Rosario Dawson, 28, is fearless. She plays a woman who is raped and seeks revenge in the NC-17 rated thriller Descent, which opens this weekend in limited release. She also produced the film through her production company, Trybe, and has her comic book, Occult Crimes Taskforce, her charity work, and a slew of acting roles keeping her busy.

Donning a black shawl, striped blouse, black pants, a black bracelet on one arm and a brown bracelet on the other, her citrus-smelling perfume wafts. But she isn’t all glamour. Her intelligence is striking, but because she is sitting beside director/writer Talia Lugacy, she is relatable.

In this interview, Rosario, who is single after dating Jason Lewis for two years, talks about the movie, her relationships, heading back to Broadway and her comic book.
