First Target

Secret Service Agent Alex McGregor (Daryl Hannah, Splash) trains constantly with her elite team for a job she hopes she will never have to perform: protecting President Jonathan Hayes (Gregory Harrison) from a life-threatening situation. Alex's boyfriend, rugged outdoorsman Grant Coleman (Doug Savant), is also a close friend of the President. When Grant mentions that he can't find the right moment to propose, the President suggests he come along on an upcoming trip to Seattle, overriding Alex's objections about distractions. In Seattle, a veteran agent's apparent accidental death is actually a part of a sinister plot that will test Alex and her colleagues' skills, resolve and loyalty.

In the made-for-TV FIRST TARGET, Daryl Hannah stars as feisty and combative U.S. Secret Service agent Alex McGregor, a role created by Mariel Hemingway in the earlier TV movie FIRST DAUGHTER. This time around, Alex finds herself attempting to prevent the assassination of the President of the United States in a "wide open" Washington State national park. Offering assistance every step of the way is Alex's fiancé, Grant Carlson (Doug Savant), who might otherwise be neglected altogether by the understandably preoccupied heroine. Boasting gorgeous scenery (it was filmed in British Columbia) and a particularly cunning villain, FIRST TARGET was originally telecast over TBS on October 15, 2000.
