3. Rebel Wilson

Rebel Wilson The Australian-born actress burst onto the screen in a big way (despite such a small role) last year in Bridesmaids. But in 2012, she moved more to the forefront with several films, each showcasing her amazing comedic talents. She starred in another female-led wedding comedy €“ The Bachelorette, co-starring with Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fischer, and Lizzy Caplan. She also co-starred in the indie comedy Struck by Lightning, the ensemble pregnancy comedy What To Expect When You€™re Expecting, and provided a voice for the animated fourquel Ice Age: Continental Drift. But the role she is getting the most notice for is Fat Amy in the comedy-musical Pitch Perfect, a better than expected guilty pleasure. What€™s Next: Michael Bay€™s Pain & Gain alongside Mark Wahlberg & Dwayne Johnson, plus she will host the 2013 MTV Movie Awards in a few months.
