Marisa Tomei
Academy Award-Winning Actress; Known for Her Roles in "My Cousin Vinny," and "Spiderman: Far From Home"
Marisa Tomei continues to bridge the gap between rich, dramatic performances and smart, comedic turns. Whether working with large studios or independent houses, Marisa consistently brings her independent spirit to every project with which she is involved. Tomei won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Mona Lisa Vito in "My Cousin Vinny." Tomei subsequently earned Academy Awards nominations for her performances in In the Bedroom and The Wrestler.
Tomei was a student at Boston University when she was cast in the part of a teenager in the soap opera, "As the World Turns" (1984). She made her movie debut in a bit part in Garry Marshall’s social comedy, "The Flamingo Kid (1984)". She also worked in theatre in New York City. Tomei portrayed the college roommate of the character played by Lisa Bonet in the first season (1987–88) of the television sitcom "A Different World," a spinoff of The Cosby Show, and before being cast in "My Cousin Vinny."
Tomei won notice for her performance in Sidney Lumet’s "Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead" (2007), and she earned a third Oscar nomination for her role in Darren Aronofsky’s "The Wrestler" (2008). Her later films included "The Lincoln Lawyer" (2011), "Crazy, Stupid, Love." (2011), and "The Big Short" (2015). Tomei had a recurring part in 2015 in the TV series "Empire", and she played Peter Parker’s guardian, Aunt May, in such box-office hits as "Spider-Man: Homecoming" (2017), "Spider-Man: Far from Home" (2019), and "Spider-Man: No Way Home" (2021). In 2020, she appeared in Judd Apatow’s dramedy, "The King of Staten Island."
