In addition to Johnny Mnemonic, she has had other roles in science fiction productions, such as Starship Troopers, Birds of Prey and Star Trek Nemesis. She played Detective Allison Kerry in the horror/thriller film Saw and its sequels. She made several guest appearances on Friends and Miss Match. She also played one of the leads on the now canceled Point Pleasant. In March 2006, Meyer was in the series premiere episode of Thief as Wanda, the wife of Andre Braugher's character Nick, although her character did not reappear. Meyer has a recurring guest star role on ABC's 2010 series Scoundrels as Mrs. Hong, who seduces Cal West, portrayed by Patrick Flueger.[2]
