You probably know where this is going: Straight to Twitter. Kendrick's screen presence, classical training and ability to play just about every role possible may have gotten her some of her most impressive gigs, but it's her quick with and thumbs-to-the-keyboard persistence that made her a major movie star. While some celebs eschew social media, she embraces it—and uses it to her every advantage. For years now she's been taking to Twitter to do everything from airing a random grievance, live-tweeting Grease! Live (or her own personal closet clean out) and even to just share her thoughts on California rolls with her now-5.2 million followers.
Her tweets have earned her countless admirers, dozens of dedicated essays and thought-pieces, and now she's going for the big-time: A book deal. The tome, which is titled Scrappy Little Nobody and is due out this November, will cover, according to the publisher, anecdotes from her life, tales of her New England upbringing and inside stories from her experiences in Hollywood. In other words, it's going to be one giant, well-edited Twitter feed.
Which brings us to the Anna Kendrick we know and love today; the A-lister who opens blockbusters and appears on every late show known to man. With her part opposite Zac Efron and big fat book advance she could sit back and rest on her laurels, but instead she's got herself quite a solid 2016 and 2017 lined up. We'll see her opposite Ben Affleck and J.K. Simmons in this fall's thriller The Accountant, voicing a part in the huge animation flick Trolls, and finally dropping that much-anticipated Pitch Perfect 3. In other words, it's good to be Anna Kendrick.
