![]() ![]() “Idle Hands” would become a quirky cut favorite that had many asking.who is this beautiful girl and where can we see more of her? Jessica has additionally granted us some great genre roles over the years (which we always make a point to call out) including the horror pieces: “The Eye”, “Paranoid”, “Idle Hands” and “ The Veil“. Getting a pretty early start in her career, Alba would play the character of Max Guevera in the Dark Angel Series, a precursor to her ability in carrying action scenes and parts quite well. She not only knows how to keep us entertained while looking good doing it, but has the nicest smile in Hollywood! ![]() If you had any doubts about her on screen sex appeal then look no further than her roles in the movie “ Sin City” where she played the character of Nancy (or as Sartana in 2010’s Machete). ![]() Her beauty, charm, and natural acting talents present with grace and execution like no other. Max is the latest in a string of female action heroes on TV, joining Gellar, Lucy Lawless' Xena, Tia Carrere's adventuresome Sydney Fox of "Relic Hunter," and others.Jessica Alba has long been a screen favorite for many reasons. Watch "Dark Angel" and one thinks of another young heroine with super powers: Sarah Michelle Gellar's Buffy Summers of the WB's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," which airs an hour before Alba's series on Tuesdays. Alba, whose father is of Mexican descent, worked out, trained with a martial arts instructor and huddled with a teacher on how to ride a motorcycle to mirror Max's swagger and confidence. She also wanted Max - whose abilities include super strength and enhanced speed -to convey a certain physical confidence. "They didn't want me to have to say things that didn't feel right to me," explained Alba, whose character is also 19. Many of the phrases Alba usually says off-camera find their way into scripts. But it's sort of like an extension of certain things about my personality in an exaggerated way."įor example, Alba admits she's as sarcastic as Max. "And they wrote the show around my personality. "After they hired me, I sat down with them and talked to them about ideas, and talked to them about the character," said Alba. Max gets her wise-guy lip from Alba, who was attracted to the role from a three-page outline written by producer Charles Eglee, who created the series with Cameron. He is helping Max find the others who escaped with her, in return for Max taking on Logan's mission of helping those in need. Says so on the T-shirt," Max smirks to Logan Cale (Michael Weatherly), a renegade cyber-journalist who fights corruption and an oppressive government. Max isn't as shy about getting into trouble as such other television fugitives as, well, "The Fugitive's" Richard Kimble or David Banner of "The Incredible Hulk," so she's more interesting to watch. The authorities use cameras mounted on hovercraft to monitor citizens. She navigates a world where an electronic "pulse" has created a post-apocalyptic America with sabotaged computers and a depression forcing many to live as squatters in abandoned buildings. Now Max is a guarded but assertive bicycle messenger - whose special powers are great for cat burglary - in Seattle. Alba plays her as a feisty and independent woman who refuses to hide in the shadows, even though she's being hunted after escaping a military facility with several of her biologically manipulated "siblings" some 10 years before. "It's great, because I have so much freedom."Īlba's television credits include "Beverly Hills, 90210" "Chicago Hope," "The Secret World of Alex Mack" and "Flipper." She has appeared in the films "Never Been Kissed" and "Idle Hands." She'll next be seen in the movie "The Sleeping Dictionary."Īttractive and magnetic as Max, Alba is making all the right choices for her character. ![]()
