It’s rare enough to be nominated for an Academy Award as a child, but it’s even more unique when it happens in your feature film debut. That’s precisely what Hailee Steinfeld did in 2010 when she starred alongside some of Hollywood’s biggest names, and her career has only grown since then. Steinfeld has received critical accolades for nearly every role she has played, as well as her performances. Her roles on Letterboxd truly showcase her impressive talents with superhero fare, teen comedies, westerns, miniseries, and more.

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse (2018)

Hailee Steinfeld’s best film is one in which she lends her voice to a role. In Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, she portrays Gwen Stacy/Spider-Gwen. Many people consider it to be the best Marvel superhero film ever made. Miles Morales gaining superpowers and receiving assistance from Spider-People from other realities was a smash hit. From the visual aesthetic to the voice acting, it won Best Animated Feature at both the Oscars and the Golden Globes. In the sequels, Steinfeld will reprise her role, and a spin-off based on her character is in the works.

True Grit (2010)

As previously stated, Hailee Steinfeld began her career as a teenager with an Academy Award nomination. In The Coen Brothers’ rendition of True Grit, she played Mattie, a teenager who hires a Deputy Marshal to track down the man who killed her father. Despite being new to the industry, Steinfeld held her own against established actors such as Jeff Bridges, Josh Brolin, and Matt Damon, frequently stealing the show. True Grit was Steinfeld’s way of presenting herself to Hollywood with a boom, even if she didn’t win an Oscar.

Hawkeye (2021)

Letterboxd is primarily centered on movies, but it also has a large selection of miniseries. As a result, most of the Marvel Cinematic Universe episodes on Disney+ are now available on the platform, including Hawkeye, which marks Hailee Steinfeld’s first appearance in the franchise. She portrays Kate Bishop, an archer who becomes the Avenger Hawkeye’s unlikely protege. Many believe that like most other MCU episodes thus far, failed to land, but nearly everyone praised Steinfeld’s portrayal as Bishop, as well as her chemistry with Jeremy Renner and Florence Pugh. Bishop’s fans all throughout the world are eagerly anticipating more from him.

The Edge Of Seventeen (2016)

This decade was one of the best for female-driven coming-of-age films, which didn’t get enough attention. There are several modern classics, from Lady Bird to Booksmart, but it may be argued that The Edge of Seventeen is the best of them all. In a Golden Globe-nominated performance, Hailee Steinfeld plays Nadine Franklin. Nadine, who is still grieving over her father’s death, has a falling out with her best friend after she starts dating her elder brother. It leads her down a difficult path, which she must navigate with the unexpected assistance of her teacher.

Begin Again (2013)

Hailee Steinfeld didn’t star in another feature picture for a couple of years after her successful debut. That changed in 2013 when she appeared in Begin Again starring Mark Ruffalo and Keira Knightley in a major supporting role. Begin Again tells the story of an aspiring musician (Knightley) who teams up with a struggling record executive (Ruffalo) to help her launch her career. Violet, Ruffalo’s daughter, is played by Hailee Steinfeld, and she uses music to heal their connection. The picture received critical acclaim and was nominated for an Academy Award.
