Ever since The Continental premiered on Prime Video, a prequel to the John Wick films, fans of the franchise have been talking about the Adjudicator, the character who appears with a white mask covering the lower half of his face.
The series hasn’t revealed much about his subject yet, but the fear he inspires in tough guys like Cormac (Mel Gibson) is enough to gauge his influence and the threat he poses. The scene where he unmasks off-camera also hints at a horribly mutilated face…
Irish actress Katie McGrath plays this mysterious character. Originally aiming for a career as a fashion journalist, the latter discovered film footage while working as a costume designer for the historical series The Tudors.
On the recommendation of production members, he decided to try his hand at acting and got a role in the second season of the show. But it was another historical work that brought her to the public eye, because in 2008 Katie McGrath got the role of Morgan, one of the main characters of the TV series Merlin.
In film, Katie McGrath rose to prominence in 2015 with her appearance in Jurassic World, one of the biggest box office hits of all time. The following year, she returned to the world of King Arthur as Elsa in Guy Ritchie’s feature film based on the legend of Excalibur.
2016 also marks the year the latter took on his most iconic role. From season 2 of the DC Comics series Supergirl, Kathy McGrath lends her personality to Lana Luthor, an ally of the heroine Kara Danvers, but is still haunted by the diabolical crimes committed by her brother Lex Luthor.
Having become a well-known and appreciated face in the general public, Katie McGrath proves her talent as an actress with The Continental. Despite a role limited to a few scenes and a mask that covers half of his face, the Irish actor literally steals the show from the other performers of the series.
The final episode of the mini-series The Continental can be seen on Prime Video this Friday, October 6 from 2pm.
