Rose Byrne Instagram – @fullyrosebyrne is queen of the curveball.
In ‘If I Had Legs I’d Kick You,’ Byrne comes undone as Linda, a mother whose stresses are piling up exponentially. The film is an ideal vehicle for the versatile actress, who has anchored franchises from ‘Insidious’ to ‘Peter Rabbit.’ Many of her most iconic roles exude cool and control, but as Linda, she is fully embracing the mess—resulting in the first Oscar buzz of her career. “It’s never happened before, and I feel emotional about it,” she says. “It’s been a long road.”
For ELLE’s 2025 #WomeninHollywood issue, Byrne reflects on her pivotal career moment, motherhood, and the famous actor that stunned her in an audition. Read the full interview at the link in bio. #ELLEWIH
