Natasha Henstridge never makes any one's list of actors with serious Native American ancestry, despite that two of her grandparents (grandfather & grandmother) were Mi'kmaq (Micmac); this, maybe, because she looks so Nordic? In any case, she is of serious Canadian Aboriginal heritage. She is most famous for her roles in the Species franchise, but she is also the star this lesser John Carpenter Sci-Fi horror, that also features Wanda de Jesus (of Mestizo Borikén (Puerto Rican) ancestry and Pam Grier who has stated that she has some Native ancestry and has assayed roles of women of African and "American Indian" descent. I should also mention that the movie also stars Rodney A. Grant of the Omaha Nation.
