Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio (born November 17, 1958 in Lombard, Illinois) is an American actress and singer of Italian descent.
Mastrantonio's first credited screen appearance was in Brian DePalma's Scarface as Gina Montana, sister of Al Pacino's Tony Montana. She achieved prominence in her Academy Award nominated role in The Color of Money, opposite Paul Newman and Tom Cruise. Her other featured roles of the 1980s include Slam Dance, opposite Tom Hulce and The January Man with Kevin Kline. She starred in writer/director James Cameron's science fiction blockbuster The Abyss with Ed Harris. Her most famous role, however, may be Maid Marian in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, in which she was cast as a late replacement for the pregnant Robin Wright.
She has since limited her roles to those which interest her, so that she could devote more time to family. Mastrantonio's only high profile role since 1992's Consenting Adults was that of a fishing boat captain in 2000's The Perfect Storm. She did, however, have a recurring role during the fourth season of the television drama Without a Trace.
She has appeared on Broadway in various musicals, including The Human Comedy and the 2002 revival of Man of La Mancha in which she played Aldonza/Dulcinea, opposite Brian Stokes Mitchell in the title role.
Mastrantonio is married to director Pat O'Connor (who helmed The January Man) since 1990 and is based in London, where the couple resides with their two children.
