Anna Kendrick in Vanity Fair

Every month, the first page of Vanity Fair's "Vanities" section features an up-and-coming actor with a hotly anticipated project in the pipeline. Anna is the one featured for January.

Here is what Vanity Fair had to say:

Age: 24
Provenance: Portland, Maine

It’s a vampire world and we’re just dying in it: Kendrick made her name in the original Twilight movie—“I had no idea; none of us knew”—as mere mortal Jessica Stanley, “Bella’s friend from school.” She reprises the role in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, in theaters now.

For the adults in the audience...Kendrick shines as George Clooney’s tightly wound underling in Jason Reitman’s well-timed dramedy about corporate cost-cutting, Up in the Air, which is already generating Oscar buzz. “I was shooting them both at the same time,” says Kendrick. “It was great because my character in Up in the Air is so rigid, and it was fun to go to Vancouver [to the set of New Moon] and play the silliest girl on the planet!”
