The One Battle After Another star has the range.by John KennedyBuzzFeed ContributorFacebookPinterestLink Hear ye, hear ye! We are gathered here today to praise a national treasure who has made us laugh, cry, and cry-laugh for more than 25 years. Ladies and gents, give it up for the one and only Regina Hall! Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Golden Globes She's best known for bringing the funny in everything from Scary Movie to Girls Trip. But do not sleep on this impossibly 54-year-old actress's range, which she puts on full display in One Battle After Another. In a restrained role, Hall plays Deandra, a French 75 revolutionary who serves as one of the movie's emotional anchors. Allow me to count the ways she has distinguished herself as one of her generation's best in the biz. 1. She taught us how to be unapologetic AF in Scary Movie as Brenda Meeks. View this video on YouTube Dimension Films / Via youtube.com Regina kept hot sauce in her bag long before Beyoncé sang about it. She leaned into horror tropes and stereotypes and left us with the series' most lovable character. (Sorry, Shorty!) 2. And don't even get me started on all of the quotables she blessed us with across her four(!) Scary Movie castings. Dimension Films Ngl, I still say, "You on candid camera now!" TIL THIS DAY. 3. But she first exuded confidence and sensuality in her true debut, 1999's The Best Man. Universal Regina played an exotic dancer named Candy, giving her character depth and grace. Her first day on set, she was tasked with seducing Murch (Harold Perrineau) with a lap dance. As Terrence Howard recalls: "Everybody fell in love with Regina Hall that day." 4. She can stand out amongst an ensemble cast both on-screen. Todd Williamson / Getty Images See: Girls Trip, where Regina held her own alongside Jada Pinkett-Smith, Queen Latifah, and Tiffany Haddish. (Long live the Flosse Posse!) 5. She also does some of the greatest celeb interviews. pop_culture69 / Via tiktok.com When a junket interviewer seemingly excluded Regina from questioning, she stole the spotlight and made a point by distractingly flirting with each of her Think Like a Man costars as they spoke. This clip lives in my mind rent-free. 6. Her chemistry with Kevin Hart is unmatched. Exhibit A: About Last Night. View this video on YouTube Sony Pictures / Via youtube.com There's a reason Kevin Hart has called Regina the funniest person he's jousted with on screen. The proof is right here in this improvised scene. Have you ever seen him laugh this hard?! 7. Exhibit B: This viral quarantine-era video call. willpackerprods / Via tiktok.com In a hilariously relatable clip, Regina made us all feel a little better about our bad hair days during the COVID-19 pandemic. "Who's the pretty girl?" 8. A human barking hasn't been this funny since Coming to America. HartBeat Productions / Via tiktok.com There's a LOT going on in this Real Husbands of Hollywood clip! 9. We can never forget her two-season stint on Ally McBeal as Corretta Lipp. (C) 20th Century Fox Film Corp. via Everett Collection We needed more lawyer bae! 10. Plus, Regina brought the feels in The Hate U Give. Paras Griffin / Getty Images Her role as Lisa Carter, whose teenage daughter witnessed a police shooting, was a heavy one. But Regina carried it with the ease of a bodybuilder. 11. And she deserved Oscar consideration for this epic monologue in Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul. View this video on YouTube Movieclips/ Monkeypaw Productions / Via youtube.com Yes, this film was a side-splitting satire of megachurch culture. But this address at the end of the movie-delivered in praise mime facepaint-showed serious acting chops. Amen. 12. In the same movie, she turned around and nailed one of the best performances of Crime Mob's "Knuck If You Buck" I've ever seen. It's the range for me! View this video on YouTube Pinky Promise/Monkeypaw Productions / Via youtube.com Can you believe she had never even heard the song before filming?! 13. She's got bars of her own, too. ebbsandflow / Via tiktok.com This freestyle session with her friend and Little Costar Issa Rae finds each of them detailing the lengths they'd go for some male, uhh, attention. 14. And finally, she graced us with this semicentennial anthem for her 50th birthday.

Please join me in giving THEE Regina Hall her much-deserved props!
