Though she'd appeared on TV ("I Married Dora," "The Wonder Years") and in "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation," Juliette Lewis exploded on the scene in Martin Scorsese's "Cape Fear" in 1991 and was suddenly everywhere. She appeared in Woody Allen's 1992 "Husbands and Wives," "Kalifornia" with Brad Pitt, "Romeo Is Bleeding" with Gary Oldman, and "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" with Johnny Depp, all before we saw her in the role of Mallory Knox in "Natural Born Killers."
"With Juliette, I felt something was weird, something was off-kilter," Oliver Stone said in the "NBK" featurette "Chaos Rising." No questions there. Whether she's blowing poor victims away with a shotgun, or doing her best Audrey Horne impression in jail, Mallory is the ideal muse for Mickey's revenge. During production, things actually got a little out of hand at one point. While whaling on Tom Sizemore's Jack Scagnetti, Lewis wound up breaking his nose in the process.
Lewis has never really stopped working. Her memorable post-"NBK" roles include Kathryn Bigelow's "Strange Days," Robert Rodriguez's "From Dusk Till Dawn" (opposite George Clooney and screenwriter Quentin Tarantino), and NBC's John Grisham adaptation-slash-sequel "The Firm" in 2012. During a portion of the 2000s, Lewis focused on her music career at the helm of the band Juliette and the Licks. She's since come roaring back to acting thanks to her roles on Showtime's hit series "Yellowjackets," and Peacock's reboot of "Queer as Folk." She's also slated to appear in Hulu's "Welcome to Chippendales," with Kumail Nanjiani.
