Amy Adams was last seen playing a bellicose, potty-mouthed waitress in David O. Russell's gritty drama The Fighter, a role for she earned a deserved third Oscar nomination.

On she switches gears entirely; playing an angelic small-town schoolteacher in Disney's PG-rated musical comedy the Muppets, so I submit that one actress in Hollywood today could make the transition so effortlessly.
