Michelle Rodriguez | Rotten Tomatoes (2025)

Highest Rated: 100% Inmate #1: The Rise of Danny Trejo (2019)

Lowest Rated: 0% InAPPropriate Comedy (2013)

Birthday: Jul 12, 1978

Birthplace: Bexar County, Texas, USA

In a karmic twist of fate, Michelle Rodriquez's signature roles came in productions whose titles eerily sum up her Hollywood career. Between her striking debut in the female boxing movie "Girlfight" (2000), her turn as Vin Diesel's gearhead girlfriend in the action film "The Fast and the Furious" (2001), and her role as a tough ex-cop on the hit TV series "Lost" (ABC, 2004-10), the titles mirrored her hardened personality and sometimes troubled personal life. She was a raw, talented actress who found the Byzantine maze of Hollywood almost as hard to navigate as the American legal system. Her various arrests for everything from assault to drunk driving temporarily sidetracked her promising career and landed her in jail, but her fighting spirit would not allow her to go down for the count.
