Academy Award®-nominated actress AMY ADAMS has built an impressive list of credits in a remarkably short period of time, challenging herself with each new role. Adams most recently starred in Phil Morrison’s Junebug. This role earned her nominations for an Academy Award® and a SAG Award. She also won an Independent Spirit Award, Broadcast Film Critics Association Award, National Society of Film Critics Award, a San Francisco Film Critics Circle Award, as well as the Breakthrough Gotham Award. Adams also won the Special Jury Prize for Acting at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival for her role as the pregnant, childlike Ashley, who is awestruck by the arrival of her glamorous sister-in-law. Adams lent her voice to the live-action/CGI film Underdog, opposite Jason Lee and Peter Dinklage and directed by Frederik Du Chau, and starred with Will Ferrell in Columbia Pictures’ Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.
This comedy about the NASCAR world, directed by Adam McKay and co-written by Ferrell and McKay, was a box-office hit and critical favorite. Adams will next be seen in Kevin Lima’s upcoming Enchanted, starring opposite James Marsden, Idina Menzel, Patrick Dempsey and Susan Sarandon. Enchanted is a romantic fable that will mix live action with CG animation for Disney. She will also star with her Charlie Wilson’s War fellow actor, Emily Blunt, in the comedy Sunshine Cleaning. Adam’s other film credits include Clare Kilner’s The Wedding Date, with Debra Messing and Dermot Mulroney; Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can; Reginald Hudlin’s Serving Sara; Anthony Abrams’ Pumpkin; Drop Dead Gorgeous; and Psycho Beach Party. Adams recently guest-starred on several television series, including The Office and The West Wing.
