In the early part of the 2000s, she could be seen in supporting roles in the comedy Rat, the biopic Ned Kelly, and the indie ensemble drama Intermission. In 2005, Condon starred alongside Jet Li and Morgan Freeman in the action-drama Unleashed. That same year, she was cast in her most prominent and acclaimed role yet, that of Octavia of the Julii on the ambitious BBC/HBO co-production Rome. The great-niece of Julius Caesar and the older sister of Caesar's successor, Octavian, the character offered plenty of opportunities for Condon to wow audiences and critics with her performance. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi
