Someplace down the road, she waltzes into the Continental, wields a flame thrower, runs into Mr. Wick, and asks him how she will develop into extra like him. To which he dryly replies that it already seems to be like she has.

Different co-stars embody Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Dune), Catalina Sandino Moreno (From), David Castañeda (Umbrella Academy), and The Strolling Useless‘s Norman Reedus.
