Mary Elizabeth Winstead is an American actress, born in 1984, currently best known for being Ramona in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. She is rather a "scream queen", having been in Final Destination 3 and the remake of Black Christmas, as well as Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof. She got much more mainstream exposure playing Bruce Willis' daughter in Die Hard 4.0/Live Free Or Die Hard, and playing a dancer in Make It Happen.

Now that Katie Holmes has disappeared to become Mrs. Tom Cruise, and Jennifer Connelly is getting on a bit, Winstead is probably the best hope for a movie star Girl Next Door type.
