Fantastic Femmes--Michelle Rodriguez

Note: this page has been updated with NEW info HERE!
"Mercurial" doesn't begin to describe this talented, though sometimes undisciplined actress.
Known to the public as much for her off-camera escapades as for her acting, she tends to dominate the screen, even in secondary roles (IMHO).
Genre appearances include...
Tropico de Sangre (Minerva Mirabal)
Avatar (Trudy Chacon)
LOST (Ana-Lucia Cortez)
A Cat's Tale (Jujube)
The Breed (Nikki)
BloodRayne (Katarin)
Resident Evil (Rain Ocampo)
The Fast and the Furious / Fast & Furious [FandF 4] (Letty Marciano)
True Crime: Streets of LA [Video Game] (Rosie Velasco)
Halo 2 [Video Game] (Marine)

Fantastic Femmes--Kandyse McClure

HERE!
Last night, just as we were about to keyboard Kandyse into our Fantastic Femmes section of the blog, her character, Anastasia Dualla, committed suicide in BSG's final season opener, "Sometimes a Great Notion".
(We hope Dee reappears, at least in flashbacks, in some of the remaining eps.)
She's been an appealing presence on the show from her relatively minor role in the mini-series to her character's increasing importance in the plotline, and her gut-wrenching departure is a scary reminder that almost no character is safe...
