I wonder if she'll turn out to be a company representative for Yutani... looking after their investments in the journey... Damon Lindelof wrote that "finding out wich company she's a face for is part of the fun." This could be possible if they were indeed considering Michelle Yeoh for the part.... an asian actress for an asian corporation.
^THiS! i always thought she might be a "double agent". industry spy, maybe?
and in regards to pearce performance: it may be over the top, but i think the man has something hidden in his pocket, we know only what when seeing this movie. he's in a stadium, with a lot of people and he makes it very clear, that he's the boss and the focus. he quite enjoyed it.
it is still business, what he's doing and he just perform his speech as this egomaniac would do to convince people joining his "new world order"; bit polemic, i know. even when you work in a call-center, trying to sell some provider-related offers, than you have to be somekind over the top, to convince people.
