Aubrey Plaza
Aubrey Plaza rose to fame playing Leslie Knope's (Amy Poehler) sardonic yet sweet protege on NBC's Parks and Recreation, which ended its seven-season run in February.
And in Elle's 30th Anniversary issue, the 31-year-old star opened up about moving on from her beloved character as she headed into a busy lineup of movies, including Dirty Grandpa and Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates - both alongside Zac Efron.
'I will miss playing April Ludgate for my whole life,' she admitted, adding: 'But I'm definitely ready to move on. Rght now, it's been really fun to play these other characters.'

The 'This is 30' issue also celebrated women in their thirties, though Aubrey admitted she 'was not one of those people' who embraced reaching that memorable birthday.
'I feel like I'm 16 still and like I know nothing,' she said, comparing herself to Britney Spears' 2001 song I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman.
She continued: 'I still feel really young, but I feel like I've had enough life experience to not be a total a**hole, and I'm liking it I guess.'
Whether or not the star was ready to embrace it, she certainly wears it well, as is evident in her and close friend Anna Kendrick's stunning photograph in the magazine's spread.
