He studied theater and English literature at Wesleyan University and earned a master's degree in theater from the prestigious Juilliard Theater Center. Whitford's first professional performance was in the off-Broadway production of "Curse of the Starving Class," with Kathy Bates. He also starred in the Broadway production of "The West Wing" creator Aaron Sorkin's "A Few Good Men." His additional theater credits include "Three Days of Rain" at the Manhattan Theatre Club, "Measure for Measure" at the Lincoln Center, and the title role in "Coriolanus" at the Folger Shakespeare Theatre in Washington, D.C.

Her first job out of school was with New York's American Jewish Theater, after which she hit the road, joining the national tour of Neil Simon's "Brighton Beach Memoirs." She has maintained a connection to the stage throughout her career. A founding member of the New York-based off-Broadway theater company Naked Angels, she appeared in their production of Frank Pugliese's play "Aven-U Boys, " as well as "King of Connecticut" with Frances McDormand. She also performed in the Broadway run of the award-winning play "I'm Not Rappaport" with Cleavon Little and Judd Hirsch. More recently, she appeared in Athol Fugard's "My Children, My Africa," which the author directed at the La Jolla Playhouse. No stranger to television, Travis starred with Peter Gallagher and Isabella Rossellini in the Tom Cruise-directed segment of the Showtime anthology series Fallen Angels (1993).- Born in Bedford, Texas, on March 4, 1993, the multi-talented Jenna Boyd has been "on the go" in her life since the age of 2. Her mother, Debbie, entered Jenna into a modeling search when she was two years old. Her enthusiasm and sweet nature captured the hearts of agents who informed her mother to send Jenna to agencies. Soon enough, Jenna was appearing in commercials and print ads, and was cast as one of the young kids in The Barney Show.
A few years later, the family moved to Atlanta, Georgia, because of work commitments involving Jenna's father, Mike, who now flies for Delta Air. Jenna's agent in Atlanta urged Debbie to temporarily move to Los Angeles, California, to audition. It worked, and Jenna was quickly cast in the TV shows CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000), Just Shoot Me! (1997), Titus (1999), and Six Feet Under (2001). Jenna also appeared in the feature TV-movie Mary Christmas (2002) where she played the lead character, Felice. Jenna's first foray into film was a small part in The Exorcist (1973) director William Friedkin's The Hunted (2003) where she played daughter to Benicio Del Toro's character; the film also stars Tommy Lee Jones. She then appeared in Sam Weisman's Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star (2003) playing star David Spade's "adopted" daughter Sally. Jenna's biggest breakthrough came in Ron Howard's (Night Shift (1982), Apollo 13 (1995)) 2003 film The Missing (2003), where she received critical acclaim for her haunting portrayal of Dot Gilkenson, daughter of Cate Blanchett's character. (This was Jenna's second time working with Tommy Lee Jones.) Besides acting, Jenna Boyd is also an award-winning skater.
On the ice as early as 5:15 in the morning, Jenna's determination in her skating has already led her to master the double jump move, which is very successful for the 11-year old (her favorite skater is Tara Lipinski). Despite the hectic schedule of juggling skating, school (she's a straight-A student) and acting, Jenna is gifted and strong enough to handle it all.
Jenna's other hobbies include running a spy club with her friends, horseback riding, attending church, making homemade perfumes and spending time with her brother, Cayden, who is also an up-and-coming actor (last seen in Clint Eastwood's 2003 film Mystic River (2003) as the son to the Tim Robbins character). Jenna Boyd currently resides in Los Angeles. - Director

Producer Andrew Kosove is co-CEO and co-founder of Alcon Entertainment, the Los Angeles-based wholly independent production company that develops, finances, produces and markets theatrical motion pictures exclusively for distribution by Warner Bros.
Kosove ironically became interested in film production while double majoring in economics and politics as a Princeton undergraduate. Although he and college friend Broderick Johnson shared a mutual interest in film and the business of entertainment, neither committed to pursuing a career as filmmakers. Johnson eventually graduated and moved to New York, where he joined a Wall Street brokerage firm. Kosove graduated a couple of years later and intended to enroll in law school when he heard about Richard Kirkland, a basketball player and gangster, and thought his story would make a good movie. Kosove enlisted Johnson and together they spent three years working with a producer on the project. The project was never made, but they ultimately moved to Los Angeles to pursue filmmaking careers.
Soon after, the two were introduced to Federal Express Chairman and Founder Frederick W. Smith. Kosove and Johnson took the opportunity to present Smith with a 221-page proposal suggesting that an independent film company, backed by a well-capitalized individual or company, and aligned with a major studio for an exclusive distribution arrangement would, applying their reasoned methods, reap profits on copyrighted assets over a set period of time. Smith liked what he read.
Ultimately, Smith chose to partner with Kosove and Johnson in the finance, development and production company Alcon Entertainment. The two producers set up a small apartment "office" they rented by the week, and later a "real" office after launching their first project, "Lost and Found," a failure at the box office and a momentary set back for the young producers. However, the second film they produced, "My Dog Skip," was released soon after and earned them their first bona fide success, and Smith's admiration for their persistence and business sense.
Since then Alcon has established two long-term, exclusive distribution agreements with Warner Bros, which was recently renewed through 2015, calling for the producers to finance and produce three films per year for Warner Bros. to distribute.
In 2009, Kosove produced alongside co-CEO Broderick Johnson, Alcon's critically acclaimed, box office hit, "The Blind Side," which was nominated for a Best Picture Oscar and earned Sandra Bullock the Oscar for Best Actress. "The Blind Side" has grossed more than $309 million worldwide and broke box office records by being the first film with a female lead to surpass the $200 million mark, earned in its seventh week.
Alcon followed up the success of "The Blind Side" with the hit action thriller "The Book of Eli," directed by Albert and Allen Hughes and starring Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman and Mila Kunis. The film grossed more than $157 million worldwide at the box office. It was Denzel Washington's second biggest opening ever.
The Company's next release is "Joyful Noise," a music driven comedy starring Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton slated for release January 13, 2012.
Earlier this year the Company released the box-office success "Dolphin Tale," a 3-D family film starring Morgan Freeman, Harry Connick Jr., Ashley Judd and Kris Kristofferson and "Something Borrowed," based on New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin's book, starring Kate Hudson, Ginnifer Goodwin and John Krasinski. All three films are released via Alcon's output deal with Warner Bros.
Currently, Alcon is working with Ridley Scott developing a follow up to the iconic science fiction thriller "Blade Runner," to which they recently acquired all-inclusive franchise rights. The filmmakers have not yet revealed whether the theatrical project will be a prequel or sequel to the renowned original. Scott will direct.
Additionally Alcon is producing a live action/animated big screen adaptation of the 1970s Hanna-Barbera animated TV series Hong Kong Phooey, with Eddie Murphy attached as the lead voice.
Alcon has financed, and/or co-financed/produced 20 films, including both "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants " films starring Amber Tamblyn, America Ferrera, Blake Lively and Alexis Bledel; "P.S. I Love You," the hit romantic comedy starring Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler and directed by Richard La Gravenese; the critical favorite "My Dog Skip;" the hit comedy "Dude, Where's My Car?" starring Ashton Kutcher; "Insomnia," starring Al Pacino, Robin Williams, and Hilary Swank and directed by Chris Nolan; and "16 Blocks," starring Bruce Willis, among others.
Kosove is also an accomplished marathon runner and ironman distance triathlete. He lives in Los Angeles and is married to producer Kira Davis, they have two children.- Actor

