Emily Jean "Emma" Stone (born November 6, 1988) is an American actress and producer. She has won two Academy Awards, two BAFTA Awards, and two Golden Globe Awards. Her career began at Phoenix's Valley Youth Theatre with The Wind in the Willows (2000) and at fifteen, she moved to Los Angeles, debuting in an unsold television pilot, In Search of the New Partridge Family (2004). Stone gained recognition through teen comedies like Superbad (2007), Zombieland (2009), and Easy A (2010), her first starring role, earning a Golden Globe nomination for the latter. Her roles in Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011) and The Help (2011) highlighted her versatility, while The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and its 2014 sequel elevated her global profile. Stone earned her first Oscar nomination for Birdman (2014), and won Best Actress for La La Land (2016) and Poor Things (2023); she has also earned nominations for The Favourite (2018) and Bugonia (2025). She starred in Battle of the Sexes (2017), Cruella (2021), and Maniac (2018). In 2020, she co-founded Fruit Tree, producing films Problemista (2023) and I Saw the TV Glow (2024). Stone's collaboration with Yorgos Lanthimos, inspired by her admiration for his films like The Lobster (2015) and Dogtooth (2009), spans The Favourite, Poor Things, and Kinds of Kindness (2024), and Bugonia. This partnership, driven by her trust in his vision, reflects her deliberate shift toward experimental cinema over mainstream Hollywood projects.
The plot follows Tori as she finds her place within Hollywood Arts while getting into crazy situations and adventures, and meeting friends to help her along the way. Other students at Hollywood Arts, and the students who make up Tori's group of friends, include Andre Harris, a musical prodigy who becomes Tori's best friend at Hollywood Arts after encouraging her to stay at the school and helping her realize her talent; Robbie Shapiro, a socially awkward ventriloquist who carries around his puppet Rex Powers, who is seen by Robbie (and generally everyone else) as a living person; Jade West, a sarcastic and Gothic "mean girl" who has a complicated frenemy relationship with Tori and often threatens her; Cat Valentine, a sweet and innocent but naive and somewhat dim-witted girl; and Beck Oliver, a down-to-earth and handsome guy who is Jade's boyfriend.
