Laura Vandervoort

Laura Vandervoort earned my attention as a Supergirl who carried real steel beneath the spandex, and the biography explains why: a York University graduate and trained karateka, she brings a grounded physical conviction to genre roles. From Smallville's Kara to V's Lisa to a serial killer on Haven, she slides between heroine and villain with a range that television too often underuses. What interests me now is her shift toward directing; I am always rooting for actors who quietly build a second skill set. She strikes me as a durable, underrated talent playing a long game.
