Heres a quick bio of Oded Fehr. The huge box-office success of “The Mummy Returns” propelled Oded Fehr (who played Ardeth Bay) into mainstream Hollywood. This 30-year-old actor came back for a lead role in “The Mummy Returns” sequel which grossed $70.1 million in its first weekend. “The Mummy” was Fehr’s first screen role. His performance encouraged People magazine to name him 1999’s “Sexiest Import,” and left an impression on audiences and critics alike. Even director Steven Sommers became such a fan that instead of killing off Ardeth Bay in the first film -- as originally planned -- Sommers let him live and brought him back for a more prominent role in the sequel. In December 1999, Fehr was seen in Disney’s pop hit “Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo,” in which he played an Italian ladies man, and starred alongside Rob Schneider. Fehr was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, to European parents. He was educated there until he joined the Israeli Navy at 18 for three years. When his national service duty was over, he went to Europe to pursue a business career. There, he first discovered acting, and subsequently trained at the famed Bristol Old Vic Theatre School in England. Fehr went on to appear as Don Juan in a production of “Don Juan Comes Back from War” at the Courtyard Theatre in London. He has also appeared in both “The Knock” and “Killer Net” on British television, and appeared in the miniseries “Cleopatra” and “Arabian Nights.” In his spare time, Fehr enjoys attending the theater, literature, and riding horses. He and his wife, Rhonda, reside in Los Angeles. His birthday is November 23.
