Jenette Goldstein

She was awarded the 1987 Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as space marine Private Vasquez in Alien 2: El regreso (1986).

[on describing how James Cameron convinced the studio executives to cast her as Vasquez in his film Aliens, despite that she had no prior acting roles] It took him two weeks to convince Fox, to go back and say, 'No no, this is who I want,'. They said, 'No, she's never done a film.' [He said,] 'Yes, I know, yes, I know, I know, I don't care.' You know, he's pretty fearless.
