My Take
Danielle Cormack is, to me, a textbook example of an actor who built real range away from the Hollywood machine. From the original cast of Shortland Street to the Amazon Ephiny in Xena and the hardened Bea Smith in Wentworth, she has shown a willingness to inhabit tough, layered women rather than easy roles. I admire that she keeps one foot in the theatre, which I think gives her screen work its grounded, muscular quality. New Zealand has produced a remarkable number of serious performers, and Cormack stands among the ones whose craft, rather than celebrity, defines her. That is precisely the kind of career I respect.
