Other roles quickly followed, including "Kalifornia" with Brad Pitt, and Lasse Hallstrom’s "What’s Eating Gilbert Grape" with Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp. She stirred up screen controversy in the Oliver Stone satire, "Natural Born Killers," with Woody Harrelson, Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Downey, Jr., then re-teamed with Leonardo DiCaprio in "The Basketball Diaries." She went on to star opposite Steve Martin in the Nora Ephron comedy "Mixed Nuts," with Ralph Fiennes in the futuristic "Strange Days," and with George Clooney in the vampire tale "From Dusk Til’ Dawn." She also starred opposite Shirley MacLaine in "The Evening Star" and with Giovanni Ribisi in "The Other Sister," directed by Garry Marshall.
Lewis recently appeared in a trio of diverse movie roles: the western "The Way of the Gun," co-starring Benecio Del Toro and James Caan; Susan Siedelman’s "Gaudi Afternoon," and the independent film "Room to Rent."
