The Transformation Of Jessica Lange From Childhood To AHS

Jessica Lange has the range. The actress is one of the few to win the "triple crown" of acting: an Emmy, a Tony, and an Academy Award, per Insider. That's one Grammy short of an EGOT, by the way. Someone give her a David Bowie cover album, stat! Lange actually has two Oscars and three Emmys, so she's really more of an EEEOOT. But Lange got a surprisingly late start on all her acting plaudits, only joining the biz at the age of 27.

Drew Barrymore could finally win her first Emmy after her ‘Grey Gardens’ co-star Jessica Lange bested her 12 years ago

“The Drew Barrymore Show” launched in 2020, and in addition to inspiring that viral “SNL” sketch starring Chloe Fineman, it’s now a Daytime Emmy nominee for Best Entertainment Talk Show and Best Entertainment Talk Show Host. Drew Barrymore herself is a nominee in both cases since she’s both the host and an executive producer, and if she wins, she would avenge a loss in prime time from 12 years ago.

Why Jessica Lange Was Never The Same After American Horror Story

So far, American Horror Story has packed in a lot of storylines, memorable characters, and morbid curiosity, but above all else, the core cast members have had a big hand in shaping the series. In particular, Jessica Lange is one of the main faces of AHS, and she's extremely thankful for it. A lot of people's careers take off after they've made their mark on the show, but Lange was already considered an icon in Hollywood decades before her roles as Constance, Fiona, Sister Jude, and Elsa. She's also known for her role as Dwan in the 1976 rendition of King Kong and has even won two Oscars for her parts in Tootsie and Blue Sky. To say she's had a career full of success and promise is an understatement.

40 actresses who played actresses for Oscar wins or nominations, including Renee Zellweger, Cate Blanchett, Jessica Lange [PHOTOS]

One quick and almost easy way to an Oscar nomination or even a win is for an actress to play another actress, either real or fictional. Ever since Amanda Seyfried made her feature film debut in 2004’s “Mean Girls,” she has been mostly known for appearing in 2008’s “Mamma Mia!” as Meryl Streep’s daughter Sophie and as Cosette in 2012’s “Les Miserables.” Both musical adaptations of beloved Broadway hits were box-office blockbusters. But the rest of her resume is mostly filled with middle-of-the road fare such as 2010’s “Dear John” and “Letters to Juliet” or under-performers such as 2009’s “Jennifer’s Body,” 2011’s “Red Riding Hood” and 2015’s “Pan.”
