Source: 20th Century FoxMAGGIE GRACE (April Havens In KNIGHT AND DAY) was last seen starring opposite Liam Neeson as his estranged daughter in the sleeper hit Taken, a suspenseful drama co-written and produced by Luc Besson (The Professional). The film was a 180-degree turn from her last role in the indie dramedy The Jane Austen Book Club, in which she starred opposite Maria Bello, Emily Blunt, Hugh Dancy and Amy Brenneman. Grace has three upcoming films, all due in 2010: The Experiment, in which she plays Adrien Brody's love interest; Malice in Wonderland, a dark take on the classic tale, in which she plays the lead character of Alice; and Flying Lessons, in which she plays the lead character, a woman in her mid-twenties who returns to her hometown and has to confront people and problems she thought she'd left behind.
The Ohio native has an enviable list of credits in her relatively short career. Grace is known worldwide for her starring role as Shannon Rutherford on the first two seasons of the hit television series Lost, a role she reprised in the series finale. She made a stunning television debut as Martha Moxley in the USA Network telefilm Murder in Greenwich. Grace's other television credits include the highly-rated CBS telefilm 12 Mile Road, opposite Tom Selleck, as a spoiled city kid forced to live with her estranged father on a farm; a recurring role on Oliver Beene; and guest-starring roles on popular series such as Law & Order: SVU, Cold Case and CSI: Miami.
