Joe: Retaliation (2013), and John Wick (2014). She currently plays Barbara "Bobbi" Morse on the American television series Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (2014–2016).

Early life

Palicki was born in Toledo, Ohio, the daughter of Nancy Lee (née French) and Jeffrey Arthur Palicki.[2] She has an elder brother, Eric, a comic book writer, who influenced her interest in comics.[3] Her father is of Polish and Hungarian descent, while her mother is of English and German ancestry.[4] In 2001, Palicki graduated from Whitmer High School in Toledo, where she ran track and was named runner-up for homecoming queen.

Career

She was a series regular on the first three seasons of NBC's drama series Friday Night Lights from 2006 to 2009, portraying Tyra Collette. In early 2011, she returned for the final two episodes of the series.[5]

In 2003, Palicki also appeared as Judy Robinson in John Woo's unsold pilot, The Robinsons: Lost in Space. In 2006, she also appeared in The WB pilot Aquaman as the evil Nadia. The pilot was not picked up for series by the CW network, a result of The WB and UPN network merger, which occurred while the pilot was being filmed. She also appeared as Kara/Lindsey Harrison in the Season 3 finale of Smallville. Palicki also starred in Supernatural as Jessica Moore, Sam Winchester's doomed girlfriend who is killed by a demon in its pilot episode. The character reappears in the Supernatural Season 2 episode, "What Is and What Should Never Be", and the Season 5 episode "Free To Be You and Me."

She made an appearance in the will.i.am music video "We Are the Ones" in support of 2008 presidential hopeful Barack Obama.[6] In 2010, Palicki joined the FOX television drama Lone Star, which was cancelled after two episodes, despite good reviews.[7] In 2011, Palicki portrayed Wonder Woman in a 2011 pilot produced by David E. Kelley for NBC. The pilot was not picked up as a series.[8][9] She played the recurring role of Dr. Samantha Lake in season one of the sitcom About a Boy in 2014, reuniting with Friday Night Lights showrunner Jason Katims.[10]

Palicki starred in Legion (2010), and co-starred in G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013) in the lead female role of Lady Jaye.[11] She also appeared in supporting roles in Red Dawn (2012)[12] and John Wick (2014).[13] Although initially signed on to star in the Jamie Babbit's 2012 horror film Breaking the Girls, due to production delays and scheduling conflicts, Palicki does not appear in the film.[14][15]

In August 2014, Palicki joined Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in a special recurring role as Barbara "Bobbi" Morse.[16] She became one of the principal cast after the midseason break of season 2 and throughout season 3.[17] In 2016, ABC ordered a pilot episode for a spin-off, Marvel's Most Wanted, featuring her character in the lead role.[18]

Personal life

Palicki has celiac disease.[19][20] As of September 2014, she is dating stuntman Jackson Spidell, who she met on the set of John Wick.[21]
