It’s not the kind of role you usually associate with – she’s America’s Sweetheart, the adorable romcom queen with the megawatt smile and infectious laugh.
She knocked Richard Gere’s socks off in Pretty Woman, she slayed Hugh Grant in Notting Hill, she fled from the altar in Runaway Bride.
But she’s also showed she can turn up the serious when she needs to – as the crusading Erin Brockovich, as a young law student in The Pelican Brief, as the abused wife in Sleeping with the Enemy.
