Katie Holmes: She almost gave up acting at 17

Katie Holmes is world famous not only because of “Dawson’s Creek”. Whether in “Batman Begins”, “Ocean’s Eight” or the six seasons of “Dawson’s Creek”: Katie Holmes (44) has embodied a wide variety of roles over the past 25 years. At the age of 17, when she shot for various auditions but didn’t get anything in return she realized that she might stay with "The Ice Storm" role forever and that she wasn’t made for show business. But Holmes didn’t give up and landed a role in 1998 that opened the door to the dream factory.
