Reiko
Aylesworth (born December 9, 1972
in Chicago, Illinois) is an American film and television actress,
probably
best known for her work on
the television series 24. She is of Dutch, Welsh, and Japanese
ancestry. Aylesworth moved to Seattle, Washington when she was
13 years old. She went on to study at the University of Washington.
Beginning her career on the soap opera One Life to Live, Aylesworth
also
had minor roles in Random Hearts, and You've Got Mail. After guest
starring roles in Law & Order, Law & Order Special Victims
Unit, Now and Again, and The West Wing, Aylesworth was part of the
2001 series All Souls, which was cancelled during its first season.
In 2002, Aylesworth joined the cast of another series, American Embassy
which also failed to gain an audience.
Reiko Aylesworth also had
a much-publicized guest starring role on CSI which was initially
rumored to be a regular
role. However,
after
fired cast members Jorja Fox and George Eads were rehired, and with
the offer to return to 24, Aylesworth's role lasted only one episode.
Since her departure from 24, Aylesworth has guest starred on the
short
lived series Conviction, appeared on
stage in The Fearless,
filmed a supporting role in Kevin Costner’s Mr. Brooks, and
has starred in the independent thriller The Killing Floor. Aylesworth
was also originally cast as Dr. Adrienne Holland in the series 3
lbs. However, 3 lbs was not picked up at the time. When CBS finally
decided to pick up the series for a late fall 2006 start, the leading
roles were all recast. It is not known if Aylesworth simply declined
to star in the new series due to commitments elsewhere or if she
was not offered the role again.
On 25 September 2006 it was announced that
Reiko Aylesworth was chosen for one of the two lead roles in Aliens
vs. Predator: Requiem. She
has been cast as Kelly O'Brien, a pilot and soldier. In January 2007,
Aylesworth had a guest role in two episodes of the new ABC comedy,
The Knights of Prosperity in which she played the head of Mick Jagger’s
security company.
In September 2007, it was reported that Aylesworth
would appear in five episodes of the upcoming season of ER, playing
hospital chaplain
Julia Dupree. Her storyline will last for 5 episodes and finds
Julia attracting the amorous attention of Dr. Gates (John Stamos).
