Anna Faris and Stonette of the Year

Anna Kay Faris (born November 29, 1976) is an American actress, most well known for her leading role of Cindy Campbell in the Scary Movie films.

When Anna Faris’ college roommate first saw Faris in her breakthrough role in “Scary Movie,” the ex-roomie called the actress in surprise and told her “That’s so weird that you were cast, because you are not funny.” Hollywood has continually disagreed with that assessment, casting Faris in several projects where her comedic skills subtle or, if Faris is to be believed, even unintentional–were allowed to shine.

Difficult to recognize in her natural blonde state following her turn as a raven-haired Neve Campbell knockoff in Scary Movie (2000), Anna Faris made her professional acting debut at the tender age of nine at Washington’s Seattle Repertory Theater. Refining her skills in improvisational theater.

She’s best known for his roles in Scary Movie (2000), Scary Movie 2 (2001), The Hot Chick (2002), Scary Movie 3 (2003), May (2003), Lost in Translation (2003), and Scary Movie 4 (2006).

Her first significant film role was in the independent production Lovers Lane (1999). Her breakout role was the horror film parody Scary Movie (2000). The 5′5″ Faris is a natural light brunette (as seen in the film May), but usually keeps her hair dyed blonde. She dyed her hair black for the filming of Scary Movie so that her character more closely resembled Neve Campbell, who played the equivalent character in Scream, one of the films that Scary Movie was parodying.

Faris gained further popularity after becoming recurring character Erica in the final season of the popular American sitcom Friends. She also was in the critically acclaimed film Lost in Translation—in which she plays an actress promoting the fictional action movie Midnight Velocity.

Faris was in the film Waiting… with Ryan Reynolds and Justin Long. In 2005, she appeared again with Reynolds in Just Friends, playing a supporting role as a pop-diva singer named Samantha James. While the film received mixed reviews, it gained a small cult-following, and many fans praised Faris for her performance. Faris’s role as the motor mouthed LaShawn Malone in Brokeback Mountain (2005) brought her to the attention of a much wider audience, her character being parodied by fans of the movie on the internet. Faris starred with Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson in the feature film My Super Ex-Girlfriend, released on July 21, 2006. She will soon begin production on the comedy Kids in America, playing Topher Grace’s twin sister, in addition to her upcoming films Mama’s Boy with Jeff Daniels and Diane Keaton, and Smiley Face with Adam Brody and John Cho. She is also currently producing I Know What Boys Like, a film with Happy Madison Productions about a retired Playboy bunny. In the summer 2007 season of HBO’s Entourage, Faris guest-starred as herself.

In 2004, Faris married actor Ben Indra, whom she met while working on Lovers Lane and whom she had dated since 1999. She filed for divorce on April 3, 2007, citing irreconcilable differences. Anna Faris won the “Stonette of the Year” award at High Times Magazine’s Stony Awards in Los Angeles on October 13, 2007.
