Christina Applegate News

From Christina Applegate to Mischa Barton and Robert Downey Jr., Tinseltown is alive with actors and actresses making major comebacks. Read on to find out who’s back.

Mischa Barton was everyone’s favorite teen-with-issues, Marissa Cooper, on The O.C.but after her departure from the show in 2006, it was a long lean few years of no Barton. Now, she’s back in a big way. The actress has confirmed she will be joining the cast of the rebooted reality drama The Hills, aptly titled, The Hills: New Beginnings.

As a singer, dancer, and actress, Jennifer Lopez didn’t ever really depart from the spotlight because there’s always something this multi-talent is doing, but she wasn’t booking a bunch of movie roles following 2003’s Gigli. However, all that changed when she booked the role of Ramona in one of the year’s most highly-anticipated movies, Hustlers.

Lopez stars alongside Cardi B, Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, and Lili Reinhart in the film, which is about vengeful ex-strippers who set out to con their rich clientele. Jenny from the Block has officially returned.

Disney darling Hilary Duff was everyone’s favorite star in the early ‘00s, starring as Lizzie McGuire in the TV series and movie as well as having roles in Cheaper by the Dozen and A Cinderella Story, but then she kind of vanished from our screens, with only a couple of cameo credits to her name.

Along came 2016’s Younger and with it Duff, reminding fans exactly why we were all big fans of hers in her Disney days. Remember 1999 teen comedy American Pie? It put many of the cast on the map including Natasha Lyonne, who played Jessica. But like many teen stars, transitioning a role in a teen film franchise into a long-term acting career can be tough (where is Michael Welch who played Mike in Twilight now?).

But Lyonne has done it, 20 years after American Pie was released, Lyonne is currently starring in Netflix’s hit Russian Doll — a dark take on the classic Groundhog Day time loop. The actress made her initial comeback on Orange Is the New Black in 2013.

Welcome back, Winona Ryder! Ryder was the darling of the ‘90s starring in Edward Scissorhands alongside a young Johnny Depp, Mermaids with Cher, Reality Bites and Little Women, but then there was the arrest for shoplifting in 2001 and Hollywood stopped calling.

But, thanks to Netflix’s Stranger Things Ryder has made a triumphant return. The actress plays Joyce Byers in the hit supernatural show and has been welcomed back into the Hollywood fold as no time has passed at all.

Teen Wolf Too’s Jason Bateman has had a major career comeback in both film and TV starring in so many recent Hollywood hot properties including Arrested Development, Ozark and Game Night. After era-defining TV show Beverly Hills, 90210 ended in 2000, almost the entire cast drifted into quiet obscurity.

From being the decade’s pin-ups to being barely recognized, the cast turned to other pursuits — Ian Ziering, who played Steve Sanders, even joined male dance group, the Chippendales. Luke Perry, who played Dylan McKay, was the first to return to our screens as Archie’s dad on Riverdale, only to tragically pass away in March this year.

And now the remaining main cast members, Jason Priestly (Brandon), Jennie Garth (Kelly), Ian Ziering (Steve), Gabrielle Carteris (Andrea), Brian Austin Green (David), Tori Spelling (Donna), Shannen Doherty (Brenda) are coming back by way of a 90210 reboot slated to air in August this year.

Jane Fonda was an actress well before she became the queen of ‘80s fitness and then she came back to acting, staging a renaissance with her TV show Grace and Frankie, which has been renewed for a sixth season.No comeback story would be complete without a mention of Robert Downey Jr., who is the classic Hollywood comeback kid.

From his early days as a child and teen actor to his well-documented struggles with substance abuse leading to his reported firing from ‘90s TV show Ally McBeal, Downey Jr. has had such a noteworthy return to form he is now one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood, reportedly earning US$75 million from 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War alone.

Netflix’s ‘Dead to Me’ Isn’t Linda Cardellini’s Most Memorable TV Show Role

Linda Cardellini’s character Judy has been blowing our minds on the new Netflix show Dead to Me. And as we anxiously await (and hope for) season 2, we did a deep dive and realized Linda has been in so many of our favorite movies and TV shows. Here’s what we found in our investigation of Linda Cardellini’s career, and it all starts back in the ’90s.

