I had a “Uh, let’s see…” moment so I had to make a trip to IMDB for these.

Garcelle Beauvais  
Jennifer Lewis  
Viola Davis  
Maggie Q  
Grace Park  
Michelle Yeoh  
Tia Carrere  
Rosario Dawson  
Paz Dela Huerta

Just to reiterate that I do like Saldana (She was great in Guardians of the Galaxy and was a pretty decent Uhura) and it seems Hollywood likes her and can lean on her to perform well in her roles. I wouldn’t mind seeing more actors like her getting more roles though.
