Green was quiet in school, and developed an interest in Egyptology when she visited the Louvre at age seven.
At age 14, after seeing Isabelle Adjani in The Story of Adele H., Green decided to become an actress. Her mother initially feared that an acting career would be too much for her sensitive daughter, but later came to support young Eva's ambitions.
