Robin Wright plays an actress who agrees to be "scanned" for animated roles in The Congress
My Girl Anna Chlumsky is all grown up!
Remember My Girl? Having fallen off the radar in the nineties, Anna Chlumsky is back with a major role in a new HBO TV series.
Anna Chlumsky then and now
It's been over twenty years since My Girl was released. While Macaulay Culkin went on to become perhaps the best known child star ever, Anna Chulmsky appeared in the film's sequel in 1994 but bigger roles seemed to evade her.
After years of minor TV appearances the actress, now aged 31, is starring in the new HBO series 'Veep'.

Macaulay Culkin and Anna Chlumsky in My Girl
Macaulay Culkin and Anna Chlumsky were only 10 when My Girl was made. And weren't they adorable? Culkin was already familiar with fame having appeared in Home Alone in 1990.
After My Girl 2, Chlumsky didn't make many more major appearance as a teenager, getting beaten to the daughter role in Jurassic Park by Ariana Richards.
She's kept up a stream of TV work in the last decade, however, and now her return appears to have been cemented with a major role in Veep: an HBO drama centred around a senator (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) who finds herself surprised by a new job as Vice-President of The United States.
Chlumsky will play Dreyfus' Chief Of Staff Amy in the new series - a role described as 'responsible but insecure' by HBO.
