Adrianne Palicki is an American actress born on 6 May 1983 in Toledo, Ohio, to Nancy Lee and Jeffrey Arthur Palicki. The love and dedication between child and parents are so deep that the actress has a tattoo of her parents’ names on her arm.

She has an older brother, Eric Palicki, who writes comic books and influenced her love for comic books. The two wrote a book together in 2016 called “No Angel”.

Palicki has Polish, Hungarian, English, and German roots. In Toledo, she attended the Whitmer High School, where she was very sporty, participating in basketball and athletics.

She also appeared in plays while she was in her sophomore year of high school. Right before her graduation in 2001, she was voted Homecoming Queen.

Adrianne Palicki movies and TV shows

Palicki made her film debut in the 2003 short film “Rewrite”. In the same year, she made an appearance in the short film “Getting Rachel Back”.

The following year, 2004, she made an appearance in “Smallville” as the character, Kara. she said about the role:

“I think the character of “Kara” on Smallville was a little different from the one in the comic because her motive is different. She’s not evil by any means, whatsoever, but she does come to Clark for a specific reason. She doesn’t really have a sense of right or wrong; the morality isn’t there.”

In the same year, she appeared in “Quintuplets”, “CSI: Crime Investigation”, and “The Robinsons: Lost in Space”.

Palicki has made appearances in 2005’s “Northshore”, “Supernatural” which ran from 2005 to 2009, and 2006’s “South Beach”.

Her most prominent role came when she played Barbara ‘Bobbi’ Morse in “Marvel: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”. Now, she is wowing fans in “The Orville” which debuted in 2017 and was created by Seth McFarlane.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” is a television show created by Joss Whedon, Jed Whedon, and Marissa Tancharoen for ABC.

The show is based on the Marvel comic organisations’ Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D.), a peace-keeping organisation within the well-known and well-loved organisation.

In this series, the agents deal with a host of unusual problems including, Hydra, Inhumans, Life Model Decoys, alien species such as the Kree and Chronicoms, and time travel.

Palicki’s character, Barbara Morse, is an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., who was previously undercover in the evil organisation Hydra.

For this role, Palicki had to learn how to use the character’s signature arnis sticks even though she already had training in martial arts and gun training.

Wonder woman

Palicki was also part of a 2011 TV series whose pilot was not picked up. The series was expected to be aired in 2011, but NBC decided not to buy the show, and it did not make it to the small screen.

Palicki’s “Wonder Woman” spotted a different outfit than her 2020 successor. She wore long blue tights paired with blue and gold boots along with a red and gold bustier. However, the two women had on the trusty lasso of truth, the headband, and the wrist guards.

We can only imagine the kind of wonder woman that Palicki would have been if she had the chance to play the role.

Personal life

Adrienne Palicki has Celiac disease, a long-term autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the small intestine. Symptoms include chronic diarrhea, abdominal distention, malabsorption, loss of appetite, and an inability for children to grow normally. It is usually diagnosed in children within the age of six months to two years old.

The actress loves cooking, traveling, and hanging out with her brother, which should be obvious since she appears to be close to her family, close enough to have tattoos of her parents.

When it comes to relationships, Palicki has had quite a few of them. She dated her “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” co-star DJ Cotrona from 2011 to 2013.

In September 2014, her agent confirmed that she had become engaged to stuntman Jackson Spidell who she met on the set of “John Wick”, the action film starring Keanu Reeves.

That romance was short-lived, however, as the two broke up before 2018 though it is not known when exactly they did.

Adrianne Palicki and Scott Grimes

At the 2018 San-Diego comic con, however, it was revealed that she had started dating her “The Orville” co-star Scott Grimes. The two announced their engagement in January 2019 and got married in May 2019. Two months later, on 22 July 2019, she filed for divorce.

She dropped the filing, however, and in May 2020, she celebrated their anniversary with an Instagram post. She wrote:

“Happy anniversary to my husband @scottchristophergrimes. What a bizarre year it’s been with all of it’s ups and downs. Thankfully, we’ve been able to navigate it together. I love and appreciate you.”

However, she filed for divorce again in July 2020 citing irreconcilable differences. They both shared notices on their Instagram pages with Grimes writing, “so thankful for our time together as a couple, even more thankful for our deep everlasting friendship. Love ya AP.”

Palicki, on the other hand, captioned her post, “so thankful for our time as a couple, even more thankful for our deep, everlasting friendship. Love you SG.”

Net worth

Adrianne Palicki has been appearing in Hollywood films for over ten years. She has played very visible roles in several hit movies and TV shows including “Friday Night Lights”, “Wonder Woman”, “Supernatural”, “Smallville”, among others. She has earned a tidy sum from appearing in all these films. In 2016, she also published a comic book novel with her comic book-writer brother, titled “No Angel”.

All these sojourns in the entertainment industry have earned her a tidy sum of 4 million dollars ($4 million) according to Celebrity Net Worth. She will undoubtedly continue to appear in more roles as she takes her career further. Her net worth will definitely swell accordingly.

Social media

Adrianne Palicki is very active on social media, especially on Twitter and Instagram and she has over 200 thousand followers on both platforms.

She also has a Facebook page with almost 400 thousand likes. However, she is not very active on the account. Fans can follow Adrianne Palicki on Instagram at palicki.adrianne and on Twitter at AdriannePalicki.

Conclusion

Adrianne Palicki is a shining beacon in Hollywood; a great beauty of a woman who has appeared in several Hollywood productions. She is a brilliant and athletic young woman who knows what she wants and relentlessly goes after it.

She is also a star on the small screen, shining bright in every role that she takes. Although she was not able to play “Wonder Woman”, she ensures that she displays the virtues of the character every day.
