The big finale of "American Idol"'s 11th season is finally upon us this week, and we noticed that this year's two finalists look as cut out for the camera as they do for the stage (hello Phillip Phillips!).

It certainly doesn't hurt that so many "Idol" alums before them have successfully launched from the show's giant platform into the world of film.

In fact, there have been a lot of reality stars in general who've made a name in the movie scene. Here are our top 15. Get More »

'Fifty Shades of Grey': Who Should Star in the Steamy Adaptation?

Fifty Shades of Grey

If you've passed a bookstore or checked out the cover of Entertainment Weekly lately, you may be familiar with "Fifty Shades of Grey" trilogy. E.L. James' first novel is all the rage right now, but it started out as a mega-popular piece of "Twilight" fan fiction called "Master of the Universe." Seriously. The book, which now follows a clumsy, virginal brunette named Anastasia Steele as she falls for a gorgeous, auburn-haired billionaire named Christian Grey, once used the names Bella and Edward and was written with Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in mind.

Unlike Bella and Edward, who don't get it on until they're married, Ana and Christian barely know each other when they begin a kinky sexual relationship in which Edward Christian is a Dominant and Ana a Submissive. Think of it as "Twilight" minus the paranormal plus the graphic sexuality of "9 1/2 Weeks" by way of the dominant-submissive romance in "Secretary."

Now that Universal and Focus have optioned the book, the question on readers' minds is whether Robsten will consider starring in the roles literally written for them. While James, who has ultimate casting control over the leads, has said she hopes unknown stars will take the parts, she surely would love Rob and Kristen to say yes. But if they don't, here's a slate of other potential Anas and Christians that could steam it up together on-screen. Get More »

Next Factor Q&A: 'Damsels in Distress' Star Analeigh Tipton

It's hard to define it — but we know it when we see it. We knew Jennifer Lawrence had it, way back in "Winter's Bone." Emma Stone had it in spades in "Superbad," small part or no. And when we saw Analeigh Tipton as the lovelorn babysitter in last year's "Crazy Stupid Love," there it was.

Tipton appears next in Whit Stillman's latest film, "Damsels in Distress" — his first since "The Last Days of Disco" in 1998 — and it's clear that our gut instinct was dead on: This girl has enough it to spare, and "Damsels" won't be her last starring role.

When we met Tipton in New York City, the 23-year-old actress tipped us off to the linguistic benefits of working with Stillman, what we can expect from her upcoming zombie movie, "Warm Bodies" and how much of a total nerdface she is, deep down. (Hint: It's a lot.) Get More »

All these folks have that potential for longevity, but they're starting things off with a clean slate as they attempt to win us over with breakout performances in some of Hollywood's biggest films.
