The actress captivated fans in movies like "Foxy Brown" and "Coffy" during the "blaxploitation" era of cinema.

Grier got a career revival when Quentin Tarantino cast her in the lead role of "Jackie Brown."

The 63-year old has a martial arts movie coming out in November called "The Man with the Iron Fists."

Grier's memoir is being turned into a biopic. The lead role hasn't been cast yet.
