Since making her big debut in Mermaids in 1990, Christina has been relatively active in her work, but the actress has had much of her releases in indie films, which are categorized by their low-budget production and often scarce revenue.

Regardless of her slew of credits in independent movies, Ricci has contributed her share in mainstream films and has been a part of major blockbusters. The actress's combined films have grossed $1.1 billion so far. Ricci's early-found fame in the industry catapulted her into essential roles in her teens. After the box office success of The Addams Family and its sequel Adams Family Values, Ricci went on to star and appeared in hits like The Ice Storm, Buffalo '66, Pecker, and The Opposite of Sex, which garnered her critical acclaim and a Golden Globe nomination.

Despite trying her hands on different genres and portraying versatility, Christina had already been typecasted as the favorite go-to actress to play dark, edgy roles. She starred alongside Johnny Depp in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, a box office dud, but the second time was a charm when she reunited with Depp in the gothic horror film Sleepy Hollow; the movie grossed $207 million. Christina's acclaim in the film continued with 200 Cigarettes, The Man Who Cried, Prozac Nation, and The Laramie Project.
