Jena Malone is a Hollywood actress best known for her roles in "Into the Wild", "The Go-Getter" and "The Ruins".

Malone made the jump to professional acting with the 1996 film "Bastard Out of Carolina". She was nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Debut Performance and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance in a TV Movie or Miniseries for this role. From there, her roles grew in stature, including several Hollywood features.

In 1997, she was nominated for a Golden Globe, Best Actress in a Mini-Series or TV Movie, for her role in Hope.

After several years of being homeschooled, she briefly attended the Professional Children's School in New York, but did not last long. In January 2000, Malone won legal emancipation from her mother, barring her from interfering with her career and earnings; Malone has said that her mother "mismanaged" some of her earnings.

Malone was a co-producer for the 2002 film American Girl, a drama which she also acted in. She was due to feature in the film Vinyl, but had to withdraw due to filming conflicts, and was replaced by Michelle Trachtenberg. She had her first starring role in the 2004 film Saved!. In 2006, she made her professional stage debut in the Broadway production of the Tony Award winning play Doubt.

Jena Malone Runs a Marathon in Eugene O'Neil Play

From:  theimproper.com
Mourning Becomes Electra is rarely revived because the Eugene O’Neil Civil War epic runs five hours when it goes unedited, and features three smaller plays within the main play. On top of the lengthy script, the lead character, Lavinia, is on stage for most of the play! Though daunting, the role is a real treat for an actress, and Jena Malone embraces the part. Though mostly known for her work in film (“Bastard Out of Carolina,” “Stepmom,” “Saved,” “Cold Mountain,” The Ruins”), Malone... Read Full Story

Fashion Rebel: Jena Malone

There's a thin line between daring and detestable, and Jena Malone seems to skirt that line fairly often.  I admire her for dipping into some looks I haven't seen since 1988 (SHOULDER PADS, anyone?), but I wonder if she's trying a little too hard to appear the "artsy, quirky girl" she so often plays. This is Jena at the premiere of The Go-Getter (I hadn't heard of it, either).  I actually really love this look.  She's softened up her dark bob with a few loose curls--sweet--and the soft orange...