Before she was Christina Applegate and James Marsden’s co-star, she acted alongside near-countless celebs. From James Franco to Jon Hamm, there are plenty of fictional friends, romances, and enemies that’ll surprise you.

1. 1998: Boy Meets World

Before she landed her iconic role as Lindsay Weir on Freaks and Geeks, she almost tore one of our most beloved fictional couples apart. Remember Lauren, the ski lodge employee who Cory fell for briefly. They talked all night, flirted, and even went on a little date before she kissed him. Though they ultimately reunited, Topanga broke up with Cory after he admitted his feelings for Lauren.

2. 1999: Freaks and Geeks

Though it only lasted for a season, Freaks and Geeks developed a cult following that boosted the cast members’ popularity. Linda played the role of nerd Lindsay Weir, and her co-stars included James Franco, Seth Rogen, Busy Phillips, and Jason Segel.

3. 2001: Legally Blonde

If it hadn’t been for Linda’s recent Instagram, we honestly don’t think we would have figured out that she was Chutney. We could hardly recognize her face behind all the curls! As the daughter who lied about taking a shower after getting a perm, we see her shake, sweat and confess to murdering her father.

4. 2002: Scooby-Doo

Many of us likely remember Linda as Velma in Scooby-Doo and 2004’s Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. The mystery comedy made her even more of a household name. Like her character Lindsay, Velma was also a super-nerd, who shared her knowledge to save her pals.

5. 2003: ER

We were introduced to the one and only Samantha Taggart when she famously saved the day and injected a patient when no one else could. Linda played the nurse until the show’s final episode in April 2009.

6. 2005: Brokeback Mountain

We were mainly focused on Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, but who can forget when Cassie demanded that Heath’s character Ennis give her a foot massage?

7. 2013: Mad Men

Even though she was married and friends with Don Draper’s wife Megan, that didn’t stop Sylvia Rosen from having an illicit affair with the main character. Her role as a religious, guilty, and impulsive ’60s housewife is one few people can forget.

8. 2014: New Girl

For three episodes, Linda lit up the screen as Jess Day’s wild older sister Abby. She made such a statement that the episodes were titled, “Sister,” “Sister II,” and “Sister III.” If you can’t recall, just think of the one woman who tied up Schmidt and put an apple in his mouth …

9. 2015: Daddy’s Home

In the role that likely helped her become a part of the Dead to Me cast, Linda played Will Ferrell’s wife. (Will is the executive producer of Dead to Me). Like Sara, she’s trying to help her husband Brad feel more comfortable around his stepkids.

But then her ex Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) shows up and threatens the harmony they were working toward. She reprised the role in the second film, Daddy’s Home Two, in 2017.

10. 2015: Avengers: Age of Ultron

Linda surprised fans once again when she appeared as Jeremy Renner’s wife Laura Barton. She’s busy holding down the fort and taking care of their two kids (and one on the way).

Clinton Barton, better known to the public as Hawkeye, shocks his superhero friends, who didn’t know he lived such a normal life. She returned as the same character in 2019’s epic Avengers: Endgame. In a hilarious interview, her Dead to Me co-star Christina Applegate said she didn’t even know she was in the movie.

11. 2015: Bloodline

Netflix’s popular show brought Linda a gig alongside Friday Night Lights’ Kyle Chandler. The thriller series lasted for three seasons, and she starred in all of them.

12. 2016: The Founder

You might not have recognized her in the film about how McDonald’s was founded, as she swapped her brown hair from platinum blonde locks. In one of the more memorable scenes, she shows Michael Keaton’s character Ray Kroc how to make milkshakes for less money and in less time.

13 2018: A Simple Favor

Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick were the stars, but Linda made a statement as the artist who fell for Lively’s character Emily. She calls her former flame out for being a con artist and says she ruined her career (Luckily, life did not imitate art there).

14. 2018: Green Book

The Oscar winner for Best Picture featured Linda as an Italian-American bouncer’s wife Dolores. She isn’t shown often, but her character portrays a unique, accepting housewife living in the 1960s.
