Back when Meet The Parents first came out, I had high aspirations for Teri Polo. Surrounded by stars like Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro, Blythe Danner and Owen Wilson, she truly managed to hold her own, both in comedic and dramatic moments. Fast forward to 10 years later and with the second sequel to come out, the biggest movie that she's done since 2000 was Meet The Fockers. With Little Fockers (hopefully) the last in the trilogy, Polo should probably start booking some gigs, and apparently it starts with this one.
THR reports that Polo and Dermot Mulroney have on to a thriller titled Beyond. The film co-stars Jon Voight and Julian Morris and is being directed by Joseph Rusnak. In the film, a veteran detective and television psychic work together to try and find a lost child. Polo plays Voight's daughter and mother of the missing child and Mulroney's role is unknown. The film has already begun production in Alaska.
So it's not exactly a blockbuster that's going to rake in hundreds of millions, but it could be good with the proper script. There are worse roles to play than being Jon Voight's daughter - after all, that's how Angelina Jolie got her start.
