Her professional movie career began in 1993, when she played her first leading role in Cyborg 2. She starred in her first Hollywood picture, Hackers (1995) which failed to make a profit at the box-office, but developed a cult following after its video release.She appeared in the 1996 Love Is All There, Mojave Moon and Foxfire.

In 1999, she starred in Pushing Tin which received a lukewarm reception from critics and Jolie's character was particularly criticized. She then appeared in The Bone Collector which grossed $151 million worldwide, but was a critical failure. Jolie next took the supporting role in Girl, Interrupted (1999), which became the "welcome-to-Hollywood coronation" for her.

Longoria landed her first television role in 2000, guest-starring in an episode of Beverly Hills, 90210. Another guest appearance in General Hospital the same year brought her big break on the popular American soap opera The Young and the Restless from 2001 to 2003. Although it lasted only two seasons, the show gave Longoria another leading star credit to her name. Following Dragnet, she starred in two ill-fated productions - Señorita Justice, a poorly received direct-to-video film, and a television film titled The Dead Will Tell. In 2004, Longoria landed a role that elevated her to the A-List. She starred as adulteress Gabrielle Solis in the worldwide break-out ABC hit Desperate Housewives. As the show became an overnight sensation, Longoria's career was well and truly launched.

Shortly after her debut on Desperate Housewives, Longoria starred in a poorly received direct-to-video film titled Carlita's Secret. In 2005, she was rewarded for her performance in Desperate Housewives when she was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy along with her co-stars. Even though neither Longoria nor any of the rest of the cast won, she was awarded the ALMA Award and named entertainer of the year. She also starred opposite Michael Douglas and Kiefer Sutherland in the 2006 thriller The Sentinel, which was her first major role in a theatrical movie. In her most recently released film, Harsh Times, she plays the character Sylvia and co-stars with actors Freddy Rodriguez and Christian Bale.
