D NEWSAILY RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY T H E V O I C E O F T E H A M A C O U N T Y S I N C E 1 8 8 5 BY JAY BOBBIN Suggest to Ashley Judd that her latest character is right in her wheelhouse, and she won't disagree. After playing heroines-against-all-odds in such movies as "Kiss the Girls," "Double Jeopardy" and "High Crimes," the former "Sisters" regular is proud to say she's doing her own stunts for her television return in the ABC action-drama series "Missing," premiering Thursday, March 15. Judd stars as Becca Winstone, whose son (Nick Eversman) vanishes 10 years after he saw his CIA agent father (played by Sean Bean) apparently killed. She also was an intelligence operative, and she calls those skills back into play as her search takes her across Europe. "This was a really good fit for me," Judd says of filming "Missing" on location. "It was only 10 episodes, which allowed me to stay really involved with the balance of my life. It has the power of a network behind it, and the premise is simple and unforgettable. The producers made quite an impression on me, and as I look back on our season and the remarkable places where we filmed, what continues to stand out for me are the people ... the quality of the relationships, and how much I enjoyed all my co- workers." Still, Judd wasn't sure about doing "Missing" at first, though being overseas is something she's used to; she and husband Dario Franchitti – the Best of Tehama County Will be announced in a special section on 2012 Winners Saturday, March 31, 2012 Digital Edition will stay online through March, 2013 D NEWSAILY RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY 545 Diamond Avenue • P.O.

"As much as I like to travel, I also really like to be home," she notes. "I started to feel a little concerned about the length of the commitment, and a friend of mine sighed, 'Oh, my gosh. Europe in the summer? How bad can it be?' And that took me out of my concern." As did actually going to the locations. "We started with two weeks in Croatia," Judd reports, "which is a country of which I'd heard but had never visited. It delivered absolutely everything that the tourism brochures promise. I could walk from our hotel, which was carved into the side of a cliff, to the seaside villa. I thought the first pool I swam in was magnificent, until I swam in the next pool. Then we moved on to places like Rome and Prague and Paris and Istanbul. It was quite an adventure." Judd also wanted a project that would satisfy her, particularly in one of her first acting jobs (along with last year's movie "Dolphin Tale") after receiving her master's degree in public administration from Harvard University. Additionally, "Missing" had to suit the other elements of her life. "I flew from Prague to the Indianapolis 500," she recalls, "and I followed my husband's racing very closely while filming. I wasn't able to go back to North America to attend all of his races, but I certainly was there when I really needed to be. We and the entire racing world lost a great hero in Dan Wheldon (who died in an on-the-track accident in October), so I was really glad I was there when it mattered." 4:00 p.m. (CBS-12) 2012 NCAA Basket- ball Tournament Second Round: Teams TBA.
