Jessica Chastain is a cinematic chameleon. She won a Golden Globe and received an Oscar nomination as the intense CIA analyst tracking Osama bin Laden in “Zero Dark Thirty,” a woman worlds away from the ditzy Southern wife she played in “The Help” a year earlier.

“She has a face that is classically elegant and eminently malleable,” wrote The Observer’s Andrew Gumbel. “She fits right into the contemporary world, but can just as easily hark back to an older era of silver-screen elegance or impeccable Edwardian manners. She can be torrid, frosty, garrulous or painfully shy, with equal conviction.”
