CY: Your career just over the last decade, I believe in film, has been a climb of independent movies and studio films and box office hits, but getting the opportunity to open your own movie is still a really big deal, especially for a woman. With this movie [Colombiana], what does this big moment mean to you?

ZS: “It means so much. Besides the fact it’s a Luc Besson movie and I’m incarnating one his femme fatale characters he’s been known for delivering and delivering really, really well. That to me was an honor to get to work with a director like that because he’s been amongst other directors in my bucket list of people to work with. I love the fact that it was also a physically challenging movie where you know usually it’s male actors that get to be the protagonist in these action movies and for it to have been a female and also a Latina female, it made me feel so happy and humbled.”
