27-year old actress; joining the Hugh Laurie-led "House, MD" in 2007, she scored her breakout film role in last year's "Tron: Legacy." This summer, she's got two major films coming out back-to-back, the space western mashup, "Cowboys & Aliens," and the raunchfest semi-romcom, "The Change-Up."
She also takes a pretty picture, which is both her blessing and curse.
Wilde is featured in a long new profile in The New York Times, tracing her first moments in Hollywood to the cusp of superstardom that she's on now. Working at a casting office, she got noticed herself, which put her on both the modeling and acting track nearly straight away.
She even suggested a raunchy scene in "Friends With Benefits" in which she gets a tattoo in a very intimate place, and did a lot of her own stunts in "Cowboys & Aliens." She clearly had a good relationship with the latter film's director, Jon Favreau.
