About Leslie Mann

At the age of 18, Mann began her career by participating in a number of ads that were broadcast on television. Her first role was in 1996’s The Cable Guy, and subsequent roles included Freaks & Geeks, Sam Weisman’s George of the Jungle (in which she co-starred with Brendan Fraser), Big Daddy (in which she co-starred with Adam Sandler), Orange County (in which she co-starred opposite Jack Black), and The 40-Year-Old Virgin (in which she co-starred opposite Steve Carell).

Although she was born in San Francisco, California, Mann spent the majority of his childhood in Newport Beach. Her mother, Janet, who oversaw the design and quality initiatives at Ayres Hotel group for a total of eight years, was responsible for her upbringing.

Mann has expressed the following about her father: “The truth is, I don’t really have a father figure in my life. I mean, he does exist, but there is no connection between us at all. Zero.” She has two biological siblings and three stepbrothers who are older than her. Sadie Viola Helja Rasanen, the woman who was the woman’s maternal grandmother, was the daughter of Finnish immigrants.

During her time spent auditioning for “The Cable Guy,” Mann became acquainted with Judd Apatow, who would later become her husband. They tied the knot on June 9, 1997. Apatow, who was also one of the film’s producers, acted as a stand-in for Jim Carrey and read the lines to the actresses who were being considered for the role. Both of Mann and Apatow’s daughters, Maude and Iris, have made cameo appearances in the movies Knocked Up, Funny People, and This Is 40 as the offspring of Mann’s characters in those movies. During the year 2017, Mann and his eldest daughter Maude participated in commercials for Jergens Skin Care products together.

In 2007, Mann played opposite Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd in the comedy film Knocked Up, which was directed by Judd Apatow and made more than $218 million around the world. Her turn earned her a nomination for “Best Supporting Actress” from the Chicago Film Critics Association in addition to several acclaims for her portrayal. The movie was recognized as one of the “Favorite Movie Comedy” by the American Film Institute and was nominated for “Top Ten Films of the Year” by the Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards. It also took home the “Best Comedy” award from the People’s Choice Awards.

In 2009, Mann appeared in Judd Apatow’s film Funny People alongside her former co-stars from the films Big Daddy and Knocked Up, Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen. This movie made it onto a number of publications’ and websites’ lists of the best of the year, including The New Yorker and The New York Times.

According to Mickey Rapkin, a writer for Elle, “[Mann] owns the second half of 2009’s Funny People, where her character does the most unlikely thing a woman can do in a major studio picture: has an affair with an ex-boyfriend on a whim.” This scene takes place in the movie Funny People. During the same year, Mann also had a role in the hit comedy 17 Again, which was directed by Burr Steers and starred Zac Efron, Matthew Perry, and himself. The film made over $125 million worldwide.

In addition, she starred opposite Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor in the independent film I Love You, Phillip Morris, which became a hit. It had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in 2009, and after it was released, it was met with widespread acclaim, earning nominations for several awards, including “Best Comedy” at the 2011 Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards. In addition, Mann acted alongside Elizabeth Banks in the movie What Was I Thinking?, which was filmed in 2009 but was never made available to the public. The movie was adapted from a book written by Barbara Davilman and Liz Dubelman.

In 2011, Mann played alongside Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman in the comedy film The Change-Up, which was directed by David Dobkin. Additionally, she lent her voice to “Linda” the main human character in Carlos Saldanha’s animated film Rio, which grossed over $484 million worldwide and also featured vocal performances by Jamie Foxx and Anne Hathaway; in addition, she lent her voice to Jonah Hill‘s animated FOX television series Allen Gregory, in which she played the role of the title character’s second-grade teacher.

2012 marked the continuation of Mann’s career as a voice actress when she was cast in the part of ParaNorman, an animated 3D stop-motion film directed by Chris Butler and Sam Fell.

She had a role opposite Paul Rudd in the 2012 film This Is 40, which was directed by Judd Apatow and was the sequel to the film Knocked Up. Mann and Rudd reprised the roles that they had played in the first film in this sequel, which brought the original cast back together. Judd Apatow was not only the writer and director of the second installment, but he also cast the couple’s two daughters in the film.

In contrast to Knocked Up, the focus of This Is 40 was entirely on Mann’s character and the relationships within her family. According to an early review of Mann’s performance that was published in Elle Magazine, “[she] doesn’t just walk off with scenes—she steals the show” Because of her performance in “This Is 40,” Mann received a nomination from the Broadcast Film Critics Association for “Best Actress in a Comedy.”

In 2013, Mann co-starred alongside Emma Watson in the film The Bling Ring, which was directed by Sofia Coppola. The film is based on real-life events and tells the story of a group of fame-obsessed teens from Los Angeles who broke into the houses of celebrities by following their movements on the Internet.

She provided the narration for an episode of the second season of Makers: Women Who Make America titled “Women in Comedy” in 2014. In 2018, Mann appeared in the sex comedy Blockers as a single mother, and she also collaborated with Steve Carell in the film Welcome to Marwen.
