After insignificant parts in _Variety Lights (1950)_ and Quo Vadis (1951), she met movie-director Carlo Ponti, some 22 years her senior, whom she later married. Perhaps he was the father figure she never experienced as a child. In 1961, she received an Academy Award for Ciociara, La (1960) ("Two Women"). This beautiful lady became one of the major sex symbol of the sixties, competing with Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot and Jane Fonda. She was a very close friend of Cary Grant. She gained wider respect with her later movies like The Cassandra Crossing (1976), Giornata particolare, Una (1977) and Prêt-à-Porter (1994). A lot of her movies were produced by her husband.

She didn't get along with Marlon Brando during the shooting of A Countess from Hong Kong (1967), especially after the day they were doing a love scene and he commented, "Did you know you have hairs up your nostrils?". She performed two duets with Peter Sellers which were major hits in the UK pop chart. 'Goodness Gracious Me' was released in 1960 and reached four and 'Bangers and Mash' made it to the top 20 in 1961. Carlo Ponti obtains a Mexican divorce from his first wife and marries Sophia by proxy while she was in Hollywood filming Houseboat (1958) - and dating co-star Cary Grant. [17 September 1957] While filming Boy on a Dolphin (1957), Sophia was required to walk in a trench in order to give audiences the impression that her diminutive co-star, Alan Ladd, was taller than she. Her sister was married to dictator Benito Mussolini's son, Romano. Suffered from stage fright and, therefore, never appeared in a theatrical production.

Soon after, she became pregnant with Sofia. Her adopted surname is a slight variation of "Toren" after the Swedish actress Märta Torén. Her mother named her after her paternal grandmother, so when Sofia's father abandoned her, her maternal grandmother began calling her 'Lella'.
