A well-known Hollywood actress was recently spotted riding the New York City subway — and many people may not have realized who she was.
The woman is Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, now 67. She became famous in 1983 for her powerful role in Scarface, where she played Gina Montana, the sister of Al Pacino’s character. The film helped launch her career and made her a recognizable face in Hollywood.
During the 1980s and 1990s, Mastrantonio worked with some of the biggest stars of her generation. She appeared alongside Tom Cruise in The Color of Money, earning an Academy Award nomination. She later starred with Kevin Costner in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and appeared in The Perfect Storm with George Clooney.
Although she was once a regular presence on the big screen, Mastrantonio has kept a lower profile in recent years. She has continued working in both film and theater, including earning a Tony nomination for her stage performance in the early 2000s.
Her recent subway sighting is a reminder that even well-known actors live ordinary lives. Today, she appears comfortable away from the spotlight, enjoying a quieter chapter after decades in the entertainment industry.
