    'Reaper' actress corners 'Copper'

    Missy Peregrym takes lead role in ABC drama
    By Nellie Andreeva

    "Reaper" co-star Missy Peregrym has been tapped as the lead of Canadian cop drama "Copper," which will air on ABC.

    Billed as "Grey's Anatomy" set in the world of rookie cops, "Copper" centers on Andy McNally (Peregrym), a newly minted cop fresh from the academy and the daughter of a homicide detective. She is anxious about her first day on the job, which doesn't go as well as she had wished.

    ABC acquired "Copper" in April from Canadian producer E1.

    Filming on the series, which has a 13-episode order, is slated to begin shortly in Toronto.

    Montreal-born Peregrym most recently played the female lead Andi on the CW's supernatural dramedy "Reaper." She also co-starred on the ABC drama "Life as We Know It" and recurred on "Heroes" and "Smallville."

    She is repped by Gersh and Brillstein's Jai Khanna.

    Missy sits down with Elle Canada to discuss “Stick It.”  She reflects on her training schedule for the film. “I was sore every day. Gymnasts make it look so easy, but it actually strains every part of your body—I even ended up with strong toes!” While she no longer is performing splits or cat leaps, she does admit, “At random moments, I do get the urge to do a handstand. So wherever I am I do it, just to be sure I still can!”

    Missy always thought she was athletic, but after training with professional gymnasts for her role in “Stick It,” she had to reconsider her definition of the word. As she tells International Gymnast, “I’m embarrassed I called myself an athlete before. I didn’t understand what was actually required of me.” In this interview, Missy talks about how demanding and occasionally painful her training was, the rewards of learning to do proper front and back handsprings and what she learned about hard work and dedication from the real gymnasts she worked with.

    In a 7-page layout in LA Direct, Missy may be wearing over $10,000 of borrowed jewelry in the shoot. But for her, it is more about a pair of $38 kicks from Tom's Shoes. The Santa Monica based store has a more important mission than just selling reasonably priced and very comfortable footwear. For every pair purchased, Tom’s Shoes donates a free pair to a child in need. Since its inception in 2006, the store has delivered 200,000 pairs to impoverished areas around the globe, from South Africa to Argentina. Missy often donates her time to raise awareness of this issue.
