Her breakout role was in the horror film parody Scary Movie (2000). The 5'4" Faris, a natural blonde, dyed her hair black for the filming of Scary Movie and Scary Movie 2, so that her character more closely resembled Neve Campbell, who played the corresponding character in Scream, the main film that Scary Movie parodied. Faris gained further popularity after she received the role of the recurring character Erica, the mother whose twin babies are adopted by Chandler and Monica Bing, in the final season of the American sitcom Friends. She also appeared in the critically acclaimed film Lost in Translation, in which she plays an actress promoting an action movie. Faris has appeared on the covers of Raygun, Playboy, Self, Cosmopolitan, and other magazines. She was listed as #57, #39, and #42 in Maxim magazine's "Hot 100" in 2004, 2009, and 2010 respectively. In 2009, she was ranked #60 in FHM's "100 Sexiest Women in the World", and ranked #96 in 2010. Ask Men featured her as #78 on "100 Most Desirable Women in the World" in 2009. In 2010, Cosmopolitan magazine named her "the Cosmo’s Fun Fearless Female of the Year" – stating that “She makes us laugh – and cringe – by pushing the limits of comedy in a way no other actress can."

Take Me Home Tonight (previously titled Kids in America) is an upcoming American retro comedy film set to be released in 2011. The film was written by the writers of That '70s Show, directed by Michael Dowse and starring an ensemble cast including Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Michelle Trachtenberg, Dan Fogler, and Demetri Martin. Shooting began on the week starting February 19, 2007, in Phoenix, Arizona. The title spawns from the Eddie Money song of the same name, also played in the theatrical trailer.The film follows the adventures of recent college graduate Matt Franklin (Topher Grace), his twin sister Wendy (Anna Faris), and his best friend Barry Nathan (Dan Fogler) as they attempt to come to a conclusion about what they should do with their lives. Matt also pursues his dream girl Tori Fredreking (Teresa Palmer) at a wild Labor Day party in 1988 by telling her that he works for Goldman Sachs when in actuality, he works at Suncoast Video. Principal photography for what was at time called Kids in America occurred in 2007, but Universal Studios shelved the project for a while. Topher Grace posited that the release of the film was delayed when the studio didn't know how to handle and promote a youth comedy film with portrayal of cocaine use, as the drug was prominent in the 1980s. Its release remained delayed until Relativity Media acquired the film. The film is scheduled to be released in the U.S. on March 4, 2011.
