Anna Kendrick has been on fire (not literally), let’s say…for the past two years. The 26-year-old actress has scored some of the hottest roles and not to mention, paired with some of Hollywood’s leading men including George Clooney, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and next year – Jake Gyllenhaal.

Kendrick is a respectable young actress and we look forward to seeing more of her accomplishments every year. Her “50/50″ film, which is currently in theatres, is a phenomenal movie with an amazing cast. A must watch for those who yearn to laugh and maybe even cry.

The actress shot our October/November cover with photographer Christopher Kilkus and looked red hot. Check out some of the outtakes below as well as the video.
