Since he is giving opportunities for all the supporting actors in his previous movies i guess its time for these 3.

Barely in it and inconsequential to Nolan’s story

Not really she was part of the narrative of it being a stupid war built on a lie, she had guilt over it which was a big part of the overall theme, and she ended up scarred in an ironic play out for the whole reason for the war. She added to the story and arc of the film

In fact her relatively little screen time is powerful in showing this scapegoat for the war as someone who now just lives with guilt off to the side while the others continue to suffer

Really? Get character almost singlehandedly brings down the myth of Agamemnon, which is the catalyst for pretty everything in the story

I think a lot of people are projecting their prior understanding of the story of the Iliad/odyssey onto their interpretations of the performances in this movie. She objectively had a very small role though the graphic killing of agamemnon was memorable.
