Many actresses (or least starlets) have played robots or androids in science-fiction movies. Most of these have been of the fembot variety: indistinguishable in either appearance or behaviour from the starlet in other roles until their electrics start to smoke. But fortunately there have been a number of honourable exceptions.
This section contains before & after images of actresses made up as: robots; androids (humanoid robots); cyborgs (bionic beings); and mechanical dolls. The emphasis here is on makeup so you won't find many fembots or robot costumes (though I could not ignore Metropolis) so sorry there's no Galatea even though she was wonderfiul.
For more specialist and comprehensive treatment of robotomized actresses you can visit a number of dedicated sites, including Rotwang’s Robopolis and the Gynoid Gallery.
