Whether lighting up the big screen, or calling the shots behind the scene, actor, director, and producer Brianne Davis is one of the most electric talents to storm Hollywood by force. Starring in one of the most highly-anticipated new dramas with History Channel's military series; Six (2017), is an ambitious drama that follows Navy SEAL Team Six, the best of the best whose mission to eliminate a Taliban leader in Afghanistan goes awry when they uncover a U.S. citizen working as a jihadist fighter with the terrorists. Brianne jumps off the screen as "Lena", a teacher and wife of lead SEAL Team Six commander "Joe Graves" (Sloane). As the pillar of her family and heart of the series, "Lena" leads her family with strength and dignity, as her husband leaves for weeks at a time to complete the world's most dangerous military operations, while she is never quite sure if he will return to her alive.
Brianne was first discovered, at the young age of 12, by an agency that hooked her up with modeling jobs and, soon after, began booking commercial work. Her first taste of acting was after she booked a small speaking role in the widely successful movie, Remember the Titans (2000), starring an all-star cast that included Denzel Washington, Will Patton, Hayden Panettiere, Ryan Gosling and Kate Bosworth, just to name a few. From there, Brianne went on to star in the hit television show, CW's Dawson's Creek (1998), and once graduating from high school, she made the decision to move to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career. Once in LA, Brianne began booking roles in many hit shows, including FX's Nip/Tuck (2003), CBS' CSI: Miami (2002), ABC's Desperate Housewives (2004) and HBO's True Blood (2008).
Davis has also proved her talent as a big screen actress. Her first lead role came in 2005 with the blockbuster hit Jarhead (2005), a drama centered on the life of U.S. marine sniper Anthony Swofford, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, during the Gulf War who struggles to cope with being away from home and fears that his girlfriend, played by Brianne, was cheating on him while he was away. She also starred in the horror film, Prom Night (2008), alongside Brittany Snow, Kellan Lutz and Idris Elba, as the flick's somewhat comedic relief.
Not only is an actor, Brianne also an accomplished director and producer. Thriving behind the camera, as much as in front, she has produced five films with her production company "Give & Take Productions", and has directed three features: The Night Visitor 2: Heather's Story (2016), Psychophonia (2016) and Transfer.
When not in front of the camera, or in the director's chair, Brianne's undeniable passion is in supporting our troops. She can often be found traveling the world on various USO tours and so far has visited 15 bases. While on tour, she has stayed in such places as Iraq and Afghanistan. Stateside, Brianne champions on behalf of veteran programs, especially in getting the necessary post traumatic stress relief that many soldiers desperately need. This is absolutely something she holds near and dear to her heart. Brianne also helps support the homeless, animal shelters, and volunteering around Los Angeles.- Actress

Suzanne DiDonna was born on 22 April 1975 in Brooklyn, New York, USA. She is an actress and writer, known for The Sopranos (1999), Truth (2013) and Into the Dust (2012).- Very little is known about this lovely actress, who had a wonderful debut in Neil Jordan's The Company of Wolves (1984) which was thought to have led to a solid career. However, for one reason or another, she opted only to appear in one more film, Cannon Movie Tales Snow White (1987), which was shot on location in Israel. The dark-haired, pale-skinned Patterson was the perfect choice for the lead role, and in both of the fairy-tale themed films she displayed a great talent for both serious and comedic acting. Since neither of these films were huge commercial successes, Sarah Patterson retired from the big screen and settled down. Sources say she is now married and happy. She finally returned to acting for two small roles in films released in 2002 and 2007.

Anne Parillaud was born in Paris, France on May 6, 1960 and even though all her travels took her to many lands, is still a Paris resident. Anne studied ballet in school, and her first appearance was in the film Un amour de sable (1977) where she played "La jeune fille avec un petit chat" ("The girl with a kitten"). However, her first real role was as "Estelle" in L'hôtel de la plage (1978) and, even though she had only appeared in this film during summer vacation, by then she had caught the show business bug. Anne was in eight other films, and then she gave her breakout performance in her signature role as "Nikita" in the wildly popular La Femme Nikita (1990), which spun off the American remake Point of No Return (1993) starring Bridget Fonda, and the USA Network television series La Femme Nikita (1997) starring Peta Wilson. Anne had taken judo lessons for three months to prepare for this part. Anne said that when acting, she can abandon herself; indeed the character Nikita is nothing like her. Anne hates guns and even said of Nikita: "For a while, she was in me like a demon".
When it comes to which films and directors to work with, Anne has her one rule: it must touch her heart. Obviously director Luc Besson touched her heart, they had a daughter together, but the couple separated shortly after La Femme Nikita (1990); (in 1997, Besson was briefly married to Milla Jovovich, but they divorced). Anne traveled to America to do several films, including Innocent Blood (1992), in which she plays a French vampire. She said of her character "Marie", that she wasn't born a vampire, didn't decide to be one; in that sense, the movie is a parable about dealing with the problem of being different in society. And difference equates to loneliness. Anne is still busy appearing in movies. Offscreen, Anne enjoys simple pleasures such as dancing, and talking with friends. And she is always led by her heart, Anne says she is someone who lives by impulse first. Her many fans would say it seems she has made a lot of right choices.- Actress
