Wild Cat

Aloof, fiercely independent actress who plays by her own rules.

Torri Higginson, best known for playing Dr. Elizabeth Weir in Stargate Atlantis, is known for her understated, self-possessed presence both on and off screen — someone who guards her private life carefully and avoids the Hollywood spotlight. She brings an aloof intelligence and creative independence to her roles, never seeking celebrity for its own sake. Her selective career choices and quiet intensity mark her as someone who does things entirely on her own terms, the hallmark of the wild-cat.
