Viola Hastings

Viola Hastings
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: She's the Man (2006)
  • Actor/Actress: Amanda Bynes
  • Position Portrayed: Forward
  • Played For:: Illyria
  • Why you should vote:: In the film, the character proved her point.
  • Why you should not vote:: We aren’t sure that a Shakespearian adaptation works for our Hall.
  • Before Amanda Bynes went completely nuts, she was the sweetheart of family friendly romantic teen coms. One of her most popular roles was as Viola Hastings, a Soccer player who wanted to test her skills by competing with the boys. She of course posed as a boy to compete, and the standard clichés occurred. Unlike her twitter account, there was a happy ending here, and this was not the worst Shakespearean adaptation ever done. It was far from the best though.
