As the daughter of American filmmaker Ron Howard and fellow actress Cheryl Howard, Bryce Dallas Howard has followed in her parents’ footsteps with a career in the film industry. She is a woman of many talents; not only can she act, but she can also direct. Howard has starred in many award-nominated films and television series such as Black Mirror, The Help, Spider-Man 3, and most recently, Jurassic World Dominion.
Despite Dads, a documentary film about fatherhood, being her first feature directorial debut, she has previously directed other projects. Some of those projects include a television film called Call Me Crazy: A Five Film, two episodes of The Mandalorian, and The Book of Boba Fett’s“Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian” episode.
Black Mirror: Nosedive (2016)
Bryce Dallas Howard plays the leading role of Lacie Pound. Her world has been dominated by technology where people share their day-to-day activities through their mobile devices. Their interactions are usually rated by other users on a scale of one to five stars, with the rating defining someone’s socioeconomic status.
Nosedive inspired the CEO of Instagram to experiment with the social media platform by hiding the ‘likes’ feature on Instagram as he recognized its possible negative aspects on users. The episode was nominated for a BAFTA Television Craft Award, Art Directors Guild Award, NAACP Image Award, and a Primetime Emmy Award. Howard also received a Screen Actors Guild Awards nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Movie to Miniseries.
Spider-Man 3 (2007)
Spider-Man 3 was the last of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy. Bryce Dallas Howard plays the role of Gwen Stacy, Peter’s lab partner. In the film, Peter (Tobey Maguire) asks Gwen out to embarrass his love interest Mary Jane (Kirsten Dunst), while being possessed by the symbiote. Howard mentions that in preparing to play the role of Gwen Stacy, she read not just comics, but also “almost like thesis papers” since her character was created in the late 60s and early 70s.
She found it a little tricky as Gwen was known as Peter Parker’s first love in the comics, but the case was different in Raimi’s franchise. Howard says she wanted to be sure that she “wasn’t acting like some kind of man-stealing tart.” Howard also did many of her stunts for the film but was unaware that she had already been a few months pregnant at the time. Spider-Man 3 is currently the fifth highest-grossing film ever released by Sony Pictures.
The Help (2011)
Viola Davis plays the character of Aibileen Clark, the maid of a socialite Elizabeth Leefolt (Ahna O’Reilly) while her best friend, Minerva “Minny” Jackson (Octavia Spencer), is the maid to Mrs.Walters (Sissy Spacek) and her daughter, Hillary “Hilly” Walters Holbrook (Bryce Dallas Howard). All the White characters in the film are racist, except an aspiring journalist, Eugenia “Skeeter” Phelan (Emma Stone). Phelan’s discomfort with racism in her town inspires her to write a book from the point of view of Black maids who experience daily racism from the White families they work for.
In an interview with The Guardian, Howard expresses her struggle in playing a racist character in The Help. Howard “had this feeling of churning, churning. I thought, ‘What is happening to me? There’s a disruption in my soul right now.” She adds that she is now “cautious about the bodies and spirits” she inhabits (referring to the characters she chooses to play). The Help received many wins and nominations from Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Kyle was right about his instincts as he witnessed Rachael kissing another man at a gallery. He forces her to confess her infidelity to Adam, and this leads to their break-up. 50/50 was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards: Best Picture (Musical or Comedy) and Best Actor (Musical or Comedy) for Gordon-Levitt.
