Julia Ormond made her acting debut on British TV in the 1989 serial movie, Traffik, involving the notorious heroin underground business from the Far East to the cities of Europe. The English actress entered celebrity status when she played in a string of notable 90s films like Legends of the Fall, and First Knight. She also received an Emmy award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or a Movie for her performance in the HBO film, Temple Grandin, back in 2010.
Following her portrayal of the main character in the film, Sabrina, there were a lot of movie pundits who believed that Julia Ormond was going to take the big screens by storm. As it turned out though, Ormond took minor roles and was always cast as the “second girl” in every movie after Sabrina.
Kellan Lutz
The American actor and model got his Hollywood debut in the film, Stick It, in 2006 and is best known for his portrayal of Emmett Cullen in The Twilight Saga film series, starting from 2008 and continuing into 2012. Since then, he has played notable roles, including Poseidon in the 2011 film Immortals, Tarzan in the 2013 animated film Tarzan, John Smilee in The Expendables 3, and Hercules in The Legend of Hercules.
Kellan Lutz has the body of a God, which is why he was the star of The Legend of Hercules, Tarzan and the powerful Poseidon in Immortals. Aside from showing off his stunning muscular physique though, Lutz hasn’t really done much to impress pundits and moviegoers. He probably needs to excel in a role where he isn’t topless, perhaps in a classy suit.
Kate Bosworth
After playing small roles in the films, The Horse Whisperer and Remember the Titans, Kate Bosworth got the breakthrough role in the box-office hit, Blue Crush. The movie garnered positive reviews from critics and audiences alike and raked in a total of $40 million at the United States box office. Following her success in Blue Crush, Bosworth accepted the lead role of the low-budget film, Wonderland, in 2003, alongside Val Kilmer.
In 2006, she was poised for another prominent role in a promising movie, Superman Returns. The American actress played the iconic, tough-as-nails reporter, Lois Lane, in the superhero movie, but after the film failed to meet expectations, Bosworth’s career took a step back. Today, Kate Bosworth still performs in films and movies but has never since had the chance to play in a high-profile project.
Jami Gertz
Jami Gertz was a child actress in a single episode of Diff'rent Strokes, alongside Andrew Dice Clay. The American actress also made recurring appearances on The Facts of Life, as Blair's friend and schoolmate, Boots St. Clair. Her Hollywood debut came in 1981, in the romantic movie, Endless Love, which was immediately followed by a co-starring role in the TV series, Square Pegs.
The actress garnered critical acclaim when she took a starring role in the 1987 film, Less Than Zero, as the friend of a hopeless substance addict portrayed by Robert Downey, Jr. She was also the star (literally) in the 1987 movie, The Lost Boys, playing the character, Star, the "half-vampire" girlfriend. Following her breakout roles in Less Than Zero and The Lost Boys though, she has been featured mostly as a guest and supporting actress on TV.
Ione Skye
Known for her star performance in Cameron Crowe's Say Anything, in 1989, the British-born American actress continued to secure roles throughout the 90s and into the early 2000s, including prominent roles in Wayne's World in 1992 and One Night Stand in 1997. Outside the world of acting, she is also an avid painter and an accomplished author, having penned a number of children’s books. In 2006, she was ranked #84 on VH1’s list of the 100 Greatest Teen Stars.
Ione Skye will always be remembered as the girl in the movie Say Anything, whom John Cusack lambasted with the words “In Your Eyes” from a boombox. Following that legendary performance, however, the British-American actress, for some reason, was never able to reach her potential and elevate her status as a Hollywood superstar.
