Series about police investigations almost always do not differ in the variety of scenario moves and storylines. Sometimes the chain of events is easily predicted by an experienced film fan who can already at the beginning of the story show the villain and his assistants who have committed a crime. But the Blind Spot project, which first appeared on television in September 2015, is certainly not on the list of such series.
Tattoos as a key to the investigation
The fact that this series is unlike the others proves the original, intriguing beginning: when carrying out an operation to prevent a terrorist attack, a naked woman is found who is unaware of her past, whose entire body is covered with strange tattoos. Understanding that these tattoos are not just a collection of insignificant characters and words, but a key, comes to the FBI agent Kurt Weller, whose name is also displayed on the body of a found stranger who has lost her memory.
Alexander - girl with key tattoos
The series fell in love with the audience and was warmly received by critics. It is possible he would not have been so successful if not for the talented actors who had professionally shown themselves in him. The “blind spot” left, according to them, only bright impressions of the work on the film. And the producer Greg Berlanti, whose rich track record has included such successful projects as Strela and Flash, is probably glad that he managed to assemble a close-knit team, with which he continues to work on this series. And while the result is positive, the audience is satisfied, fans are added.
The actors showed themselves wonderfully. “Blind spot” due to their images turned out to be bright and watchable, despite the name of the series. But this is not surprising, because those who played the main roles have been appearing on screens in various series for more than a year. One of these old-timers in acting is Jamie Alexander, a native of South Carolina. Alexander is a pseudonym, the real name of the girl who was born in the spring of 1984, not so catchy and memorable - Tarbusch.
Jamie was not a lonely child, several brothers grew up with her. In childhood and adolescence, the girl was not particularly distinguished by talents, once she was even expelled from the school of excellence for her inability to get into notes. The first failures did not affect the choice of profession Jamie. She was distracted by playing sports, but she did not forget about the career of the actress. Fate was supportive and soon gave her a chance to prove herself in the comedy film Trap for the Squirrel.
Jamie later appeared in the series “Kyle XY” as Jesse. The girl worked on this project for several seasons. The high point of Alexander can be called the role of Seth in the film "Thor" from Marvel comics. The girl had a lot of work before the series Blind Spot. Actors become successful if they are removed, albeit infrequently, but in expensive projects. Such can be called the film "The Return of the Hero." In it, Alexander was lucky to star in the role of Taylor Dolan.
Jamie was given not very good fame as a “woman dissolving a family”. Peter Facinelli, known for his work at Twilight, fell in love with Alexander and left his wife and children for her in 2012.
Actors: "Blind Spot" (TV series)
An even more successful career was made by her partner in the film, who played an FBI agent, Sullivan Stapleton - an actor of Australian descent. Born in Melbourne in 1977, June 14th. Already in the mid-90s he appeared on the set on the project "Neighbors". This was followed by a series of acting in television series and feature films, among which the dramatic genre of the painting "River Street" and the thriller of the television format "Profile of a serial killer."
In the list of his roles, we will also find the film “Witch Hunt” and the series “Good Guys - Bad Guys”. In the 2000s, Stapleton confidently climbed up the career ladder. In the final credits next to his last name appeared such names as Daniel Radcliffe and Rod Hardy. Among the series with his participation, the most famous can be called "Sea Patrol" and "Crime Australia."
Career growth of actors
One of the significant peaks in Stapleton’s career is the wolf laws thriller, shot by David Michaud at the end of the first decade of the 2000s. Critics reacted very favorably to this picture, which received several awards and was included in the list of nominees for the Oscar and Golden Globe awards.
In 2011, he appeared in the movie “The Hunter”, then became a partner on the set of Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling and Sean Penn in the project “Hunting Gangsters”. In 2013, he got a role in the historical blockbuster 300 Spartans: The Rise of an Empire.
What other actors starred in the series? Blind Spot is another good luck for Ashley Susan Johnson, a California-born girl born on August 9, 1983. Her dad led the trial, and her mother was involved in the promotion of films. In 2000, a father with liver cancer died.
Few people know that the first partner on the set for this charming girl was Jean-Claude Van Damme - the idol of youth of the 80s and 90s of the 20th century. This happened on the set of the film "AWOL." Ashley, who played the role of the girl Nicole, at that time was only seven years old. However, the "finest hour" of the actress can be called a work in the movie "What Women Want", where Ashley had the chance to become the daughter of the hero Mel Gibson. The girl not only plays in the movies, she also enjoys voicing animated films and computer games.
The American movie system is running smoothly. If the series "Blind Spot" is successful, the actors and their roles will be in demand. At the moment, the producers of this series are looking forward with optimism, rejoicing at high audience ratings, which means that the above actors have nothing to worry about - they are provided with work in the near future.
