Meg Ryan as Sally Albright in "When Harry Met Sally..."Columbia Pictures
Meg Ryan has starred in dozens of movies throughout her career, including many iconic romantic comedies.
Some of her best known rom-coms include "When Harry Met Sally" and "You've Got Mail."
Whether she's bickering with Tom Hanks in the checkout line of a Zabar's in "You've Got Mail," or proudly faking an orgasm over a pastrami sandwich during a lunch with Billy Crystal in "When Harry Met Sally," Meg Ryan is the undisputed queen of romantic comedies.
Ryan has appeared in nearly a dozen romantic comedies throughout her career. She later took a bit of a break from rom-coms and acting in general. She returns to the genre in the 2023 romantic comedy "What Happens Later" (which she also directed and co-wrote), starring opposite David Duchovny.
