She found fame as the lead singer of British band Garbage, but now Shirley Manson is a fully-fledged actress, with a starring role in a major US TV series.
These tantalising photos show Manson, who stars in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, morphing from a disguise as a urinal into a terminator.
In the dramatic scenes that follow, her character is then seen killing an employee.
