Emma Stone

Emma Stone Introduction

One of Hollywood’s more recent comedic ingénues, Stone has quickly assembled an impressive resume of feature films and television appearances, including the role of Violet Trimble in Drive, and, most notably, the role of “Jules,” Jonah Hill’s love interest in Superbad. Fortunately for Stone, the attractiveness of her future on-screen love interests can only go up.

Emma Stone Life Story

A fresh face to TV and Movie watchers, Emma Stone is no newbie to the entertainment industry. Growing up outside Phoenix, Stone was a member of the Valley Youth Theatre, where she appeared in her first stage production, The Wind in the Willows, at the age of 11. The play’s commentary on class dynamics in turn of the century British society led Emma to seek out more cerebral roles, which she found in stage productions of Schoolhouse Rock Live! and The Wiz.

When she was a freshman in high school, Emma presented a Powerpoint to her parents to convince them to let her move to California for an acting career. Powerpoint’s patented persuasion technology, along with the prospects of living in her wealthy actress daughter’s Malibu pool house, convinced Emma’s mother to move with her to Los Angeles. As of 2007, Stone lives in Los Angeles with roommate and Superbad co-star Martha MacIsaac. It is imagined by many adolescent males that they frequently fight with pillows.

Stone launched a career in television after winning the role of Laurie Partridge on In Search of the New Partridge Family, a VH-1competition reality show. She then parlayed that train wreck into roles on Malcolm in the Middle, Lucky Louie, and Medium, the show about the woman that’s not Jennifer Love Hewitt who talks to dead people.

She made her feature film debut in the ribald teen comedy Superbad, and will appear in the 2008 films The Rocker, and I Know What Boys Like, a.k.a. House Bunny, the story of a Playboy playmate who gets kicked out of the Playboy mansion and moves into a college sorority. It was written by the scribes of Legally Blonde, who had hoped to move into work that was “less grating, and with more potential for nudity.”
