Rachel Nichols Biography
Rachel Emily Nichols is a photogenic beau born on January 8th, 1980. Right now you probably know her best as Scarlett O'Hara from the 2009 blockbuster G.I. Joe and the Rise of Cobra., but she is normally recognized as a CIA officer in Alias: Rachel Gibson (must make it easier being named the same as her character!). Her first and last name are the same as the ESPN reporter Rachel Alexandra Nichols.
A self-described late bloomer and non-hot-chick (in H.S., we know that's not true anymore) she crammed through college and won her first role as a hostess in a 2002 episode of Sex and the City. From there she did a lot of bit parts leading up to her participation in the aforementioned roles as well as The Amityville Horror and The Woods. Besides flicks she's done some sexy photo shoots in Cosmo (2001), Maxim (2003) and Blackbook (2008).
She's a natural blonde but has no qualms about changing her hair color if the role requires it; brunette or red-head (a la Scarlett). She even donned green skin in the Star Trek reboot as Uhura's sexy roommate Gaila. Besides G.I. Joe, she will be in the upcoming television movies U.S. Attorney and Them plus two features For Sale By Owner and Meskada.
