Camina Drummer is my favorite Belter character in The Expanse, and she is the show’s best example of the Belter’s struggle. This video sketches out her journey from when she was first introduced in season 2, to when she lost almost everything in season 5. She worked as Fred Johnson’s second in command at Tycho. She was captain of the Behemoth and then Medina Station. And she left it all behind to join a family outside of the conflict only to be dragged back in by Marco Inaros’ Free Navy.
In the fifth season of The Expanse Drummer (Cara Gee) had to decide between risking her crew/polyamorous family lives or joining a man who was responsible for the deaths of Fred and Ashford. While her family doesn’t agree with Marco’s methods they are against the Inner Planets after generations of exploitation.
Drummer has a tremendous character arc from start to finish, a belter’s belter through and through. A dock worker rising through the ranks as a verifiable badass, a competent commander with a moral compass, and one who understands the game enough to wonder if she wants to play it all. We also get to see real humanity, intimacy, and depth in her connection with her family, only to see that tested by the reality around them.
She was there to make sure the belt would be involved in the ring space and then walked away from it. She had a chance to take out Marco but thought that it would lead to more violence if she did. She worked closely with Anderson Dawes and Fred Johnson, both of whom rose to powerful positions, but in the end she felt they lost their way once they got there. Camina Drummer is the best Belter Character on the Expanse.

100% agree. Cara Gee really crushes that role, I love her screen presence so much and I always look forward to seeing more of her arc. I also love how her lifestyle is portrayed and not just added for political correctness. The way she integrates Michio Pa from the books into her persona is why I feel like any book adapted to TV should have the author(s) involved since their world so effortlessly shows how diverse our society is.

for an actress to do so well that the writers of the books and show decide they have to keep her in throughout the whole narrative?..... well that's just plain badassery. Cara Gee is incredible, especially after the performance she pulled off in S06E05. Brought a tear to my eye. What is it about Drummer that makes her a favourite of many Expanse fans? Myself included. I think it can be boiled down to her utter defiance.

Cara Gee's acting is one of the highlights of the series. I'd put Ashford up there also, so it was ashame to lose his character to the story. (But also proved nobody is safe). I look forward to reading the books and plan to do that right after this season ends. The once I've finished reading the first 6(?) books will re-watch the series with that new perspective.

I totally agree. The producers casting of Cara Gee was excellent. The writers did a magnificent job of writing her character arc and how she absorbed several of the book's characters so well. But Cara Gee is really the key to Drummer. She is f'ing brilliant. Such a bad ass, loyal friend, staunch belter and a commanding captain. I was blown away by all of her dramatic scenes.

Drummer actually makes me root for the belters, alongside Miller. She's a legit BADASS. No doubts about it. She has such great charisma (thanks to the actress) and seems to be the character I can agree with as far as plans for the belters goes. She is this solid mix between the extremes of the OPA and the boot-lkcking from Miller. She seems to have such a outside look on things that you can't help but hope she becomes the leader of the belters as she clearly understands what it means to be belter, but also understands how important the inners are to their success

From the interviews I've seen with Cara, she seems to be the actor playing farthest from type. She comes off as light and airy IRL, as opposed to the intense force of nature she portrays in The Expanse. Not to mention that she has done this character while pregnant! She is an incredible actress. Camina Drummer is the case of the perfect storm, where a great actress is given a juicy role, and writers are willing to evolve the character, to accommodate the magic that is starting to happen. My hat is off to the writers, and show runner smart enough to see what was happening.

This is a good cast and I know some of them from other productions, but Cara Gee is new to me and boy does she have range. I know she has done TV but I think her only movie with an A-list actor was Call of the Wild with Harrison Ford, alas that role is quite short. I know she could take any role and be fine but would good in a good big movie about new world indigenous people since she is one, if one could find such a story.

She see’s Naomi and Holden together, and just steps back as well.

More shows based on books need to do this, it keeps things familiar but surprising for book readers and allows for an easy way to trim narrative flab. Much as I love Bull, and to a lesser extent Michio Pa (both in the show in completely different roles) it feels like Drummer is an amalgam of these characters that winds up being more than the sum of her parts, aided by a superb performance. Also, this is how you write a 'strong female character'. All other franchises please take note!
@dealspeed6756
@dealspeed6756 2 года назад
Exactly. She manages that incredible strength without lording it over others. Most strong female leads are horrible; they always make them treat men as children who need their hand held, which just makes them powerful bullies. Drummer manages to be strong af without all that BS.
@DocHogan
@DocHogan 2 года назад
This one of my mixed pro’s and con’s. I absolutely LOVE the screen Drummer, and Cara’s portrayal is deific! I understand the amalgamation of Bull and Pa into the Drummer character, and I’m in favor of it much more than I’d’ve expected. What I don’t like, what I actually *hate*, is what they DID do with Michio on-screen (keep in mind that I prefer book-Michio over book-Bull). IMO, they should’ve just left the character out, and given the onscreen “Michio” a different name, rather than turn a strong book character into a wet noodle (Also, I also LOVE the onscreen Ashford much more so than book-Asher. I need a spin-off series following the history of Ashford)

Every Drummer moment is my favorite, but if I have to choose one it would be in season 5 when Coral is explaining why they have to go after the Roci because it's a symbol of inner/belter assimilation and on and on. Drummer turns and rolls her eyes as if to say "oh-la-la, somebody's getting laid in belter college" In all seriousness I wonder how many Expanse fans will have daughters who get named Camina. If I was having a little girl I'd name her Camina, it's a beautiful name and I'd hope my daughter would grow up to be a strong and smart as the character.

