Moore’s work in Game Change also earned her a Primetime Emmy Award.

In addition to the above, Moore is well known to audiences around the world for her memorable performances in films including The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Parts 1 & 2 (2014 and 2015, respectively); Maggie’s Plan (2015); Maps to the Stars (2014); Don Jon (2013); Carrie (2013); Crazy, Stupid, Love.

This year, Moore re-teamed with her Far from Heaven director Todd Haynes for the American drama Wonderstruck, based on the 2011 novel of the same title by Brian Selznick. The film was presented in competition at the 70th Cannes Film Festival earlier this year and opens in the U.S. in October.
