[@Megumi_Bandicoot]

I always remembered her in “Dollhouse”. It’s always sad when actors just disappear overtime.

[@brontiq]

Dollhouse was amazing. I was sooo sorry it ended

[@rc59191]

Happened to a lot of 90s actors that were considered teenage heartthrobs.

[@Mr.Magic4ever]

Eliza is my soul sister. We were born same day, month, year and time of day. I've always loved her! She was amazing as Faith in Buffy and outstanding as Echo in Dollhouse!

[@daga11]

Check her out in a great series, Banshee. Although she's only in one season.

[@4657250]

This actress has a unique charisma, a combination of beauty and toughness. Honestly, if it was played right, she would've been "Jessica Jones". I swear sometimes I imagining her playing the role instead of Krysten Ritter. I was thrilled when I read that she became a mother. I am s happy for her. I wish her the best of luck.

[@josephcelestine1945]

ROFL! NOT!

[@edwardgill1882]

Truth be told, while I've always found her beautiful, I never was that thrilled with her acting ability. That is until I saw her in Dollhouse. She's quite brilliant it turns out. I'm going to look up some more about her but it wouldn't surprise if she's as smart as Mayim Bialik or Danica McKellar.

[@Cytron1515]

To me she'll always be Arnold Schwarzenegger's daughter in True Lies, Faith in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and She-Hulk in Hulk and the Agents of SMASH. Speaking of She-Hulk I would have loved to have seen her picked to play the live-action version of Jennifer Walters. Don't get me wrong. I'm sure Tatiana Maslany is a good actress and will indeed make a good Jennifer Walters but Eliza Dushku would have been phenomenal at the role.

[@Food4thought1234]

Well It makes sense why she still looks great for her age. She’s Albanian! I really wished she would have taken the spin off show on Buffy. She was my favorite on the show. I’m just now watching Wrong Turn, and falling in love all over agin. I really hope she gets a good role in something. I miss seeing her on screen.

[@nanadecarvalho7840]

Me too.

[@snookanookazoo3268]

Ana de Armas star of Deep Water looks so much like Eliza Dushku that I HAD TO SEE IF THEY WERE THE SAME PERSON.Looks like Hollywood still wants a Eliza Dushku.

[@shreenjandutta]

I loved her from the moment I saw her in Wrong Turn I think her and Desmond Harrington made a terrific chemistry in that movie

[@jamesgriego1089]

She is an amazing actress, when I first saw the first movie she was in, "LAST NIGHT, I said back then that she is going to be a big star and she has proven me right, also in the movie was a 12 year old Catherine Hygal, another great career that started back then, thanks for the great coverage of this iconic star!

[@ebogar42]

But she was never a big star. Her movies did alright. Her TV shows did alright. Good B list movie star.

We could've had a third Buffyverse spinn-off about Faith?! Why did she turn it down?!

[@beaudel2730]

I know right? She was my fave.

[@user-dx9dx9hu4e]

She wanted to try something different. And she didn't want Faith to replace Buffy.

My childhood crush. Always thought she was a babe. Good to see nothings changed

[@rydbthatsme]

Some people make the money and don’t want the fame.

[@BloodofaFool]

Not doing the Faith standalone show was a bad call. We barely know anything about Faith and she's such a complex character.. I think a lot of it was because Joss wasn't going to be writing it but considering she went on to do Tru Calling and Dollhouse.. I really think a Faith show wouldve been incredible and successful

[@JavaughnJPorter]

Agree really enjoyed her character

[@adriankelly507]

I still have a huge crush on her 😍

[@cplineberger]

Shallow and I apologize , but...She is BEAUTIFUL.

[@jennyferrios245]

I liked her in Dollhouse and Buffy. It would be nice to see her career continue in acting.

[@jillnichole5595]

That night was and still is one of my all time favorite movies. Then buffy which I still LOVE. I was so excited when she showed up in buffy

[@markmedrano2627]

Shes so so GORGEOUS 😍

[@StevenSmith-mk5fg]

She became synonymous with the hot teenage slasher/thriller genre. This is based heavily on looks and so when her looks began to fade, so did he career as she struggled to break out of that genre. Sarah Michelle Gellar is another example of this.

[@JackAShepherd]

Looks began to fade? She hasn't aged a day, she just couldn't continue doing the same character over and over again... Not an actress with much range 😬

[@pnwperson]

Smg has an Emmy

[@caramelbilquees]

No I think it's just coz she was so great as Faith that it kind of type casted her, and the public loved Faith and didn't want to see Eliza as anything else. She would only be popular in a Faith Type Role. Like Action, being an Action Hero, GI Jane, Tomb Raider Lara Croft would of BLOWN UP HER CAREER

[@deusvlad2.083]

Lets not forget her best voice role in saints row 2 the video game. one of the best games ever to be made on this Earth. As Shaundi best voice ever.

Her and Dua Lipa are some beautiful Albanian women

[@user-dx9dx9hu4e]

I didn't know Dua is Albanian too.

[@beaudel2730]

I love eliza dushku specially as Faith and Tru. She also went back to school. And when I read her FB post about what happened to her at the set of True Lies I was heartbroken and I can never watch that movie the same again. And hearing what happened at the set of Bull thats just not cool. I love her in Bull but I can understand why she left.

[@kevinrivera6695]

Eliza Dushku And Eiza González should do a Action movie or female cop buddy movie together

[@miffedcuttlefish6139]

Buffy, Dollhouse and Wrong Turn is what she'll always be known for for me. 💜

[@ChristoferKelly]

Maybe because that's what she's known for by everyone... 🤔

[@miffedcuttlefish6139]

@@ChristoferKelly sure. People that know of her. People like my sister however have no idea who she is because she didn't grow up with Dushku as a prominent actress.
