Which model starred as attorney Kate McQuean in the 1995 action film “Fair Game”?
Answer
Cindy Crawford
Cindy Crawford starred as attorney Kate McQuean in the 1995 action film “Fair Game.”
The film was based on a novel by Paula Gosling and paired Crawford with William Baldwin, who played a police officer protecting her character. It marked Crawford’s leading feature-film debut during the height of her supermodel fame.
Crawford had already become widely known through magazine covers, runway work, beauty campaigns and television appearances. Her recognizable look made her one of the most commercially successful models of the 1980s and 1990s, but “Fair Game” was a rare attempt to position her as a conventional film star.
The movie is sometimes confused with other model-led films from the period. “Fair Game” is specifically the 1995 action thriller directed by Andrew Sipes, not the unrelated 2010 political thriller starring Naomi Watts and Sean Penn. Crawford’s role was fictional and unrelated to her real work as a fashion model.
