You can’t really beat Emma Stone’s track record so far. “Ghosts of Girlfriend’s Past” aside, the 21-year-old actress has displayed a wealth of talent since her debut in “Superbad” and starring roles in “The House Bunny” and “Zombieland.” Still, when the logo for Screen Gems appeared before trailers for her new picture “Easy A,” many no doubt assumed this was another forgettable teen comedy from Sony Pictures’ genre label. Newsflash: anyone who dismisses “Easy” before seeing it will be making a huge mistake.

Premiering at next month’s Toronto International Film Festival (no joke), “Easy” finds Stone playing Olive, an Ojai high schooler who isn’t a loser, but hardly on most of her peers’ radar. Things take a turn when she’s unintentionally pressured by her best friend Alyson Michalka (the upcoming CW series “Hellcats”) to falsely admit she lost her virginity with an imaginary college friend of her brothers. When the school’s #1 Christian teen (Amanda Bynes) overhears the gossip, Olive’s reputation changes within minutes thanks to the power of the almighty text.

Reviews are embargoed on “Easy” until its Toronto premiere, but anyone who suggests the film could stand equally next to such teen comedy classics as “Clueless,” “Mean Girls” and the aforementioned “Superbad” wouldn’t be high on crack (really). Eight new clips are now available for “Easy” and they provide an excellent sneak peek of just how smart and contemporary the flick really is. Enjoy.

“Climax”
Thomas Haden Church plays a “cool” teacher Olive and her friends respect because he obviously talks to them as equals.

“Mascots”
Meet “Gossip Girl’s” Penn Badgley better known as Woodchuck Todd in “Easy” for reasons made clear after this scene.

“Higher Power”
Amanda Bynes “retired” from acting after shooting “Easy.” Perhaps she got too deep into her character? • Read full story…

On April Fool’s Day, tween star Justin Bieber “took over” the Funny or Die website, appearing in several skits, poking fun at his image and spoofing popular YouTube videos with bits such as “Bieber Goes to the Dentist.”

Now months later, Bieber Fever has begun to wear off. So who will be the next star to dominate the comedic website?

“Easy A” actress Emma Stone, who says she’ll soon film some sketches for the site.

“We’re doing a Funny or Die thing;  I think I’m taking over the website. I’m flipped out,” the 21-year-old gushed during an interview this week in Beverly Hills while promoting her upcoming comedy, out Sept. 17.

Stone — who has had supporting roles in smaller comedies such as “The House Bunny,” “The Rocker” and “Superbad” — finally gets the chance to show off her funny girl chops with “Easy A.” She stars as a brassy teenager who mistakenly becomes known for her sexual prowess.

Asked how similar her Funny or Die stint will be to the Bieber takeover, Stone said, “I’m not sure if we’re doing the exact same thing, but I know there’s a live stream interview and I’m taking over the Twitter. We are filming some stuff, but I’m not sure what,” said the actress, who has now returned to Mississippi, where she’s in the middle of a four-month shoot for the DreamWorks drama ”The Help.”

On Thursday, she said, she was supposed to have a day off from promoting “Easy A” and shooting the new film — until the Funny or Die crew decided to head to the South to film with her.

EMMA STONE
Age: 21
Apparently, you really can start an acting career by appearing on a reality show. Emma (or Emily, as she went by then) appeared on VH1′s “In Search of the New Partridge Family” at age 15 and won a role in the sitcom remake. They only made one episode, but it did lead to more roles on TV. “Superbad” was her introduction to the movies, and she followed it with more hit comedies like “The House Bunny” and “Zombieland.” Coming soon is “Easy A,” where she has the lead role as a high schooler who tells a few white lies and gets branded with a bad reputation. Next year she’ll take a dramatic turn in the movie version of the bestselling novel “The Help.”
