9 Blake Lively Roles You Totally Forgot About
1/9When you think of Blake Lively, you probably imagine Serena van der Woodsen stealing hearts all over the Upper East Side on Gossip Girl or her time as soccer-playing, fun-loving Bridget in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. But our girl has done so much more than that in her career.
In addition to helping a superhero in Green Lantern — aka her real-life husband, Ryan Reynolds — and defying time in The Age of Adaline, she’s been on the run with Chloë Grace Moretz in Hick, had a dark Friday Night Lights/Gossip Girl crossover in Savages, and so much more. Check out nine roles you (probably) totally forgot about.
2/9Simon Says
In spite of its name, this is not a kids’ movie. Blake played Jenny in the horror movie about campers who get murdered by two freaks, Simon and Stanley. Eek.
3/9Accepted
Blake was Justin Long’s leading lady in the hilarious movie about putting together a fake college. Her funny scenes with him and Jonah Hill’s character prove why she needs to get back into comedy, ASAP.
4/9Elvis and Anabelle
Blake’s character, Anabelle, dies tragically during a beauty pageant, but she’s brought back to life by Elvis (played by the charming Max Minghella from The Social Network) in this twist on a rom-com.
5/9New York, I Love You
Even though our girl was only in one vignette — think New Year’s Eve and Valentine’s Day-style short films — she made an impact as the ex-girlfriend in a segment with Anton Yelchin and Olivia Thirlby.
6/9The Private Lives of Pippa Lee
If you watch House of Cards, your mind’s about to be blown. Blake plays a young version of Robin Wright (aka Claire Underwood) in the movie, and now they need to act together again immediately.
7/9The Town
You’ll never look at Blake the same again after you see her portrayal of Krista, Ben Affleck’s character’s hot-mess ex in The Town.
8/9Hick
What happens when Chloe Grace Moretz and Blake get together? They hitchhike to Vegas with Eddie Redmayne. #Squadgoals. Well, not exactly — things get pretty messed up along the way, but the cast is stellar.
9/9Savages
Things get really dark in this twisted drug cartel movie co-starring Friday Night Lights’ Taylor Kitsch (Riggins forever) and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, so you may watch part of it through the cracks between your fingers over your eyes.
