Space is vast and unknowable, and we are all but distant points in a constellation of mysterious form. And so it is that J.J. Abrams’ movie about space has cast another obscure object, whose true purpose will only be revealed in its time. Her name is Christina Chong and she is British, in the sense that man-made borders can define us. You may have briefly glimpsed her in series such as Doctor Who and 24: Live Another Day—spied her like a passing landmark, whose déjà-vu illusion of familiarity only serves to disorient you further. She also recently landed the female lead in the digital feature Halo: Nightfall, which has not actually premiered yet. Nevertheless, you must trust that she can be seen in it, the same way you trust that there are stars and planets far, far beyond the limits of our galaxy. Sometimes these stars and planets have fights, and Christina Chong will be among them.
