Years active | 1976–present |
The filmography of Jessica Lange comprises both film and television roles. In a career spanning forty years, she has appeared in overall thirty-three feature films, having two currently in post-production, seven TV movies and two series.[1] In addition to theater arts,[2] her name was credited in other works of non-fiction, such as documentaries.[1] According to Box Office Mojo, thirty-one of Lange's feature films have grossed a total of approximately $1 billion worldwide with an average of $33.74 million per title.[3][n. 1]
Lange's acting debut in the monster movie King Kong (1976),[1] for which she received her first Golden Globe Award,[5][6] was followed by a role in the musical All That Jazz (1979); her second output delivered in the 1970s.
Throughout the 1980s, she starred in ten major motion pictures,[1] five of which earned her Academy Award nominations[7] and four at Golden Globes,[5] respectively.[n. 2] Apart from the winner on both ceremonies Tootsie (1982),[5][7] her other notable roles featured the films Frances (1982), Country (1984), or so far also her only work co-produced by herself, Sweet Dreams (1985), and Music Box (1989). Simultaneously, the actress received her initial exposure on stage in the summer theater production Angel on My Shoulder (1980),[2] as well made her debut on TV, starring in a remake of the Tennessee Williams' play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1984); her only contribution to the medium over that period of time.[1]
The subsequent decade, Lange was assigned a line-up of additional leads of comparable quality, appearing in ten theatrical films and three television productions. Among others, her 1990s titles included Men Don't Leave (1990), O Pioneers! (1992), Blue Sky (1994), A Streetcar Named Desire (1995), A Thousand Acres (1997), and Titus (1999).[1] This time around, the actress was nominated for one Oscar which she won,[7] four Golden Globes, winning two,[5] and an Emmy; her first nomination ever.[10] She would also receive additional nominations for some of then newly established accolades, such as were the Screen Actors Guild Award[11][12] and Satellite Award;[13][n. 3] one per each. Beside gaining wider recognition on TV that featured her one-off voice role made for the medium,[1] she reprised her role in another play by Williams for the Broadway's stage Ethel Barrymore Theatre in 1992; sealed by a Theater World Award[2] and an Outer Critics Circle Award-nomination for Best Actress – Play, respectively.[17]
As she reached fifties, her screen career began to decline. In exchange though, Lange found a rapport most notably on TV. As a result of starring in three productions, such as Normal (2003), Sybil (2007) and Grey Gardens (2009),[1] she extended her accolades with next two Golden Globe nominations,[5] and so did she for Emmy with winning one eventually.[10] She would also earn additional two Satellite Awards nominations,[13] and a SAG Award's; her second nomination.[11][18][n. 4] On screen however, the actress became a subject of secondary roles. Aside from Bonneville (2006) or her only lead part from the 2000s, she would mainly join supporting casts for another six major films following the millennium.[1] Alongside, she thus continued to develop her stage credits on two separate occasions at least; on Long Day's Journey into Night (2000) at the London's Lyric Theatre,[2] recognized with a Laurence Olivier Award nomination,[21] and on The Glass Menagerie (2005), back again for the Ethel Barrymore Theatre in New York.[2] In 2009, she contributed to a soundtrack composed by Rachel Portman as a lead vocalist.[22]

In the most recent decade, Lange has revitalized her performing craft by starring in FX's horror anthology, American Horror Story (2011–2015). The show has exposed her work to a whole new generation of TV viewers, earning her four Emmy nominations, of which she won two,[10][24] four Golden Globe nominations, earning one win,[5][25] three SAG award nominations,[26] winning her first,[26][27] and two Satellite Award nominations, having won a special achievement category.[13][28] Among others, she has also received four nominations for the Critics' Choice TV Awards, earning one trophy,[29] as well four nominations for the Saturn Award's,[30] and one People's Choice Awards nomination.[31] On screen in the 2010s, she initially followed with three supporting roles; in the romantic drama The Vow (2012), the erotic thriller In Secret (2013) and a remake of the 1974 crime film The Gambler in 2014.[32] Her most recent productions include the dramedy web series Horace and Pete (2016) and the road trip comedy film Wild Oats (2016). On stage, Lange revised her 2000 role in a Broadway adaptation of Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey into Night,[33] produced by Ryan Murphy.[34] Once the play concludes, Lange plans to retire from acting.[35][36]
