Who says that beautiful women can't be funny?
Leslie Mann has been making people laugh since before the turn of the millennium, when she appeared in the dark Jim Carrey comedy The Cable Guy, about an unhinged cable-TV installer. She met Judd Apatow, one of the movie's producers, and they married soon after.
Other movies Ms. Mann has appeared in are Knocked Up, playing Debbie, the sister of an impregnated woman, and the sequel, This Is 40, which imagines Debbie's own experience with motherhood. Both movies were made by her husband. She also had a leading role in Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring, based on real-life incidents involving teenagers in Los Angeles who burgled celebrity homes with help from the Internet. She also appeared in The Change-Up, an adult Freaky Friday involving a family man and a playboy who end up switching bodies.
Any chance that she'll do a straight high-profile drama? Oh, no, Leslie Mann is having too much fun. :-)
