Daybreak is a new series for next fall and stars an actress I really like...Victoria Pratt from Cleopatra 2025 and Mutant X.
from Sci Fi Wire:
Pratt Is Fit For Day Break
Victoria Pratt, who will star in ABC's upcoming fantasy series Day Break, told SCI FI Wire that her work as a fitness writer helped her ease into her acting career. The athletic actress has appeared in Xena: Warrior Princess and Mutant X and will now play a detective opposite Taye Diggs in Day Break, about a guy who relives the same day over and over. "I'm detective Andrea Battle, an undercover narcotics detective, and, of course, I have a few secrets," Pratt said in an interview at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour in Pasadena, Calif., last week.
Canada native Pratt got a degree in kinesiology and worked at training camps with athletes from the Winnipeg Jets and the Toronto Maple Leafs. "We would do drug testing [and] testing of firefighters to try to find suits that would help them in a fire so that they could stay in there longer and resist the heat, really, really interesting stuff," said Pratt, who also appeared in the film House of the Dead 2: Dead Aim. She was then encouraged by a friend to take an acting class while she was a writer for a women's fitness magazine.
"I took classes for two years before I had the courage to get an agent," Pratt said. "And my very first audition I ended up getting a series. It was called John Woo's Once a Thief, so it kind of happened that way. It was never something I wanted to do as a child."
Pratt said her athletic background helps her with the stamina needed for high-action series. Day Break will run for 13 weeks, beginning Nov. 15, and co-stars Moon Bloodgood, Meta Golding, Ramon Rodriguez and Adam Baldwin.
