Deborah Ann has joined teams with the entertainment powerhouse Netflix in its new original action-drama Marvel’s Daredevil. Epitomizing both the “action” and the “drama” of the genre, Woll plays ‘Karen Page’—an enigmatic character at the helm of the series’ dramatic turns, most of which send her crashing into the life of co-star Charlie Cox’s character, ‘Matt Murdock.’

Woll is no stranger to dramatic roles. She skyrocketed to fame as the wildly popular baby-vamp ‘Jessica Hamby’ on HBO’s True Blood. During her hiatus from “True Blood,” she was cast in such films as “Mother’s Day” (2010), “Little Murder” (2011), “Seven Days in Utopia” (2011), “Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You” (2011), “Catch .44” (2011), “Ruby Sparks” (2012), “Highland Park” (2013), “Meet Me in Montenegro” (2014), and “Forever” (2015). More recently, Woll is set to star in “The Automatic Hate,” alongside Joseph Cross and Adelaide Clemens. The indie drama premiered in the Narrative Spotlight category at SXSW 2015. Other tv credits include guest-starring roles in shows such as “Life,” “ER,” “The Mentalist,” and “My Name is Earl.”

Rosario Dawson
(Actress – Daredevil [Claire Temple]; Sin City; Sin City: A Dame to Kill For [Gail]; Men in Black II; Clerks II)

Dawson was awarded the “Best Actress in a Motion Picture” Award at the 2009 NAACP Image Awards for her performance in Seven Pounds.

Dawson made a huge impact in the 2005 Robert Rodriguez/Frank Miller film noir drama Sin City and the crime-thriller sequel Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. Dawson also co-starred in the Oliver Stone epic Alexander alongside an all-star cast including Colin Farrell, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, and Jared Leto. She was also seen co-starring with Dwayne Johnson and Christopher Walken in Universal’s action/comedy The Rundown.

Dawson’s other film credits include: Spike Lee’s He Got Game, Light it Up, Josie and the Pussycats, and of course Marvel’s Daredevil on Netflix.

DAREDEVIL, created by Drew Goddard, is an Emmy nominated Action/Crime Drama starring Rosario Dawson, Charlie Cox, Deborah Ann Wool among others. DAREDEVIL premiered to rave reviews on March 18, 2016.
