Early life

Goursaud was born in Pinneberg district[1] north of Hamburg in Schleswig-Holstein, to a German mother and a French father.[2] She grew up in Halstenbek, where she and her sister would put on plays in their yard. She took drama classes at the TASK drama school.[3]

Career

In 2012, Goursaud had a modeling gig with the beauty brand Bebe Young Care.[4] That same year, she made her television debut with guest appearances in episodes of Die Pfefferkörner (The Peppercorns) on KiKa and Neues aus Büttenwarder (News from Büttenwarder) on NDR Fernsehen.

Goursaud made her English-language debut in 2015 when she played the recurring character Emma in season 2 of the Australian children's series In Your Dreams on 7two. The following year, she made her feature film debut in Erwartungen. In 2017, she joined the cast of the RTL school-set comedy-drama Der Lehrer for its fifth season as Bibi, a role she would play until its seventh season in 2019.[5] She also appeared in the web series Wishlist, the television film Zaun an Zaun,[6] and the parody film Bullyparade: The Movie.[7]

While living in Paris to hone in her French-language skills, Goursaud was scouted for the 2018 Clint Eastwood film The 15:17 to Paris.[3] She played Rebecca Jungblut in the Das Erste series Hubert ohne Staller.

In 2020, Goursaud began portraying the real-life Cheruscan noblewoman Thusnelda in the Netflix historical war drama Barbarians.[8][9] She then starred as Jazz in Para – We Are King on Warner TV in 2021[10] and Jenny Krause in the British thriller The Chemistry of Death, an adaptation of the novel by Simon Beckett for Paramount+ in 2023.[11]
