papp's production of The Cherry Orchard with Meryl Stapp and Irene Worth as 12 years old. Lane had been enrolled in a new Hunter College High School Accelerator program at the time, but her grades suffered as a result of her hectic schedule. Lane deferred her role in Runaways on Broadway to make her debut in A Little Romance alongside Laurence Olivier. Lane received a lot of praise from Olivier, who named her "The New Grace Kelly" at the end of the story. Lane was also included on Time's cover, a magazine that has proclaimed her one of Hollywood's "Whiz Kids."

Lane made a fruitful transition from an inexperienced actress to established roles in the early 1980s. In 1981 Lamont Johnson film Cattle Annie and Little Britches, she was portrayed as the young female outlaw Little Britches, with Amanda Plummer playing Cattle Annie in her first role as Cattle Annie. Heather (Breezy) appeared in Six Pack (1982) with Kenny Rogers. In 1982's Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains, Corinne Burns, founder of a punk rock band, and punk singers Steve Jones and Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols and Paul Simon of the Clash appeared as Corinne Burns, leader of a punk rock band, and Paul Simon from The Clash. The film has since become a cult classic.

S. E. Hinton's back-to-back adaptations of novels by S. E. Hinton, which were written and directed by Francis Ford Coppola: The Outsiders and Rumble Fish, 1983. Both films starred memorable performances from a number of young male actors who would go on to become top men in the next decade (as well as those of the so-called "Brat Pack"), including Tom Cruise, Rob Lowe, Judd Nelson, C. Thomas Howell, Emilio Estevez, Patrick Swayze, Nicolas Cage, and Matt Dillon. Lane's definition of these heavily male roles helped advance her career while still identifying her with young male actors. "The undisputed female lead of Hollywood's new rat pack," Andy Warhol said.

However, the two films that could have boosted her to fame, Streets of Fire (she turned down Splash and Risky Business for this film), and The Cotton Club (she turned down Splash and Risky Business for this film), as a result, her career was marred as a result. Lane came out of film sales and lived with her mother in Georgia after The Cotton Club. "I hadn't been near to my mother for a long time," the actress said, so we had a lot of homework to do. Because I wanted my mother back, we had to repair our marriage."

Lane returned to performing in The Big Town and Lady Beware in 1989, but Lane did not make another big name on a large audience until 1989's wildly awaited TV miniseries Lonesome Dove, which was nominated for an Emmy Award for her role. She came close to being cast as Vivian Ward in 1990's blockbuster hit Pretty Woman (which had a much darker script at the time), but she was unable to perform the role due to scheduling conflicts. Costume fittings were apparently created for Lane, before the job was handed over to Julia Roberts. She was given raves for her role in the independent film My New Gun, which was well received at the Cannes Film Festival. She went on to appear in Sir Richard Attenborough's big-budget biopic of Charles Chaplin, 1992's Chaplin, as actress Paulette Goddard. Lane will appear in ten films over the next seven years, including Jack and Judge Dredd. Lane wasn't until 1999 that she received more esteem for her role in A Walk on the Moon. Liev Scheniber, Viggo Mortensen, and Anna Paquin appear in the film. "Lane, who spent years in a post-young-career limbo, is meltingly helpful," one reviewer said. "This potentially sexual sexuality in no way self-conscious or opportunistic," Lane's director, Tony Goldwyn, described her film as having "this potentially infectious sexuality that is neither self-conscious or opportunistic." Lane received the Best Female Lead award from the Independent Spirit Awards. She was interested in making a film about actress Jean Seberg, in which she would play Seberg at this moment.

Lane appeared in The Perfect Storm as Mark Wahlberg's love interest. She appeared in Unfaithful, a French film that was directed by Adrian Lyne and adapted from The Unfaithful Wife in 2002. Lane played a housewife who became embroiled in a mystery book dealer. Several sex scenes were shot in the film, and Lane's repeated takes for these scenes were extremely demanding, particularly for Lane, who had to be physically and mentally fit for the duration. Unfaithful received mainly mixed feedback, though Lane received acclaim for her performance. She has also been nominated for Best Actress National Society of Film Critics Award and the New York Film Critics Circle Award, in addition to winning the Best Actress National Society of Film Critics Award and the Best Actress Academy Award. In the most recent appearance of her career, Entertainment Weekly columnist Owen Gleiberman said that "Lane is a revelation." The movie's true story is "lust, passion, demise, and guilt on her face." Lane appeared in Under the Tuscan Sun, Frances Mayes' best-selling book for which Lane received a second Best Actress Golden Globe award for his second time. Lead roles in Fierce People, Must Love Dogs, and Hollywoodland followed.

