Julia Stiles: Television
Stiles' work on television has been more limited. After two appearances on the PBS series Ghostwriter in 1993 and 1994, she appeared as a guest star on the medical drama Chicago Hope
. She has been seen in two made-for-TV movies. In Before Women Had Wings (1997) on CBS, she played opposite
Ellen Burstyn and
Oprah Winfrey in an adaptation of the novel by Connie May Fowler. Marcia Ross, the film's casting director, told Jeffrey Ressner "she projects an intelligent depth, she's not girlish, and she'll easily grow into adult roles."
Stiles also played a teenage girl who finds herself pregnant and runs away from her unforgiving father, played by Bill Smitrovich, in NBC's miniseries
The 60's (1999), a film Caryn James dismissed as "conspicuously idiotic." Stiles was the public face of the film, NBC using her face, painted with a peace sign and the American flag, in its advertising and on the cover of the soundtrack album.
On March 17, 2001, Stiles hosted Saturday Night Live and eight days later introduced a music nominee at the 73rd Academy Awards. She returned to Saturday Night Live on May 5, 2001 in a cameo as President George W. Bush's daughter Jenna. MTV profiled her in its
Diary series in 2003 and she was Punk'd by
Ashton Kutcher in the spring of 2004.
