While many people might view the Twilight franchise as Kendrick’s “breakout” or first time they said, “hey, who’s that?”, the star had already had the Tony nomination to her name and was starting to garner respect from people in the industry. Writer-director Jeffrey Blitz’s debate team dramedy Rocket Science proved to be another major moment early ...
The Tony nominee added “Oscar nominee” to her resume with Jason Reitman’s 2009 romance dramedy Up in the Air opposite George Clooney. Based on Walter Kirn’s novel, this film follows Clooney’s commitment-phobic Ryan Bingham, a human resources consultant who spends most days of his life in a plane up in the air traveling to gently fire people from th...
Joseph Gordon-Levitt leads the charming film 50/50about Adam, a seemingly-healthy man in his 20s, who is blindsided by a cancer diagnosis that forces him to reevaluate his life. In between his chemotherapy treatments, he reluctantly attends therapy sessions with newbie therapist Katherine (Kendrick), who does her best to bury her lack of confidence...
Aca-scuse me? If you still weren’t familiar with Anna Kendrick at this point in her career, then she definitely became a household name with the 2012 music-infused college comedy Pitch Perfect. Kendrick shed any bit of her former characters to play Beca Mitchell, a chill, somewhat introverted and very reluctant college freshman who would much rathe...
Kendrick follows up her sleeper mega-musical hit with Joe Swanberg’s independent film Drinking Buddies. This slice-of-life dramedy follows best friends and brewery workers Luke (Jake Johnson) and Kate (Olivia Wilde) whose flirtatious relationship is constantly bordering on more-than-friends territory. The only problem is that they are both in their...
Pitch Perfect might have allowed Kendrick to show off her impressive singing voice, but The Last Five Years enabled her to bring her extensive theater background to the big screen. Based on Jason Robert Brown’s popular off-Broadway musical of the same name, this non-linear musical follows the dramatic ups and downs of Cathy (Kendrick) and Jamie’s (...
The melding of movies and stage musicals continues with Anna Kendrick playing iconic Disney princess Cinderella in director Rob Marshall’s star-studded Into the Woods. Casting Kendrick as Cinderella in the film adaptation of Broadway legend Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s musical very much seems like a no-brainer. But for Kendrick, it was actua...
If you were to look through Kendrick’s credits, you wouldn’t notice many crime thrillers. While her acting range is on full display with each project, we rarely see her in as tense of an environment as the one in The Accountant. She stars alongside Ben Affleck, J.K. Simmons, and Jon Bernthalas Dana Cummings, a fellow accountant sent to work with Af...
If you’re a fan of Kendrick’s talk show appearances (you should be) then you are familiar with the sort of bright energy and attention to detail she brings to each conversation. While she might not be the—as she describes her— “unhinged happy character” that we see in the movie, Kendrick’s cheerful demeanor shines through Poppy, the excitable pink ...
This movie is a trip. Everything you thought you knew about tone and genre just flies out the window. Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively team up for Paul Feig’s enigmatic film A Simple Favor, which follows parenting vlogger Stephanie (Kendrick) who meets Emily (Lively), a high status, upper-class mother at her son’s elementary school. The two mothers f...
