Actress Jean Louisa Kelly appearing in special show in New York City

Last summer's biggest movie blockbuster could also be in the running for Best Picture at this year's Oscars, but it's already given a big boost to a performer from the New York area.

Entertainment Reporter Sandy Kenyon caught up with her at the Laurie Beechman Theatre in Midtown Manhattan where she was rehearsing for Saturday night's show. A brief but pivotal role opposite Tom Cruise as the wife of Val Kilmer's character in "Top Gun: Maverick" came after she aced her audition. "He has always encouraged me, he's always said, if I'm nervous about something, he says 'just go -- go to the audition, just get up at bat,'" Kelly said.
