Kristen Carroll Wiig

Kristen Wiig is a well-known American comedian who became famous for her films "Girl in Vegas", "The Martian," "Paul: The Secret Material" and many others. The actress also performed for nine years in the humorous TV show "Saturday Night Live."

Kristen was born in Canandeigua, a suburb of New York City. Her father John Wiig was the owner of a small yacht club, and her mother Lauria Johnson - a professional artist and decorator. Three years after the birth of their daughter, Wig moved to Pennsylvania, in the town of Lancaster, where Kristen's childhood and adolescence were spent.

For a long time, Kristen didn't even think about acting biography. The girl was interested in medicine, so after graduating from a very prestigious high school she entered college with a degree in Psychoanalyst. However, Wiig could not stand even one course there, dropped out of school and returned home.

The following year she became a student at the University of Arizona, where she studied fine arts. But even plunging into creativity, Kristen could not completely exclude medicine from her life: she moonlighted as an administrator in the office of plastic surgery. Thus, the girl's life went with the flow, but then fate intervened. Almost by chance, Wig gets to the rehearsal of the student drama circle and falls in love with the scene.

As a result, Kristen drops out of university, as before college, and goes to Los Angeles to become a real actress. She managed to join the troupe of comedians "Groundlings", where she met the textured artist Melissa McCarthy. Together, they appeared on "The Drew Carey Show" and later did an entertainment program on "Saturday Night Live."

Kristen Wiig has been appearing in the game since 2003, starring for the first time in the melodrama "I'm with her". This was followed by the romantic comedy "Slightly Pregnant", the family picture "Children Unattended", the domestic comedy "Solomon Brothers", the melodrama "Hello, Bill!" and the mystical story "Ghost City".

In 2010, the actress starred in the crime comedy "Mad Date" about how the couple introduced herself as other people's names to get a table in a restaurant, after which they were mistaken for people associated with the mafia.

The name Kristen Wiig became more and more famous to a wide range of movie fans, and in 2011 there was a real breakthrough. It is noteworthy that for the film, which became its starting point for the olympic stars, the actress herself wrote the script. It's about the women's comedy "Girl in Vegas", which had great reviews of critics and audiences. The film, as the name implies, tells about the adventures of the company of girls who decided to relax before the wedding of one of the friends.

Since then, the actress has been regularly nominated for prestigious Emmy, Golden Globe and Academy Awards. From the subsequent works stand out fantastic comedy "Paul: The Secret Material", ironic detective "All the break!", melodrama "Hate, friendship", comedy "Children sex is not a hindrance" and soulful adventure picture "The Incredible Life of Walter Mitty".

In 2014, the actress starred in the tragicomedy "Twins." The film tells the story of a brother and sister who did not communicate for ten years, but, at the same time, getting into a situation where almost died, firmly decided to fix their own lives. Restoring family ties was also part of the twins' plans.

Kristen also appeared in the acclaimed sci-fi film "The Martian", starring NASA's director of media relations Annie Montrose, and the melodrama "Diary of a Teenage Girl."

Kristen Wiig has a memorable and original appearance, but still there are actresses who have repeatedly confused with Kristen. Of the Hollywood actresses on Wig is similar to Jennifer Aniston, and from the Russian special similarity differs Ekaterina Klimova.

In 2016, the world screens released a kind of remake of the famous fantasy comedy "Ghostbusters", where the main characters by the will of the writers turn into fearless ladies, one of which was Kristen Wiig.

The film is filled with references to the original picture: the main characters are also four, the costumes of ghost hunters are similar in color and design, in the plot there are monsters shown in the original films. But, nevertheless, the authors position this film as an independent picture, with a separate world and plot. The film is set in modern times and is saturated with new devices and topical jokes.

The film received mixed responses. Some fans of the franchise accused the authors of the film of disrespecting the original, while the other was delighted with the remake, saying that the company of four female heroines perfectly dilutes the genre of fiction, which today remains a rather "male" genre. The film did not show very well at the box office: the fees exceeded the budget of the picture only twice. Critics of the film attributed the financial failure to the quality of the film, but later it turned out that the film was not shown in a number of countries for political reasons and did not receive some of the possible rental money.
