Smart, Fearless & Tenacious.
Rosa Salazar does an amazing job of portraying strong complex women characters on screen. She played the ever-present Brenda on The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials, a character who, while not quite at the forefront, is always a major player in whatever is going on. She took on the role of the dauntless Lynn in The Divergent Series: Insurgent, and nabbed a role as Maria in American Horror Story: Murder House. In February, you will witness her playing her most exciting role to date in the upcoming manga-inspired sci-fi masterpiece directed by Robert Rodriguez called Alita: Battle Angel. In this, Rosa plays the role of the lead cyborg, Alita, adapted from the cyberpunk manga series Gunnm created by Yukito Kishiro. But it's not just her impressive resume that drew us in—it was her honesty and fearlessness to speak her mind.