Astoundingly good actress (Cara Gee is so different in real life!) and the best character in TV sci fi ever I really think so. I was very impressed by the love hate relationship she had with Ashford. Absolutely first class acting and lines which is not necessarily the case with The Expanse itself, although I rate it second to Babylon 5 in my personal list - both shows vastly transcending ST:TNG, and showing what could and should have been done with DS9 and Voyager, the latter especially. Number three the reinvented Battlestar Galactica and number four NuWHo Russell T Davies and Moffatt eras ONLY. Would be interested to see a video on Babylon 5 influences on The Expanse, or on the Expanse novels, with Laconian ships using Shadow technology eh?

The conversations between Drummer and Ashford were mesmerising, in a show with so many great characters she was my favourite along with That guy.

Cara Gee brings acting chops to the role, but she has also drawn on her background as an indigenous woman to relate to the Belter cause. Clean drinking water for First Nations communities is a major issue, as are other resource/land rights, plus the hundreds of years of systemic racism and cultural genocide.

Hands down Drummer is one of the most influential characters in the entire IP. Even from under a bootheel she managed to leverage the right people in the right place to get where she needed to be. She is the belt, for real.

The Expanse had amazing casting all the way down the line. Some of my favorites are Aghdashloo, Cara Gee and Thomas Jane. Even a couple of actors who didn't wow me at first won me over as the show progressed. What impressed me the most about this show was the sharp, thoughtful and logical dialog. When Chrisjen Avasarala is planning, playing, hoping, gambling with life and death, attempting to build alliances, or investigating mysteries, it is very convincing. Wonderful writing. And the actress played the part beautifully. It's some of the best dialog I've ever seen in any genre. When the show started I expected Chrisjen's character and story arc to not be able to continue at the depth of implied analysis that she exhibits. I thought the writers would get lazy or be unable to match the challenge they built for themselves in such a layered, wise and politically savvy character as the story became more complicated. I was quite happy to be wrong.

I watched the show just to get a feel of the world because we are playing the tabletop rpg with friends. Drummer is the only character for which I never pushed the forward button. I never got bored or tired of watching her scenes. Incredible performance.

I was heartbroken when Ashford was killed, because I love the working relationship that Camina and Ashford established. I also got those similar vibes from Harris and Camina although it didn't last too long. Ugh, Camina is amazing!!!! She and the Belters represent the voiceless and lower rungs of the social classes. I was so happy when Holden took the presidential status all for a brief touching speech to then give it up to Camina referencing back in Season 2 (If i'm not mistake) about the rings access truly and ought to belong to the Belters. The circle became complete.

I'm loving every one of the characters and most especially these actors in The Expanse, they are all top notch and the story lines allow each character and actor to have their key strengths shine. One point I've noticed is the great diversity of the different ethnicities of these actors and their characters... they are from everywhere and that's just how it is in real life, a great melting pot of folks from all over. The show just keeps getting better in this new Fall 2021 season into Spring 2022, as the characters and actors each really come into their own. Can't wait for each new episode.

A few years late to the party, but we just caught up on the entire show over the last few weeks. And what a tour-de-force performance by Cara Gee. That moment where she gets shot in the gut, the missus and I were like “Nooooo don’t kill Drummer!” Then when the tables turned and she wastes the mutineers, just cemented her then and there as the best character on the show. And everything after that just added to it. Incredible character, incredible performance. Can’t wait to play the Telltale game 🙌

I think Cara Gee started reasonably strong with that character. When she was introduced she was a good supporting actor. But, I remember vividly the scene where she is reviewing the battle damage to the Rocinante…she gets her first chance to really deliver a character-developing exposition…and she goes from giddy black humor, to sincere respect, and finishes with this great line to Naomi where she says “…I see you’re from some rock…” with a really aggressive gesture towards her own neck tattoo. It’s an incredibly subtle way of communicating her intense pride as a belter using a seemingly self-deprecating statement. There is something about Gee and her delivery of that line…I thought “Wow, I LIKE her!” and I Immediately paused and rewound the video…at least three or four times just to watch her deliver “…I see you’re from some rock…” again and again. It’s just obvious from that scene that you could not possibly put Drummer on screen too much. Cara Gee killed that role.

She's a brilliant commander who truly cares for her people and who's got a moral compass. These are wonderful and honourable attributes. I truly admire her character. I agree with you when you say "Drummer is The Belt". I dare say she's probably the most admirable character of them all. Many of the characters are, but as leaders are concerned she's number 1. Cara Gee's performance is Top.

Drummer is my favourite woman character in science fiction. Absolute badass with so much relatable stuff going on in her personal life, and Cara Gee's performance is terrific. Plus Cara is so warm and funny in real life: her post show chats with Wes Chatham (Amos) on his podcast just enhanced the whole thing.

Watching the S6E5 Ty and that Guy video and learning how much she put into that character and inspired them to continue to evolve her role was a treat and kind of what I expected had happened.
