She was recently the subject of Nir Bergman's documentary A Stranger in Paris.
In May 2010, Elkabetz received the France Culture award at the Cannes Film Festival, a prize awarded to filmmakers for quality work and social involvement.
The judges described her as a "woman teeming with passion and erotica, who can even play the queen of Egypt."
Pascal Elbé director of Turk's Head cited his enthusiasm for casting Elkabetz.
"I chose an actress who reminds me of those great Italian stars of the postwar period, like Anna Magnani."
In 2012, they had a twin son and daughter.

This was the final film Elkabetz directed prior to her death.
Israeli film critic Uri Klein wrote: "Moviegoers can admire Ronit Elkabetz or recoil from her, or admire and recoil at the same time. Ignoring her is not an option. The mystery and the exoticism, the threat and the danger have ultimately gathered into a potent presence and cogent control."
In 2015 she was selected to be the President of the Jury for the International Critics' Week section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
