Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller’s pulp classic Sin City came out in 2005, and a more seasoned Jessica Alba brought a different take on vengeful and strong willed dancer Nancy Callahan.
“I was so young and I wasn’t comfortable in my own skin,” said Alba, who in the years since has collaborated with Rodriguez in the Machete films and Spy Kids: All The Time in the World in 4D. “Being on a stage and dancing – it was all kind of terrifying to me . . . I was terrified. I didn’t want to make a misstep and I knew how incredible this world was.”
