Jackie Carrizosa

Jackie admitted that since she doesn't watch television she was only vaguely aware of Rihanna as a pop star before she met her, but that Berg persuaded her to join the film when he sent her a message after watching her play football. Rihanna came to base her entire character on Jackie. This was encouraged by director Peter, who was intrigued by Jackie's tomboy personality, and willingness to throw herself into traditionally 'male' activities without holding back.
The Umbrella singer clearly became attached to her tutor, and has since said: 'My character’s name is Raikes. She’s a weapons officer, she’s not afraid of anything. She loves weapons, she knows them — not only her weapons, but every other weapon on the ship. We had this bad ass chick on set, her name is Jackie, she was also in the Navy. I was playing what she does in real life. She was all tattooed up and I just looked at her and I was like, You are Raikes. I watched her and really tried to get in her character. She’s fearless and she’s one of the boys and it’s really fun to explore that'.
