Hollywood’s Top Up and Coming Actresses

4. Amanda Seyfried

First known as Lilly Kane on the cult hit TV series Veronica Mars, she currently stars in the multiple wives drama Big Love on HBO. Still only 22, Seyfried has branched out into movies and seems destined for bigger and bigger projects. She starting modeling at age 11 and first appeared on TV at age 15, so it’s been a long road to get where she is.

First Major Hollywood Role: Mean Girls, as Karen Smith, one of the three “plastics” (the A-list girl clique) along with Rachel McAdams and Lacey Chabert in the teen comedy.

Movie You Shouldn’t Miss: Mamma Mia!, the ABBA musical adapted to the big screen where Seyfried plays Sophie Sheridan. But don’t overlook Alpha Dog, a surprisingly compelling film based on the true story of a bunch of wanna-be gangsters.

Upcoming Feature: Jennifer’s Body, screenwriter Diablo Cody’s follow-up to her hit indy Juno, she co-stars with Megan Fox in this dark comedy.

3. Mila Kunis

Best known for her roles on television, including providing the voice of Meg Griffin on the Family Guy, this 25 years old Ukraine-born actress has made the transition over to feature films. She first appeared at a young age in print-ads, catalog, and TV commercials for children’s product, before debuting on television in an episode of the popular soap opera Days of our Lives. Now that she’s conquered television, movies are her next medium of choice.

First Major Hollywood Role: That ’70s Show, where she played Jackie Burkhart in the long running Fox comedy series. For movies in particular, Forgetting Sarah Marshall as Rachel Jansen, the lovely hotel clerk.

Movie You Shouldn’t Miss: Max Payne, in her role as Mona Sax. It basically win by default. Forgetting Sarah Marshall is better, but its been mentioned and I don’t want to reuse it. Max Payne is better than the forgettable direct to video American Psycho sequel and her other assorted smaller roles.

Upcoming Feature: Extract, from Mike Judge the creator of Office Space, she stars along side Ben Affleck and Jason Bateman in the comedy.

  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.
