Elena Anaya (born July 17, 1975) is a Spanish actress whose career dates back to 1995.
Anaya was born in Palencia, Spain, and is the youngest of 5 children. She first received international attention in 2001 for her role in the sexually explicit drama Lucía y el sexo (Sex and Lucía) and also appeared in Pedro Almodóvar's Hable con ella (Talk to Her).
Her best-known Hollywood film role was as a vampire in 2004's Van Helsing, playing Dracula's bride, Aleera. She is also featured in Justin Timberlake's music video for his 2006 single, SexyBack.
In 2004, she was named as one of European films' Shooting Stars by European Film Promotion.
After some "quiet" years playing supporting roles in such international films as Savage Grace and Cairo Time, she roared back into prominence with the co-lead in the provocative Room in Rome in 2010 and then a return to Almodovar in The Skin I Live In in 2011.