Lane reunited with Richard Gere in 2008 for the romantic drama Nights in Rodanthe. It's the third film Gere and Lane filmed together, and it's based on Nicholas Sparks' book of the same name. In the same year, Lane appeared in Jumper and Untraceable. Mickey Rourke appeared in Killshot, which was then limited theatrical release before being released on DVD in 2009. When promoting Nights in Rodanthe, she expressed disappointment with being typecast and claimed she was "gunning for something that isn't so sympathetic." I need to be a bitch and I need to be in a comedy. I've chosen. "Miss Nice Guy" has no longer exists. If she is unable to get these types of roles, Lane had even considered quitting acting and spending more time with her family. "I can't do anything official," she said in an interview. My representatives would not allow me. I don't think there's anything else coming out between you and me. Despite Lane's qualms with being typecast, Lane moved on to Secretariat (2010), a Disney film about the friendship between the 1973 Triple Crown-winning racehorse and his owner, Penny Chenery, who was portrayed by Lane.

Lane appeared in Cinema Verite (2011), an HBO film about the making of the first reality television show An American Family. Lane received Emmy, Screen Actors Guild, Satellite, and Golden Globe awards for her portrayal of Pat Loud. Lane was featured in the PBS documentary Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunities for Women Around the World (produced by Show of Force and Fugitive Films), which showcased women and girls living under extremely challenging conditions and bravely fighting to oppose them.

Lane starred in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, playing Martha Kent after the success of Cinema Verite. "We're delighted to have Diane in the role because she will capture the wisdom and wonder of a woman whose son has powers that surpass her imagination," Snyder said of her casting. Lane resurfaced in her role as Martha Kent in Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and Justice League (2017).

Lane was scheduled to star Hillary Clinton in an NBC miniseries named "Megabyte," and then continue on to the Monica Lewinsky morning after. Intense media backlash led NBC to cancel the show. Lane appeared in Every Secret Thing (alongside Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Banks), appeared in the Pixar animated film Inside Out, and co-starred in the biopic Trumbo (opposite Bryan Cranston and Helen Mirren) in 2015, which received a Screen Actor Guild award for Best Ensemble Cast. Lane appeared in two other films in 2017: Eleanor Coppola's Paris Can Wait and Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House.

Lane returned to her theater roots and headlined a performance of the David Cromer directed Sweet Bird of Youth (by Tennessee Williams) at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago in 2012. Lane played Princess Kosmonopolis, a dying Hollywood actress, opposite Finn Wittrock, who played Chance. This was the first time she had attended a stage performance since 1989, when she starred Olivia in William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Lane returned to theatre in the winter of 2015, starring Tony Shalhoub in Bathsheba Doran's Off-Broadway original production The Mysteries of Love and Sex. Lane appeared in a play in which she appeared on Broadway for the first time in 1966: Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard (1977). Though Lane appeared in Broadway's 1977 revival of the play as a child peasant (with no lines), this time she was playing Madame Lyubov Andreyevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna Ranevna

Lane appeared in the Amazon original miniseries The Romanoffs, which premiered in October, and Annette Shepherd in Netflix's last season of Netflix's hit series House of Cards, which was released on Netflix's streaming network on November 2. Lane, who has mainly worked in film throughout her career, has "mark[ed] rare television appearances [fore]" on her.

In 2019, she played one of Matthew McConaughey's love affairs in the thriller Serenity. In addition to acting in the series based on the post-apocalyptic science fiction comic book series Y: The Last Man, she will appear in an untitled Reed Morano-directed film with Jeff Bridges (whom she previously worked with in Wild Bill). In the 2020 thriller Let Him Go, Lane co-starred with Kevin Costner.
