Career
2001–2004: Career development
Hathaway made her movie debut in the Garry Marshall-directed The Princess Diaries (2001, 10 years ago).
It was generally well received by critics.Hathaway's first role in a motion picture (wallpaper) was as Jean Sabin in The Other Side of Heaven, opposite Christopher Gorham. Before production of Heaven began in New Zealand, she auditioned for the lead role of Mia Thermopolis in The Princess Diaries, directed by Garry Marshall. Hathaway auditioned for the role during a flight layover on the way to New Zealand and won the role after only one audition. Marshall claimed that he loved her immediately because she fell off her chair during the audition and believed her clumsiness would make her perfect for the role. (However, in a 2008 (3 years ago) conversation with Steve Carell, Hathaway denied that she fell during this audition, although she openly admits to being a "klutz".) The Princess Diaries was released before The Other Side of Heaven in the hopes that its success would increase interest in Heaven. Across the world, The Princess Diaries was a commercial success, and a sequel was planned shortly after. Many critics praised Hathaway's performance in Diaries; a BBC critic noted that "Hathaway shines in the title role and generates great chemistry." The Other Side of Heaven was received weakly by critics, but it performed well for a religion-themed film.
In Feb. 2002 (9 years ago), Hathaway starred opposite Brian Stokes Mitchell in the City Center Encores! concert production of Carnival! in New York City, receiving positive reviews for her portrayal of Lili. Also in 2002 (9 years ago), Hathaway began voicing the audio book releases of The Princess Diaries and has since voiced the first three books of the series. She also provided the voice of the character Haru in the English version of Hiroyuki Morita's The Cat Returns.
Hathaway continued to appear in family-oriented movies over the next three years, subsequently becoming known in mainstream media as a children's role model. In 2002 (9 years ago), she appeared in Nicholas Nickleby, opposite Charlie Hunnam and Jamie Bell, which opened to positive reviews. The Northwest Herald referred to it as "an unbelievably fun film," and the Deseret News said that the cast was "Oscar-worthy." Despite critical acclaim, the movie never entered wide release and failed at the North American box office, totaling less than US$4-million in ticket sales.
Hathaway's next movie role was as the titular character in Ella Enchanted (2004, 7 years ago), the movie
adaptation of the novel, which opened to mostly indifferent reviews. Hathaway sang two songs in the movie as well as three on the soundtrack.
In 2004 (7 years ago), Hathaway was set to star opposite Gerard Butler (5 walls) in The Phantom of the Opera, but was forced to turn down the role because the production schedule of the movie overlapped with that of The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, which she was contractually obligated to make. Disney began production on The Princess Diaries 2 in early 2004 (7 years ago), and it was released in Aug. of that year. The movie opened to negative reviews, but still managed to peak higher at the box office than its predecessor, commissioning $95.1-million against a $40-million budget.
2005–2007: Career transition
Hathaway's career moved in a less comedic direction with her role in
Brokeback Mountain (2005, 6 years ago).Hathaway began appearing in more dramatic roles after The Princess Diaries 2. She said that "anybody who was a role model for children needs a reprieve," although she also noted that "it's lovely to think that my audience is growing up with me", a reference to her previous status

After Havoc, Hathaway appeared opposite Heath Ledger (5 walls) and Jake Gyllenhaal (6 walls) in the drama Brokeback Mountain, in a role that further displayed her development as a dramatic actor. Havoc was not released in theaters in the United States (but was later released in other countries) because of its weak critical reception, but Brokeback Mountain won rave reviews for its depiction of a homosexual relationship in the 1960 (51 years ago) and received several Academy Award nominations. Hathaway would later assert that the content of Brokeback Mountain was more important than its award count and that making the movie made her more aware of the kind of stories she wanted to tell as an actress.
Hathaway's next movie was the 2006 (5 years ago) comedy The Devil Wears Prada, in which she starred as an assistant to a powerful fashion magazine editor portrayed by Meryl Streep, whom Hathaway described as being "just divine." Hathaway said that working on the movie made her respect the fashion industry a great deal more than she had previously, though she also claimed that her personal style is something she "still can't get right."
In an interview with Us Weekly, Hathaway spoke about her weight loss for the film, stating, "I basically stuck with fruit, vegetables and fish [to slim down for the movie]. I wouldn’t recommend that. Emily Blunt and I would clutch at each other and cry because we were so hungry."
Hathaway was initially cast in the 2007 (4 years ago) comedy Knocked Up, but dropped out before filming began and was replaced by Katherine Heigl. Writer/director Judd Apatow stated in a May 2007 (4 years ago) issue of The New York Times Magazine that Hathaway dropped out "because she didn't want to allow us to use real footage of a woman giving birth to create the illusion that she is giving birth." In an Aug. 2008 (3 years ago) interview with Marie Claire magazine, Hathaway commented that she "didn't believe that it was necessary to the story."
Hathaway was next seen in the 2007 (4 years ago) drama Becoming Jane, in which she portrayed English writer Jane Austen. Also in 2007 (4 years ago), Hathaway performed a selection from the musical Saturday

Tim Burton considered Hathaway for the part of Johanna in his 2007 (4 years ago) movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (5 walls), but the role went to Jayne Wisener, a then-unknown actress, reportedly because Burton decided he wanted an unknown actress for the part.
