Parker Posey

Born November 8, 1968, best known for such movies as Dazed and Confused, Party Girl, The Doom Generation, The House of Yes, Scream 3, Josie and the Pussycats, Blade: Trinity, Superman Returns, and all of Christopher Guest's mockumentaries. Has also guest-starred on The Simpsons, Futurama, and Boston Legal.

Associated Tropes:

Cloud Cuckoolander
Brilliant, but Lazy: Her role in Party Girl showed her as a typical 90's slacker that was capable of doing more.
Deadpan Snarker: Almost every role she's in.
Mean Character, Nice Actor: As mentioned, she has played a lot of nasty characters but she is known as being very professional and easy to work with.
Playing Against Type: She played The Ditz in Superman Returns, going against her usual, intellectual character type. Also, even though that character worked for Lex Luthor, she was actually much nicer than many of her characters... even the law-abiding ones.
