Kickapoo grad to attend movie premiere in Springfield


Hollywood actress and Kickapoo High School graduate Adrienne Wilkinson will attend the premiere screening of her latest independent movie, "Reflections," during the Show-Me International Film Festival downtown, being held Feb. 15-17. Wilkinson is perhaps best known for playing Eve on the TV series "Xena: Warrior Princess."
 
She plays the lead role in "Reflections," a sci-fi thriller that also includes TV actors from "24," "The Sopranos," "Deadwood," "Big Love" and the movies "Ghost Rider" and "Kill Bill." Wilkinson will appear with the movie's director, Barry Caldwell.
 
Wilkinson's other recent project is her appearance as Maris Brood, the last female Jedi in "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed," a motion-capture video game that tells the story of 18 years between the two movie trilogies.
 
 Her character also has been fashioned as a doll -- making her the second Kickapoo grad to have her likeness come out as a toy. The other was of actor Lucas Grabeel of "High School Musical" fame.