2008–present: Recent and future projects
Anne Hathaway in 2008 (3 years ago).In Jan. 2008 (3 years ago), Hathaway joined beauty giant Lancôme as the face of their fragrance Magnifique. In Oct. of that year, Hathaway hosted Saturday Night Live. Hathaway's first movie of 2008 (3 years ago) was a modern adaptation of the 1960 (51 years ago) Mel Brooks TV series Get Smart, in which she starred opposite Steve Carell, Dwayne Johnson, and Alan Arkin. The movie was a hit at the box office and received mostly positive reviews, prompting talk of a sequel. She also made a cameo appearance in the corresponding movie Get Smart's Bruce and Lloyd: Out of Control. In Oct. 2008 (3 years ago), she premiered the drama Passengers, alongside Patrick Wilson, as well as the drama Rachel Getting Married, opposite Debra Winger. Rachel Getting Married premiered at the 2008 (3 years ago) Venice and Toronto movie Festivals and garnered her widespread critical acclaim for her performance as Kym, including nominations for both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe. Hathaway stated that the movie appealed to her because of its real depiction of relationships and because of the strong emotional connection she felt with her character.
Hathaway most recently appeared in the comedy Bride Wars, released on Jan. 9, 2009 (2 years ago), in which she starred opposite Kate Hudson. Hathaway has described the movie as being "hideously commercial – gloriously so." She appeared with Hudson on the February/March 2009 (2 years ago) cover of Modern Bride despite her admission that she is "not the type of girl who dreams about her wedding." In addition to providing her voice for episodes of The Simpsons (15 walls) (1 walls) and Family Guy in 2009 (2 years ago), Hathaway also appeared as Viola in the New York Shakespeare Festival's summer 2009 (2 years ago) production of Twelfth Night at the Delacorte Theater in New York's Central Park, opposite Audra McDonald as Olivia, Raul Esparza as Duke Orsino, and Julie White as Maria.
Hathaway's future movie projects include a Tim Burton-directed adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass alongside Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp (8 walls), the romantic comedy The Fiancé, an adaptation of the Julie Buxbaum novel The Opposite of Love, the Garry Marshall-directed ensemble comedy Valentine's Day alongside Julia Roberts, Jessica Biel (57 walls), Jessica Alba (172 walls) and Ashton Kutcher (6 walls), and an adaptation of Gerald Clarke's biography Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland, in which she will play the title role on the stage and screen.
Personal life
Hathaway is involved with various charities, including The Creative Coalition, The Step Up Women's Network, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, The Human Rights Campaign, and The Lollipop Theatre Network, an organization that screens movies to critically ill children. In 2008 (3 years ago), she was honored at Elle magazine's "Women in Hollywood" tribute, and has also been honored for her work with The Step Up Women's Network and The Human Rights Campaign.
In early 2007 (4 years ago), Hathaway spoke of her experiences with depression during her teenage years, saying that she eventually overcame the disorder without medication.
In a fall 2008 (3 years ago) appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman, Hathaway noted that she had once again stopped smoking. The actress, who had begun smoking "heavily" while filming Rachel Getting Married, had "quit for a while", but had started again in the wake of her stressful summer and the end of her relationship with Raffaello Follieri. She credited quitting smoking for the subsequent decline in her stress level, and also declared her return to being a vegetarian.As of Nov. 2008 (3 years ago), Hathaway is reportedly in a relationship with actor Adam Shulman.
In regard to personal strife and subsequent media attention, Hathaway's self-subscribed mantra is a quote by Oscar Wilde: "The less said about life's sores the better."
Relationships
In 2004 (7 years ago), Hathaway began a relationship with Italian real estate developer Raffaello Follieri. During their relationship, Hathaway took part in the development of the charitable Follieri Foundation, serving as a financial donor as well as a member of the foundation's board of directors until 2007 (4 years ago). A Manhattan-based charity founded in 2003 (8 years ago) focusing on programs such as providing vaccinations for children in Third World nations, the organization had come under investigation in early Jun. 2008 (3 years ago) by the IRS, reportedly for failing to file tax papers required from non-profit organizations. Citing the fear that this and other ongoing legal issues involving Follieri would become detrimental to her acting career (as well as for her own ethical reasons), Hathaway ended her relationship with Follieri in mid-June 2008 (3 years ago).
Follieri was arrested in Jun. 2008 (3 years ago) on fraud charges for allegedly fleecing investors out of millions of dollars in a scheme involving purchasing Catholic Church properties in the U.S. for redevelopment. Court papers state that Hathaway was an unwitting beneficiary of the stolen money, which had in large part paid for Follieri's opulent lifestyle of jet-setting, shopping sprees, and fine dining. It was reported that the FBI had confiscated Hathaway's private journals from Follieri's New York City apartment as part of their ongoing investigation into Follieri's activities; however, Hathaway was never implicated in any wrongdoing from the events.
In the Oct. 2008 (3 years ago) issue of W Magazine, Hathaway spoke for the first time of the break-up and Follieri's subsequent arrest. She related that she "spent a week in shock" after Follieri's arrest, and credited the kindness of friends for her ability to keep working during such difficult times.
