Neve Campbell

as Olivia

Neve Campbell ("Burn Up") plays Olivia Maidstone, Philip Maidstone’s (Jesse L. Martin) wife who runs the charitable foundation set up by Teddy Rist (James Purefoy) and her husband.

Campbell has made an indelible impression on audiences with her work in both major feature films and on the small screen. Most recently, she completed two prestigious television projects in "Burn Up," a BBC movie about global warming opposite Bradley Whitford, and "Sea-Wolf," a miniseries based on the Jack London novel opposite Tim Roth and Sebastian Koch.

Prior to that, Campbell completed production on the Oliver Parker film "I Really Hate My Job" as well as "Closing the Ring" with Shirley MacLaine and Christopher Plummer (directed by Sir Richard Attenborough). She also starred in Arthur Miller’s satirical dark comedy "Resurrection Blues" for director Robert Altman at London’s Old Vic Theater as well as "Love Song" opposite Cillian Murphy at the New Ambassador Theater.

Campbell’s additional projects include the recently completed "Relative Stranger," a feature film with Danny DeVito and Kathy Bates; Vic Sarin’s feature "Partition"; "When I Will Be Loved" for director James Toback; "Churchill: The Hollywood Years," starring opposite Christian Slater for director Peter Richardson (soon to be released in the United Kingdom); Showtime’s "Reefer Madness," a musical satire of the 1930s film that foretold the evils of marijuana and "The Company" for director Altman.

In addition, Campbell also produced "The Company" after she brought the idea to and developed the script with Barbara Turner ("Pollack"). The film also stars James Franco and Malcolm McDowell.

Campbell first came to the attention of audiences when she was cast in the role of Julia Salinger on the critically acclaimed and Golden Globe Award-winning series "Party of Five," but it was her starring role in the first installment of the "Scream" (1996) trilogy that made her a household name.

Campbell also starred opposite Jeremy Irons in the Showtime movie "Last Call" (2002). "Last Call" is a portrait of legendary author F. Scott Fitzgerald in his final days, as seen through the eyes of his secretary, aspiring writer Frances Kroll Ring, portrayed by Campbell. Prior to that, Campbell starred in the independent film "Panic" (2001) opposite William H. Macy and Donald Sutherland.

In 2000, Campbell starred opposite DeVito, Jamie Lee Curtis and Bette Midler in the whodunit "Drowning Mona" and in the box-office hit "Scream 3." She also starred in the independent film "Investigating Sex," opposite Nick Nolte and Dermot Mulroney, for director Alan Rudolph. In 1999, she starred with Matthew Perry and Dylan McDermott in the Warner Bros. romantic comedy "Three to Tango."

Campbell starred opposite Matthew Dillon, Denise Richards and Kevin Bacon in John McNaughton’s 1998 erotic thriller "Wild Things," for which she received a nomination for an MTV Movie Award. In 1997, she reprised her role in the first of the two "Scream" sequels.

A native of Canada, Campbell made her debut in the Toronto production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s "Phantom of the Opera." She went on to star in the TV movie "The Canterville Ghost" opposite Patrick Stewart as well as NBC’s movie "I Know My Son Is Still Alive." She also starred in the syndicated series "Catwalk" and was later cast in Andrew Fleming’s motion picture "The Craft" plus the 1970s ensemble drama "54." She also provided the voice of Simba’s daughter, Kiara, in Disney’s video sequel, "Simba’s Pride: The Lion King II."

Campbell has received numerous awards and award nominations for her role in the "Scream" trilogy, including three nominations (and one win) for the MTV Movie Award for Best Female Performance for "Scream" in 1997, as well as for "Scream 2" which she won in 1998. She garnered another nomination for "Scream 3" in 2000. She also earned a Blockbuster Award for Favorite Actress-Horror for "Scream 2."

I love Neve!! she's a great actress!!!

What a waste of talent it is for both Neve Campbell and the show. She is so under used with only a few mintes of screen time and maybe one line an episode it makes me wonder what the point of her character ever was... I hope she gets something soon somewhere that she can truly do something with. The last few things I've seen her in seem to have used her name to get green lit and then turned around and bit the hand that feeds them by screwing with her characters, not the phlantropist though, this show had big problems long before signing either she or Jesse L. Martin up and it doesn't seem to have resolved any of them. If it gets a second chance I hope they realize that the strenghth of any show is the characters and both of these actors are far to under utilized.
