Biggest Shock: Ashley Greene Can Act—Really Well

“ If there’s one major thing I took away from the reading, it’s that Hollywood has done a great disservice to Ashley Greene. Best known for her roles in the Twilightfranchise (a series Reitman has openly denigrated in the past), Greene was, at various points, poised to be the next big “It” girl—a designation that, for whatever reason, never really panned out. Here, she proved herself to be a fantastic utility player, embodying not only office mean girl Joan Holloway, but several very different minor female roles. Perhaps the most notable was Annie, the beautiful actress whose confidence is gradually ground to a pulp by Peggy Olsen during a recording for Relax-a-Cizor. It takes a dynamic performer to realistically portray characters as diverse as Joan and Annie, but Greene was more than up for the task and succeeded with flying colors. “
