Regina Hall began appearing in commercials at age 26, and then made the giant leap into movies.
Her fame came with her role in the comedy-horror spoof Scary Movie. Her recurring role in Scary Movie and the sequel Scary Movie 2 exhibited the 30-year-old’s ability to maintain her youthful appearance, as she portrayed the high-school-aged Brenda Meeks.
Her first film role was in the 1999 film “The Best Man”. She was in the movie Love and Basketball, which also starred close friend Sanaa Lathan. In 2001, Hall’s list of credits grew to include her first television role, as Corretta Lipp on the prime-time drama Ally McBeal, which was a recurring role for several episodes.
In 2001 Scary Movie 2 was released, in addition to the Mandel Holland comedy The Other Brother, featuring Hall as Vicki. One year later, she starred in the action-drama Paid in Full, directed by Charles Stone III.
Later she starred in films such as Malibu’s Most Wanted, Scary Movie 3, The Honeymooners, and First Sunday.
