Hollywood’s Top Up and Coming Actresses

6. Malin Ackerman

At 30, this Swedish-born Canadian is the oldest actress on this list. She began her career in modeling, before turning to the silver screen in recent years. But even with a late start, she’s made a fast climb up the rungs of Hollywood. She’s appeared in a few comedies and has begun to branch out to to other genres.

First Major Hollywood Role: Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, as Liane the wife of Freakshow.

Movie You Shouldn’t Miss: 27 Dresses, admittedly a female-oriented romantic comedy, she looks fantastic as Katherine Heigl’s sister Tess.

Upcoming Feature: The Watchmen, director Zack Snyder’s follow-up to his mega-hit 300, it is based on a group of costumed superheros who investigate a murder of one of their own. For a trailer, click here.

5. Kat Dennings

She’s recently appeared in a pair of comedies, The House Bunny and Nick and Nora’s Infinite Play List, and has made her mark in a number of male-oriented comedies over the last few years. The 22 year old got her start in commercials as a child, and first appeared on television in 2000 with a role on HBO’s Sex and the City. And a bonus, she has her own blog.

First Major Hollywood Role: The 40 Year Old Virgin, as the daughter of Catherine Keener’s Trish, the love interest of Steve Carrell.

Movie You Shouldn’t Miss: Charlie Bartlett, a teen dramedy where she stars as Susan Gardner: the love interest of Anton Yelchin’s Charlie Barlett and daughter of Robert Downey, Jr.’s Principal Nathan Gardner.

Upcoming Feature: Shorts, the Robert Rodriguez family film about a young boy’s discovery of a colorful, wish-granting rock.

  1. LOVE THE LIST! Not sure about your #5 though… Kat Dennings has some crazy lips. I guess her acting is pretty good.

  2. I read and the book Twilight and I loved it, not sure the movie would give it justice as always right! Also, I don’t also agree with the cast they picked to play the characters in the story as well, don’t get me wrong. They are good actor’s but they don’t quite fit the roll. I would have gone with Rachael McAdams as “Bella” and as “Edward” I would have to go with maybe Mario Lopez. This book gives quite a specific detail as to how they would look like, and I am sorry but the actor’s chosen were not exactly what I was picturing in my mind.

  3. As for the Hottest girl on this list, I definitely must go with my girl Scarlett, she is just Beautiful. Hands down she beats all the women picked here, and yes I agree with some comments out there, they left out quite a few women that could have easily made it to the list. All the women here are good looking, but if your gonna narrow it down to the top Ten, well then, lets be honest with ourselves and list what everyone can agree with.
