Rosa Salazar is ready for battle…
The 30-year-old Latina actress and Maze Runner star will star in Battle Angel Alita, an adaptation of the popular Manga by Yukito Kishiro being produced by James Cameron and directed by Robert Rodriguez.
Set in the 26th century, the story follows an amnesiac female cyborg rescued from a scrapyard and rebuilt. Possessing no memories of her life before being rebuilt but retaining an impressive set of fighting skills, she becomes a bounty hunter while seeking to discover more about her past.
Salazar has previously appeared in Insurgent, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, and FX’s Man Seeking Woman among other credits.
