From Legally Blonde to The White Lotus, this is Collider's ranking of Jennifer Coolidge's best movies and shows ever.
The Big Picture COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Few modern actors are as recognizable as the incredible Jennifer Coolidge. The actress has been working since the 90s, playing numerous supporting roles across a wide and colorful variety of films and genres. Known for her distinctive speech and comedic timing, Coolidge is a gifted and respected comedian who often steals every scene she's in.
9 'A Cinderella Story In the early 2000s, few young stars were more famous or beloved as Hilary Duff. The actress received one of her first big-screen starring roles with 2004's A Cinderella Story, a modernized version of the classic tale. Coolidge co-stars as Fiona, the protagonist's wicked stepmother.
7 'American Pie The 1999 coming-of-age sex comedy American Pie was a landmark moment for teen movies. The plot follows a group of five high school seniors making a pact to lose their virginity before their upcoming high school graduation. American Pie stars a who's who of young performers who would become well-known in Hollywood, including Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Sean William Scott, and Mena Suvari.
It's hard to stand out among such a large cast of gifted comedians. However, Coolidge is hilarious as Cole; adopting a bizarre and instantly memorable accent and embracing the character's vapidness, Coolidge is one of the film's secret weapons. A Mighty Wind is far from one of the best mockumentaries — it's not even Guest's best effort. However, it remains a chaotic and funny showcase for its large ensemble of underrated performers.
4 'Swan Song' The 2021 drama Swan Song is among the most underrated films of the past five years. Udo Kier stars as Pat Pitsenbarger, "the Liberace of Sandusky," a retired hairdresser who takes a long walk to style his former client for her funeral. Coolidge plays Dee Dee, Pat's former apprentice who turned her back on him and drove him out of business.
2 'Best in Show Christopher Guest's magnum opus remains the 2000 mockumentary Best in Show. Starring a parade of his usual suspects, the film follows five competitors at a prestigious dog show as they prepare, compete, and process their performance at the event. Coolidge plays Sherri Ann Cabot, a wealthy man's trophy wife competing on the show with her poodle, Butch. Joining Sherri Ann is her lesbian lover and Butch's trainer, Christy Cummings.
