    Im slowly making my way through season 3 of House Of Cards and had one of those 10 minutes on Wiki where one article makes you click the next and so on.

    It turns out I learned two things. Kate Mara
    who played Zoe in HOC
    (covered up for those who havent seen season 2 yet) is Rooney Mara's sister and she got her the HOC role after having a word with David Fincher.

    But then I realised. She was in The Social Network? But how? Ive seen that film three times and never noticed the actress who expertly played The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.

    What a transformation!

    Perhaps it's common knowledge for those who have seen both shows but I didn't notice. Sam wasn't a major character though.

    Also John Connors adoptive mother in Terminator 2 (Someone on this forum clued me in on that, was shocked)

    I think she was the cop blown up on the diving board in Lethal Weapon 2 as well.
