Holidays, starring Holly Hunter.
In 1997 Foster returned to acting in the alien-encounter film Contact, an adaptation of a 1985 science-fiction novel by astronomer Carl Sagan. In 1999 she played the
lead role in Anna and the King (1999), a new version of the Anna Leonowens story, previously filmed as Anna and the King of Siam (1946) and The King and I (1956).
As she moved into her 40s, Foster starred in the thrillers Panic Room (2002), Flightplan (2005), Inside Man (2006, directed by Spike Lee), and The Brave One (2007).
