Melissa "Missy" Peregrym (born June 16, 1982) is a Canadian actress and former fashion model. She made her feature film debut in the 2006 gymnastics comedy drama Stick It. She played a recurring role as Candice Wilmer on the NBC television series Heroes and Andi on the CW television series Reaper.

Peregrym began modeling at the age of eighteen, she has appeared in commercials for Mercedes-Benz, Sprint Canada, and the Olympics. She made her acting debut in a 2000 episode of the television series Dark Angel, and spent the next several years appearing in television roles, including episodes of The Chris Isaak Show, Black Sash, Jake 2.0, Smallville, Tru Calling, Life as We Know It, Andromeda, Heroes, and in the made-for-television film Call Me: the Rise and Fall of Heidi Fleiss.

After an uncredited role in 2004's Catwoman, Peregrym made her film debut playing the lead role in 2006's Stick It, about a rebellious teenager who is forced to return to her former life in gymnastics but ends up liking her old life and continues to live it. She also appears in the web-only short film Le Montage.

Peregrym portrayed illusion-generating Candice Wilmer on the television series Heroes.

She was cast in The CW's new series Reaper as the female lead, in the role that was originally intended to be played by Nikki Reed, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Reaper was about a young man named Sam who became a bounty hunter for the devil. Missy played the role of Sam's love interest, Andi.