Upon graduating from New Hanover High School, Nikki went to college in North Carolina, but never enjoyed it. In 2000, she got a role in the Freddie Prinze, Jr-Jessica Biel film, Summer Catch, and despite her scene being cut from the movie, she still got her SAG card. So, realizing she needed to move to Los Angeles to fully pursue an acting career, in 2001, Nikki packed up her car and drove out to Hollywood. Her first big break happened when Nikki won her first lead role, as the love interest of the Duke cousins. She followed that with an arc as drug-dealing party-girl from the right side of the tracks, Jess Sathers, on the hit show, The OC, and with a memorable role in the third installment of the Fast and Furious franchise, Tokyo Drift. 2012 brought an exciting opportunity to explore editorial writing, and she had several articles published in Geek Magazine, as well as on-line, at Marvel.com.
Most recently, leaning into her years of experience- both in front of and behind the camera- Nikki has stepped into the role of talent manager at the management group that first launched her own acting career. She looks forward to working with established actors to provide support, as well as discovering new talent, and says this move feels "very full-circle."- Actress

Angie Stone was born on 18 December 1961 in Columbia, South Carolina, USA. She is an actress and director, known for The Hot Chick (2002), Ride Along (2014) and The Fighting Temptations (2003).- The acting bug caught me early when I got to play the lead in a local play. Just over a year later I was lucky enough to book the lead role of Lava Girl, in the Robert Rodriquez film The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl (2005). After that amazing experience, I was hooked and in love with every aspect of creating characters. Then as fate would have it, I hit a big growth spurt and at age 13, I looked like an 18 year old. After a few years, of getting down to the end on roles and ultimately being told "my age and essence played too old", I decided to take some time away. Since then, I've been in college working on a degree in Psychology. To me, what I love about acting is understanding people and what makes them tick, which is what makes Psych so interesting. Other than college, I took the time to focus on myself. Growing up a child actor is somewhat of a focused and sheltered life. I wanted to experience so much more. So, needless to say, these years away have been the best "life road trip" I could have taken. It not only helped me develop and grow so much as a person, but my experiences helped me grow as an actress. While I was busy doing me, I took some time to go to a few different acting schools/classes. I figured variety is the spice of life and what better way to see what fits than trying on lots of different hats. The experiences were amazing and helped me figure out who I am as an actress. I completed the Lee Strasberg Theater and Film Institute, which was so inspiring. I also went to classes and got to work with Ivana Chubbuck on scene study, Leigh Kilton Smith on auditioning, and Cameron Thor in class and one on one working on scene study and building strong interesting characters. Now, after taking some years completely away from the acting business, I feel like now more than ever I know who I am and what I want. My passion for acting is like a fire burning inside of me, and I am ready to really get back out there again and start pursuing my career. I really feel like this is my time and I couldn't be more excited for the future.

He and his younger sister Makena were raised in a well-mannered, Roman Catholic household in Hudsonville, Michigan. He is of English, German, Dutch, and Scottish descent. At the age of six, Taylor began studying martial arts at Fabiano's Karate School and he, along with his family, quickly noticed his unique and natural talent for the sport. He was soon invited to train with seven-time world karate champion Michael Chaturantabut (aka Mike Chat) and, at the age of eight, he was asked to represent his country in the 12-years-and-under division in the World Karate Association, where he became the Junior World Forms and Weapons champion, winning three gold medals.

However, in addition to his love for martial arts, Taylor quickly developed a love for acting at the age of seven years old when his martial arts instructor, who was involved in show business, encouraged him to audition for a small appearance in a Burger King commercial. Although he was unsuccessful, he enjoyed the experience so much that he told his parents that he wanted to pursue a career in acting. Soon, he and his family were traveling back and forth from their home in Michigan to California so Taylor could regularly audition for acting roles. When Taylor was 10, with the frequent traveling and air fares starting to become overwhelming, his family made the crucial decision to relocate to Los Angeles, where Taylor would have the advantage of being able to audition for films, television, and commercials full-time.
