SPOTLIGHT!
Actress Natalie Roy
–One of the most affable talents on the planet, past NB Film Co-op member Natalie Roy who is now based in New York, has the undeniably luminous features that have graced indie films as well as television in shows such as “The Detour” and “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”.
– Recently, she showed her feisty side on “Blindspot” as Courtney, a no-nonsense lawyer of a high-powered Wall Street guy accused of multiple crimes as she reveals he’s a victim of the hackers collective known as 3 Blind Mice.
– Natalie is a force of nature alongside Sullivan Stapleton and Jaimie Alexander so it has certainly whet our desire to see in more dramatic turns. Her juicy role on the praiseworthy TV Pilot “East” would come to mind.
