Bruckner's mother is Russian and her father is Hungarian. She speaks both languages fluently. Her paternal grandfather was German. She has three siblings, two sisters and a brother.
[on undertaking the title role in 'Anna Nicole'] I didn't just want to show people the 'hot mess' side of Anna. And yet there are plenty of 'hot mess' moments in the movie, trust me. We wanted to make this character human, because a lot of the time people saw her as someone who wasn't a real person. The darker moments for me actually were easier to play. The more difficult moments for me were the larger- than-life kind of goofy Anna because - as Agnes - I'm so not like that.
