Where have we seen Natasha Lyonne before?

In 1986 at the age of 7, she had a small movie role opposite Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep in the comedy drama "Heartburn". By the time she hit her teens, Lyonne was already appearing in a diverse lineup of feature films, tackling lighthearted comedy in "Dennis the Menace" (as Polly the babysitter) alongside more nuanced roles in films like "Everyone Says I Love You (playing Woody Allen’s fictional daughter), as well as leading a star-studded cast in the 1998 dramatic comedy "Slums of Beverly Hills".

She went to play Jessica, dishing out seasoned romance advice in the "American Pie" comedy films with more mainstream success in 2001’s "Scary Movie 2" (as Megan Voorhees). There were also roles in films like "Zig Zag", "Party Monster" and "The Grey Zone".

She made more fans as inmate Nicky Nichols in "Orange is the New Black" and hung around the "Portlandia" comedy-verse for a stint of funny guest spots during the show’s later seasons, right before striking comedy-drama paydirt as Nadia Vulvokov — the time-challenged star at the center of "Russian Doll" (a series she also co-created alongside Leslye Headland and Amy Poehler).
