Because of it, she got to star alongside Keanu Reeves for years. The sci-fi series launched her into fame, and before that, Moss had essentially no background in acting. 

Occasional Netflix Movies

Since The Matrix, Moss hasn't landed any hard-hitting roles. She plays various characters in Netflix Marvel shows. Currently, she's reprised her role in Jessica Jones.
