The actress’s heroine defended herself from those around her with cynicism and wit, and gradually, over the course of the series’ life, she turned from the protagonist’s girlfriend into the love of his life.
In the first episodes, Katie’s childishness was noticeable, although her small appearance was not noticeable.

Now Holmes could afford to choose roles and agree only to those that were close to the actress’s spirit.
The actress carefully thought through each image, maintained accuracy in the portrayal of the heroines and acquired new artistic experience, but did not forget to enjoy the filming. Strictly following these points, Katie Holmes played the role of the bride of a school principal in Louisiana in the drama “The Gift.” Jessica suddenly went missing.

KATIE HOLMES IS MARRIED TO SUPERMAN
Only after Katie's engagement did it become known that Tom Cruise bought the ring on the day they met, deciding that the girl was right for him, and without doubting that he was the ideal match for her. At that time, she was delighted by such self-confidence. But when I learned the secret of my husband’s success, delight gave way to fear. According to the teachings of Scientologists, which Tom professes, a person, having reached a certain level in the hierarchy of the sect, acquires superpowers. Katie is loyal to her husband's religion, but superpowers are too much. Therefore, when, on the set of the fourth “Mission” in Dubai, the actor volunteered to personally perform a stunt on the tallest skyscraper in the world, Burj Khalifa, his wife tried her best to dissuade him. And after the stunt, Cruise once again climbed to the very top to scratch a heart with the names of his wife and daughter on the spire of the Burj Khalifa! How can you be angry with such a man? “Tom lives with passion, charging everything around him with it, an amazing quality in our world, gripped by boredom and dullness,” Holmes said about Cruise in an interview. For this he can be forgiven a lot. Katie feels guilty when thoughts creep into her head that Tom is trying too hard. She lives in a pink cotton cocoon, freed from worries, the need to worry about anything, to fight for something. Her predecessor, Nicole Kidman, said that Tom's woman belongs only to Tom, and the most he can allow her to do is bask in the rays of his glory. But when he comes to the thought of how high Nicole has soared after the divorce, Holmes fearfully steps back from the edge of the abyss...

But we also have a lot of differences - fortunately, I never had to go through such a terrible family tragedy as my heroine.” At the same time, Katie had an affair with one of her colleagues on the set, Joshua Jackson, but the journalists were unable to obtain any sensational pictures or scandalous details.
