Emma Stone is an American actress. She aspired to an acting career from an early age,[1] and had her first role in a stage production of The Wind in the Willows (2000) at the age of 11.[2] She later featured in sixteen plays in a regional theater in Arizona, including The Princess and the Pea, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.[3] Stone made her television debut in the reality show The New Partridge Family (2005) that only produced an unsold pilot.[4] Following a series of minuscule television roles in Medium, Malcolm in the Middle and Lucky Louie, she made her film debut in the comedy Superbad (2007). The last of these earned Stone a Young Hollywood Award for Exciting New Face.[5]

Stone appeared as a ghost in Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (2009), a modest commercial success.[6] Her next role was in the horror comedy Zombieland—another commercial success—which was that of a zombie apocalypse survivor.[7] For the role, she was nominated for a Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie Actress - Comedy.[8] Stone had her breakthrough in 2010 with her first leading role in the Will Gluck-directed teen comedy Easy A,[9] in which she played a high school student perceived to be sexually promiscuous. The role earned her nominations for a BAFTA Rising Star Award and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.[10][11] Later that year, she hosted an episode of NBC's late-night sketch comedy Saturday Night Live.[lower-alpha 1] In 2011, she starred in the romantic comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love and the period drama The Help, which were both commercial successes.[12] For the former, she garnered a Teen Choice Award for Choice Movie Actress – Comedy.[13]

Stone's success continued with her portrayal of Gwen Stacy in the superhero film The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), which became Stone's most widely seen film with a worldwide revenue of $757.9 million.[12] She had a supporting role in the crime thriller Gangster Squad, and reprised the role of Stacy in the sequel The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Critical success followed with the role of a recovering drug addict in Alejandro González Iñárritu's black comedy-drama Birdman (2014). For her performance, she was nominated for an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, and a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress.[14][15][16] Later that year, she made her Broadway debut in a revival of the musical Cabaret (2014–2015). In 2016, Stone won the Volpi Cup for Best Actress for playing an aspiring actress in the musical La La Land.[17] Stone will return to television in 2017 for the Netflix dark comedy Maniac. She will also serve as an executive producer for the show.
