45 | !!Tropes associated with Emma Roberts: |
46 | * ActorAllusion: In an episode of ''Scream Queens'' she makes a Nancy Drew joke to Grace. Emma herself has played Nancy Drew in a movie. |
47 | * CareerResurrection: ''Scream 4'' was what made her a truly desirable actress again after ''Film/HotelForDogs'' did not do much for. |
48 | * TheDanza: Last name variety. She plays Jill Roberts in ''Scream 4''. |
49 | * DyeHard: Naturally brunette but is best known as a blonde. |
50 | * {{Futureshadowing}}: As it turns out, ''{{Film/Scream 4}}'' wasn't the first time Emma don the Ghostface mask, as a matter of fact Emma worn it when she was ''[[https://www.instagram.com/p/CAI5boLgxyf/ 7 years old]]'', which is now retroactively viewed as a sign of what role out of many others she would be destined to play in her acting career. |
51 | * GenreKiller: ''Film/HotelForDogs'' marks the swan song for Roberts' family-friendly image and NiceGirl roles, while ''Film/{{Scream 4}}'' gave birth to the darker but spunkier Roberts we have recently grown to be familiar with, therefore rebooting her acting career from that point on. Emma would not return to the family genre until ''WesternAnimation/{{Uglydolls}}''. |
52 | * PlayingAgainstType: At first her playing a crazed fame whore in ''{{Film/Scream 4}}'' was a surprise twist. Since then, Emma has played a BrattyHalfPint in ''Wild Child'' and {{Alpha Bitch}}es in ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory'' and ''Series/{{Scream Queens|2015}}''. So it's not quite as surprising anymore to a point by now it made her past child actress resume a forgotten period of her career. ''Nerve'' seems to be a return to sympathetic characters. |
53 | * RealitySubtext: She is a huge Music/{{Jojo}} fan, which helps add to the dependency her character Claire feels to Jojo's Hailey in ''{{Film/Aquamarine}}''. |
54 | * RomanceOnTheSet: Began a seven-year relationship with Creator/EvanPeters after they met on the set of ''Film/AdultWorld''. |
55 | * ThoseTwoActors: She spends a lot of working time with Creator/HaydenPanettiere although they've only made one film together so far; on the other hand, she's also made three films with Creator/RoryCulkin (''Lymelife'', ''Twelve'' and the aforementioned ''Scream 4''). She also stars with Creator/BillieLourd in ''Scream Queens'', ''Billionaire Boys Club'' and three seasons of ''American Horror Story''. |
56 | * TomHanksSyndrome: During her ''Series/{{Unfabulous}}'' years, Emma did family-friendly films. After the series ended, she went to a mature and darker route with films such as ''Film/WildChild'' and ''Film/{{Scream 4}}''. |
57 | * TypeCasting: In her teen star days, she was likely to play a PluckyGirl or some kind of Woobie. Since entering her twenties, she's carved out a niche playing various {{Alpha Bitch}}es. As a result, Emma's past good girl roles that stemmed from since she was a kid has largely been forgotten and overshadowed by Emma's recent AlphaBitch work that audiences have grown used to by now. |
58 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: She was offered the role of Comicbook/HarleyQuinn in ''{{Film/Suicide Squad|2016}}'' before Creator/MargotRobbie was cast, but turned it down due to filming commitments to ''{{Series/Scream Queens|2015}}''. The producers of 2021's ''[[Film/Dune2021 Dune]]'' wanted Roberts for Princess Irulan, but she wasn't free. |
