"Everybody&amp;#x27;s gotta start somewhere, and &amp;quot;somewhere&amp;quot; can mean the BK drive-thru, a fake hospital or... the corn. But if you ask me, these crazy/cheesy/humble early gigs of now-revered awards season heavyweights only makes their accomplishments all the more impressive. Naomi Watts played the lead in a Children of the Corn straight-to-video sequel in 1996. Anne Hathaway is at, like, 60 percent Fantine-devastation in this old Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate spot. It&amp;#x27;s gripping! Jennifer Lawrence brought a dose of Academy-caliber skill to Cold Case in 2007. She looks so young here: Jessica Chastain was on ER in &amp;#x27;04&amp;amp;#8212;now a Best-Actress Oscar favorite, she wasn&amp;#x27;t even the patient being operated on at the time. She was the friend of the patient. Now that&amp;#x27;s an upwards trajectory. I recently discovered, and am now obsessed with, Ben Affleck&amp;#x27;s 1989 Burger King commercial. The cojones on this young lad! But this, hands down, is the one that blew my mind the most: Amy Adams was in the 2000 straight-to-DVD sequel to Cruel Intentions. WHAAAAAT. Which of these surprised you? Photo: YouTube"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
