Anyone remotely familiar with pop culture knows of Jennifer Garner. Maybe you’re a fan of rom coms and caught her starring role in 13 Going on 30, or you’re a fan of strong women, loving the elevation Sydney Bristow brought to the small screen during the early noughties. You may have fallen for her girl-next-door charm in all those TV commercials, or came to love her as a mom in movies like Juno, Love, Simon, and the new Netflix movie Yes Day. Whatever the case may be, there are many reasons why one can see the shine behind Jennifer’s smile, so we’ve decided to shine a spotlight on all the Jennifer Garner movies, TV shows, and appearances where the actress and mom made us fall in love with her.
Love at First Sight
We fell in love with Jennifer Garner when she became America’s sweetheart playing Sydney Bristow ABC’s Alias.
She left ballet for theater.
The decision eventually led to her appearing on TV and film screens everywhere.
Beauty Isn’t Skin Deep
She’s been named one of People magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People in the World several times. She most recently made the cover of the “Beautiful People” issue in 2019! (But they didn’t need to tell us. We already knew!)
She Has a BA in Theater
Proving she’s not just a beauty. (Again, we knew that.)
“I do all my own stunts!”
Maxim Called It
She was ranked #1 on Maxim’s Hot 100 (2002).
Passion Play
She abandoned attending Yale to follow her passion for acting in New York City.
The Champ
She takes on-set injuries set like a champ. After getting her knuckles sliced by Will Yun Lee on the set of Elektra, she got patched up, resumed the scene, and got sliced a second time in the same spot.
