Gina Torres in The Matrix movies

[stormkeeper_lovedoris]

I haven't done a very diligent job of following the careers of the actors from Firefly. So I read that Gina Torres (Zoe) was in the 2nd and 3rd Matrix movies. I saw those movies years ago, before I became a Firefly fan and I do not remember her roles in them at all. How big was her part? Big enough for me to rent the movies?

Not big. (Funnily enough, the third film was just on this evening and I caught the very end.) She has a minor role playing, I believe, the widow of one of the characters who was killed in the first movie. I can only remember two scenes that she was in off the top of my head, and they weren't very long.

Still, it was neat to see her and think, "Zoe!"

I managed to find something that may be of interest.

If you have a fast internet connection that will allow you to stream video without too much trouble, you can catch the third movie here (http://tv-links.co.uk/listings/4/5645) and save yourself the rental fee - especially for only about one minute of Gina screen-time. (You can find her at about the 39-minute mark.)

Thanks for the link - and for the info!

Her parts weren't too big. I don't remember her that much in the 3rd one (I don't remember much about the third one).
For both movies combined she's on the screen for less the 15 minutes. they're more like cameos cause she's married to Morpheus(SP?).

Actually, I was pretty sure that she's married to Link, and the sister of Tank and Dozer.

Thanks for weighing in. :-) I think what Razycrandomgirl means is that Gina Torres is married to the actor who played Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne).

I meant in real life, sorry

Ha, no worries. Just me being dumb.

[razycrandomgirl.livejournal.com]

Not so. I was being obscure and random.:-)

Maybe I'll look to see if there's a clip on You Tube of one of her scenes or something.
