MUTANT X UPDATE - 11/07/03
Tribune Entertainment on Thursday night confirmed for The Continuum that Karen Cliche has joined the cast of Mutant X and provided details about her role.
Cliche, who most recently starred as Mackenzie Previn in the syndicated action series Adventure, Inc., will play Lexa Pierce, an "intriguing new character with a shadowy past." Like the members of the Mutant X team, Lexa was also the unwitting subject of genetic experimentation gone awry and, as a result, has special powers that allow her to manipulate light in amazing ways.
According to Tribune, Victor Webster (Brennan), Victoria Pratt (Shalimar) and Forbes March (Jesse) are returning for the third season of Mutant X, which begins in syndication the week of Sept. 29.
Lauren Lee Smith, who played Emma, confirmed on her web site that she will not be returning for Season 3. Tribune has not indicated if John Shea, who plays Adam, will be back.
The second season of Mutant X ended on a cliffhanger, with all the main characters in jeopardy.
Cliche's series television credits include the MTV drama Undressed; the Muse Entertainment/ Spelling Television series All Souls; and Fox Family's Big Wolf on Campus. She co-starred with Adam Baldwin in the Francis Ford Coppola pilot Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and with Stephen Baldwin and Peter Gallagher in the made-for-television movie Protection. She has also appeared in a number of other TV movies, including Race Against Time with Eric Roberts.
On the big screen, Cliche appeared in Miramax's action thriller Steal, starring Stephen Dorff and Natasha Henstridge. She also starred in Summer, a feature film tribute to the filmmaking of John Hughes.
