Total Recall
Beckinsale plays Lori Quaid in the 2012 remake of Total Recall, alongside actor Colin Farrell, who plays her husband, Douglas Quaid. The film takes place in the future, in a world that is mostly uninhabitable. To escape the hardships of his life, Douglas decides to experience “Rekall,” a process in which any memory can be implanted into one’s head. Shortly after plugging into Rekall, Quaid finds himself in the middle of a worldwide conspiracy where nobody can be trusted. Not even his wife. On her role as Lori:
She’s just a little bit off. She’s come back damaged and wounded and acting out of that place, so it’s fun for an actor.
