Amy Adams is an American actress who made her film debut in the 1999 black comedy Drop Dead Gorgeous.[1] She went on to guest star in a variety of television shows, including That '70s Show, Charmed, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and also appeared in minor film roles. In 2002, she had her first major role in Steven Spielberg's biographical crime drama Catch Me If You Can. However, the film did not launch her career as Spielberg had hoped.[2] Three years later, she made the breakthrough with the comedy-drama Junebug (2005),[3][4] for which she received her first Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress nomination.[5] Adams also appeared in the romantic comedy The Wedding Date that same year. In 2007, she starred in the Disney romantic comedy Enchanted, for which she won the Saturn Award for Best Actress, and was nominated for her first Golden Globe Award for Best Actress (Comedy or Musical).[6][7]
In 2008, Adams played a nun in the drama Doubt, opposite Philip Seymour Hoffman and Meryl Streep, for which she garnered her second Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress and won the Spotlight Award from the Palm Springs International Film Festival.[8][9] She then starred in the comedy-drama Julie & Julia (2009) opposite Streep, and played Amelia Earhart in the adventure comedy sequel Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009). The following year, she featured in David O. Russell's biographical sports drama The Fighter (2010), which garnered her a third nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.[10] She next starred in the musical comedy The Muppets (2011), and in 2012, she appeared in Paul Thomas Anderson's drama The Master, opposite Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix. Her performance in the latter earned her a fourth Best Supporting Actress nomination at the Academy Awards.[11]
Adams had three film releases in 2013. She played Lois Lane in the superhero film Man of Steel (2013), reunited with Phoenix on the science fiction comedy-drama Her (2013), and starred as a con woman in Russell's crime comedy-drama American Hustle (2013). For the last of these, she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress (Comedy or Musical) and received her first Academy Award for Best Actress nomination.[12][13] In 2014, Adams starred in the drama Lullaby, and portrayed American artist Margaret Keane in Tim Burton's comedy-drama Big Eyes. For the latter, she garnered a second consecutive Golden Globe Award for Best Actress (Comedy or Musical), becoming the fourth actress to achieve this feat.[a][14] In 2016, she reprised her role of Lane in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, her highest-grossing release.[15]
