Kelly has been working opposite big stars since she was a teenager and now she is taking to the stage for a special show in NYC.
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.
