For those new to the site, my philosophy on exactly what constitutes 'high quality' is found here. Be sure to check out all three picture galleries to your left. Katie Holmes landed the first two professional auditions of her career, resulting in her feature debut in the acclaimed "The Ice Storm" (1997) and a regular series role on the popular teen drama "Dawson's Creek" (The WB, 1998-2003). While such accomplishments are virtually unheard of in Hollywood, and may easily be written off as amazing luck, those who have witnessed her work are not likely to discount her formidable talent and ease on camera. With a promising turn as Libbets Casey, Tobey Maguire's love interest in Ang Lee's swinging 1970s set "The Ice Storm", Holmes made the most of her supporting role, proving a compelling screen performer. While this big screen debut won the actress acclaim, television would soon make Katie Holmes a household name. Interestingly, the young actress' refreshing grounding in homespun values almost caused her to miss her auspicious small screen debut. Asked to audition for Kevin Williamson's smart teen drama "Dawson's Creek" on the same day she was to debut as Lola in her high school production of "Damn Yankees", Holmes politely declined, citing that her commitment to fellow castmates and friends was more important. Casting agents wisely rescheduled, and Holmes won the role on the new series. As Joey Potter, Dawson's proverbial girl-next-door, she played the injured innocent, sweet, but with an edge, the product of a background far removed from the Holmes' own traditional and happy home. Faced with an imprisoned father, dead mother, and an overworked sister who is not only Joey's guardian, but has a new baby of her own, the character's everyday traumas were handled with grace by the actress. Holmes weekly gave a standout performance on the popular series, even among a cast of palpably gifted and more experienced young actors. Her skillful performance in the disappointing thriller "Disturbing Behavior" (1998) couldn't elevate that film above its uninspired predictability, and while Williamson's "Teaching Mrs. Tingle" (1999) showcased Holmes' glowing presence and unmatched watchability, it became apparent that it was high time she moved past the tired teen scream genre. A move in that direction came with her turn as a supermarket checkout girl caught up in a drug-related hostage situation in Doug Liman's indie ensemble film "Go" (1999). She was reunited with Tobey Maguire in "Wonder Boys" (2000), the Curtis Hanson-directed adaptation of Michael Chabon's novel chronicling a middle-aged author (Michael Douglas) plagued by writer's block. With "Go" and "Wonder Boys," in which she played a student pursuing her much-older professor, Holmes smartly chose feature film roles that played against her well-established "Dawson's Creek" persona, a challenge she continued to accept as more films came her way. In Sam Raimi's thriller "The Gift" (2000) she played a bitchy, maneating Southern beauty who is brutally murdered, essaying a grown-up nude scene designed more to put the character of sweet-faced Joey behind her than to titillate. She took the lead in screenwriter-turned-director Stephen Gaghan's woman-in-jeopardy outing "Abandon" (2002), her first turn at carrying a picture in a mature leading role, and also joined the cast of director Joel Schumacher's 2003 action fest "The Phone Booth." Further honing her post-TV craft as her series entered its last season, Holmes took the lead in the indie "Pieces of April" (2003) playing a headstrong young woman trying to reconcile with her dying mother--a role than earned her much critical acclaim--and appeared in a supporting role in "The Singing Detective" (2003), an adaptation of the Dennis Potter book starring Mel Gibson and Robert Downey, Jr. After that it was on to a role she had probably outgrown, "First Daughter" (2004), in which she was cast as an independent-minded Presidential offspring off to college who falls for the Secret Service agent assigned to protect her by posing as a dorm advisor. Holmes got her introductory shot at a big-screen action blockbuster when she was cast as Bruce Wayne's childhood friend and love interest Rachel Dawes, an uncorruptable Gotham City district attorney--and a character created especially for the screen--in "Batman Begins" (2005), the effective, involving relaunch of the popular film franchise focusing on the character's shadowy origins. Just weeks before the film's debut Holmes' private life was catapulted into the public eye when she and actor Tom Cruise announced that they were dating, an announcement that was met with some skepticism from the media and the public given that the word came prior to both having major summer movies poised to debut. Speculation that the relationship was a pubilicty stunt ran rampant, especially after some ill-advised public appearances--including their bizarre, love-professing visit to "The Oprah Winfrey Show" in which Cruise jumped on the furniture in indulged in much fist-pumpin. Holmes also adopted Cruise's management team and began taking courses in Scientology, which the superstar long championed. The couple's happy ending came in June 2005 when they announced their engagement in Paris. By October she announced that she was preganant with their first child together, prompting her to drop out of her co-starring role in the drama "Shame On You" (lensed 2005).
