The Future of Hollywood Leading Men and Women

Blake Lively

(23 years old; this generation’s Uma Thurman)

She is one of the most exciting young actresses. Traveling Pants was her huge breakout movie, essentially her first acting job. She was tremendous, like the rest of the cast. She has since starred in The Town (she deserves a nomination), Accepted, New York, I Love You, and the series Gossip Girl. She is already becoming one of the biggest young stars, which is probably mostly due to her classic 1930’s movie star beauty. This is why I compared her to Uma Thurman, my all time favorite actress. Lively’s performance in The Town reminded me of early Thurman work, and they actually look alike. Lively will be one of the best and most famous Hollywood actresses in no time.
