      Anything else I should check out, other than Farscape obviously?

        I actually know her more from games. She is one of the first “real” actors to take acting work in the games industry seriously and she is in a TON of games. Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Uncharted, Gears of War, Crysis…

        I particularly enjoyed her character Audrey ‘Mac’ MaCallum in the CoD Infinite campaign.

        She’s in Pitch Black. I’m not sure I’m recommending it, but it’s a decent sci-fi survival horror with Vin Diesel’s Riddick.

          It’s a fun low-ish budget romp. It’s not art house, but it’s a fun enough take on the 'ole “small and plucky – but mostly doomed – group of people fighting alien menace” trope. The sequels are… not great.

        She does a lot of voice acting now, especially for video games. Not sure if she has a bad agent or if that’s just what she prefers but anything else she ends up tends to be minor parts in productions that are a bit low budget and kinda rough.

        Hard to tell, but she did end up as one of the nightsisters in Ahsoka.

          She’s always done VA work. Apparently starting with everquest in 02, and then Artemis in the original God of War in 05.

          So that would have been during Farscapes production, and then during her time on Stargate.

        She was the leader of the Nightsisters in Ahsoka. A bit part, but she had a vocal presence in a couple of episodes.

    My constant proposal for a revival involves these two running an offworld antiquities shop. Some highly dysfunctional Indiana Jones shit from a bookworm with several levels in badass and a roguish chaos magnet for whom things just kinda work out. He’s free to do primary research whenever he’s not fending off children who think his glorified bookshop must be hiding fabulous riches. She’s free to kick around the galaxy in search of lost artifacts, plausible myths, and cheap drinks. The standard episode is her rocking up with a heist plan. Or at least flopping back home with an offhand travel story where he sees an opportunity. It’s character growth and worldbuilding through a series of macguffins.
