Mercedes Manning is complex, mysterious, vulnerable, and seductive. As an attorney who challenges her superior (Patrick Wilson) in Darren Aronofsky's forthcoming "Zipper", or a career woman with lustful intentions in Hulu's "Strictly Sexual: The Series", or the statuesque object of desire opposite Wes Bentley and Julian Sands in "Hirokin", Mercedes' intellectual and sexual power are complicated by her piercing emotional depth. Opportunistic yet compassionate, wanton but reserved, cunning yet sensitive, she is the reluctant vixen who will do what is necessary to get what she wants.
