She also won a BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance in “Desperately Seeking Susan.” During the same decade, she appeared in films such as “After Hours” and “The Big Blue.”

Rosanna Arquette’s Acting Career

After minor roles in films like “More American Graffiti” and “S.O.B” in the late 70s and early 80s, Rosanna Arquette broke through with 1982’s “The Executioner’s Song,” resulting in an Emmy Award nomination. However, she was dissatisfied with her nude scene.

Arquette’s next few years involved being approached with several roles that also involved nude scenes, adding to her discontent and discomfort. Her first starring role was in the well-received limited release film “Baby It’s You” in 1983.

She gained greater fame after appearing alongside Madonna in “Desperately Seeking Susan,” winning a BAFTA Award. Despite this success, her next films resulted in disillusionment with Hollywood.

Arquette worked in Europe for some time before returning to Hollywood for movies such as “Black Rainbow” and “The Linguini Incident.” She appeared on the cover of “Playboy” magazine in 1990 without her consent.

In the 90s, she became known for roles in movies like “Pulp Fiction,” “Nowhere to Run,” and “The Wrong Man.” She continued to work on European films and also appeared in television series like “Grey’s Anatomy” and “CSI: Cyber.”

From the 2000s onwards, Arquette continued to book roles in movies like “The Whole Nine Yards” and “Joe Dirt,” while also directing documentaries like “Searching for Debra.”

Rosanna Arquette’s Sexual Harassment Claims Against Harvey Weinstein

Arquette also alleged that Weinstein ensured she wasn’t cast in leading roles in subsequent films.

Arquette was one of the first celebrities to openly speak about Weinstein’s patterns of harassment when they were exposed in the 2010s. However, she faced a backlash on social media when she expressed her shame for having white privilege on Twitter. The trolling became so severe that the FBI recommended she make her account private.

Rosanna Arquette’s Relationships

In the 1980s, Arquette dated Steve Porcaro, the keyboardist for the band Toto. The Toto song “Rosanna” is at least partially written about her, although the primary songwriter David Paich claims that the song was based on numerous women he had dated and not necessarily directly about Arquette.

Arquette also dated Peter Gabriel, and his song “In Your Eyes” is reportedly inspired by her. She has been married several times, including to film composer James Newton Howard. In 2013, she married investment banker Todd Morgan, but it was revealed on March 09, 2022, that Todd had filed for divorce from Arquette.

In 2013, a few months before their marriage, Rosanna and Todd purchased an ocean-view home in Malibu for $6.5 million.
