Kat Dennings, born Katherine Victoria Litwack on June 13, 1986, in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, is the kind of actress who commands attention with just a glance—and keeps it with razor-sharp wit and fearless charm.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Dennings brings brainy charisma to Darcy Lewis in Thor (2011), Thor: The Dark World (2013), WandaVision (2021), Thor: Love and Thunder (2022), and the animated What If...? series (2021), making science cool—and never backing down from chaos.
