Scott Porter Jason Street. Taylor Kitsch Tim Riggins. Adrianne Palicki Tyra Collette. GI Joe: Retaliation starred Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in the main role and would bring in even more money than the first film in the franchise.
However, critics found the movie to be quite lacking, and the third installment in the series has been stuck in production for years now. Unfortunately for Palicki, Paramount is looking for the next film in the franchise to be a reboot that will apparently focus on Snake Eyes, a character played by Ray Park in the first two movies.
Adapted from the best-selling book of the same name, the sitcom About a Boy aired 33 episodes on NBC before getting canceled in May The show follows successful songwriter and bachelor Will Freeman, played by David Walton, as his carefree life is turned upside down when a single mother and her year-old son move in next door. Samantha Lake, the recurring love interest for Walton's character. Palicki used the experience to highlight her ability to play a romantic lead, as well as show off her comedic timing in a way she was only able to do in her two-film stint as Holly Rocket.

Before the Keanussance was in full bloom, Keanu Reeves' big Hollywood comeback hinged on the success or failure of 's John Wick. Of course, John Wick was a massive hit that has spun off into a full-blown franchise — it's spawned sequels , a video game and a television series — and Palicki got in on the ground floor.
Palicki's role as fellow assassin Ms. Perkins was apparently supposed to be played by a man, but the creative team behind John Wick , Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, decided it would work better as a woman.
So naturally, Palicki ran with it. In an interview with The Film Stage , Palicki talked about how the role was originally pretty underwritten, which offered her the chance to collaborate on the character's backstory. As she explained, she decided that Perkins and Wick "were likely friendly before he got married, and maybe this isn't the first time they've fought like this. Her character, also known by the moniker " Mockingbird ," has been around in Marvel Comics since , though Palicki's take on the super-spy inspired a popularity that Morse had never seen before.
In fact, the first comic books series solely based on Mockingbird arrived in to rave reviews. Palicki became one of the principal cast members halfway through the second season of the show, and she continued in that starring role until her character was written out of the series near the end of the third season.
The reason Morse and fellow Agents of S. ABC ordered a pilot episode for the spin-off, featuring Palicki in the lead role, but didn't develop it as a series. Sadly, Palicki's character has never returned to Agents of S. Adrianne Palicki was having a rough go of it for a while.
