20 Movie Auditions For Famous Roles You Need To See

6. Emma Stone As Olive - Easy A

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m173M3mG1w Emma Stone displayed not only her acting skill but her business savvy in this audition. She created a tape that was in the style of the video blog entries that Olive films throughout Easy A. In doing so, she showcases her charm and uniquely quirky sense of humor in a way that grabbed the attention of the film€™s production team like no traditional audition could. Her audition is so polished that it almost feels like it could be in the finished film, and is undoubtedly what gave her a leg up over all the other aspiring actresses competing for the role. And since Easy A was the film that established Emma Stone as a major actress, it€™s hardly overstating things to suggest that this audition made her career.

5. Hugh Laurie As Gregory House - House

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqHh6TvGQIQ Hugh Laurie has been an established actor for decades in the UK, but before House came out, he was largely unknown in the United States, one of those actors people have seen in things but don€™t know their name. Gregory House was the role that finally made the talented actor a household name on both sides of the pond. So in a way, it€™s kind of funny that his audition tape is so unassuming. Filmed in a hotel room, Hugh Laurie is unshaven and particularly rumpled, looking like he was nursing a hangover and hadn€™t slept in days. Was this intentional, or just proof that Hugh Laurie was born to play the role of the famously caustic House? To be honest, both are equally likely.
