Carla Gugino is an actress who frequently works with two directors whom I enjoy: Robert Rodriguez and Zack Snyder. While Gugino has been acting since she was 15, appearing on such shows as Saved By The Bell, The Wonder Years and Doogie Howser, M.D., it wasn’t until she started turning up in Robert Rodriguez films like Spy Kids and Sin City that I really began to take notice of her. Then she started turning up in Zack Snyder films (Watchmen and Sucker Punch), and I was hooked. She’s a quality actress, and considering she turns 40 today, she’s one hot tamale.
