Another actress involved has been identified by fans as Dichen Lachman, best known for her role as Ms. Casey in “The Order.” Rahman has extensive experience in genre films and TV shows, including appearances in Replica, War for the Planet of the Apes, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Supergirl, The 100 and Jurassic World Dominion.
