Eliza Dushku Pilot
Eliza Dushku tries again with a comedy pilot this time, opposite Damon Wayans.

I wonder if she can do comedy? The only two comedies I saw her in, she pretty much played the exact same character she always does.

Judging by her performance on Big Bang Theory, the answer is no.
That was painful. And this show, based on Colin Cowherd, who is unfunny himself, promises to be horrible. When has a sitcom based on a real person ever been funny? Seinfeld, maybe?

The only thing I've seen her in besides Buffy was that cheerleading movie, and I was not at all impressed with her performance. Her voice and her demeanor don't really change, so to me it just looks like Faith putting on an act.

I'm floored she landed ANOTHER pilot. I guess TNT didn't pick up her other one then?

She plays the part people cast her to play - it's called "type casting". It didn't do Cary Grant's career any harm!
("Bring it On" was the cheerleader movie by the way) |

I'm a fan. All that being said, you never know. I've seen actors I never thought would do well in particular roles turn out to be awesome in those parts.

He was just Archibald Leach, after all. And you're right about people sometimes being surprising in roles. Heath Ledger as the Joker, for example. But I don't think that's going to be the case with Eliza in re: this part.

Now, I suppose one could argue that I see Faith in those movies b/c I know ED as Faith but I saw those movies first and I doubt her entire career is/was typecast based on her role as Arnold's rebellious teen daughter in True Lies. YMMV but I have yet to see her do anything that leads me to believe she is capable of more.
