Let's only include well known stars who began their careers in a horror film and eventually became highly successful. And it doesn't necessarily have to be their first ever film role either, like for example Kevin Bacon's first full length feature was actually Animal House, which was before he played in Friday the 13th. Just any early horror role from when they were young and before they became really famous. Some of these likely even led them to be discovered and kickstart their careers into stardom.
Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween) Kevin Bacon (Friday the 13th) Johnny Depp (Nightmare on Elm Street) Crispin Glover (Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter) Patrick Dempsey (The Stuff) George Clooney (Return to Horror High) Brad Pitt (Cutting Class) Leonardo DiCaprio (Critters 3) Jennifer Aniston (Leprechaun) Renee Zellweger (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation) Matthew McConaughey (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation) Paul Rudd (Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers) Charlize Theron (Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest) Naomi Watts (Children of the Corn IV: The Gathering) Joseph Gordon-Levitt (H20: 20 Years Later) Katherine Heigl (Bride of Chucky) Amy Adams (Psycho Beach Party) Justin Long (Jeepers Creepers) Jessica Biel (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) Ryan Reynolds (The Amityville Horror)
Any others?
