Alex Breckenridge Movies
Darien, CT, native
Alexandra Breckenridge (also frequently billed as
Alex Breckenridge) took an interest in the stage as a youngster and moved to Southern California to pursue acting during early adolescence.
Breckenridge's initial assignments largely consisted of guest roles on programs including
Freaks and Geeks and
Dawson's Creek, though she branched out into feature work in 1999 (at the age of 17) with a turn in the independently produced comedy Locust Valley, and thereafter alternated between additional acting work in Hollywood features and contributions to high-profile network series. Feature projects included the family-friendly showbiz comedy
Big Fat Liar (2002) and the gender-bending
Amanda Bynes farce
She's the Man (2006), while additional television contributions included guest spots on
Family Guy and
Charmed and an ongoing role as celebrity tabloid journalist Willa McPherson on the
Courteney Cox-headlined satirical drama
Dirt (2007). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
