Meet Serious Rogers

Cooper Harris IS Serious Rogers

I’m happy to announce that Cooper Harris was offered and accepted the role of Serious Rogers in
Woman on Fire: The Resurrection of Serious Rogers

Cooper is an accomplished actress and stunt woman who loves a challenge. She recently wrapped the first season of Apocalyptic Playground — a sci-fi web series created by James Rhodimer — Director of Photography for “Resurrection of Serious Rogers”

Serious is tough. An assassin. A broken human being who found strength and focus in her athletic prowess and her ability to kill without emotion. The product of a troubled life, Serious gunny-sacked her emotions. She didn’t succumb to life, she turned her deep rooted anger and failing sense of self-worth into a murderous art form. She’s a killer, but she’s still all woman. She’s cold, but her heart can be touched.

And soon she will be reborn.

I’m also pleased to announce that Mercedes Manning has accepted the role of TRIXIE

Trixie is simply a perky chick from the mid-west who found herself caught in the middle of a political conspiracy. As the nanny to a morally corrupt and perverted senator, Trixie beauty got in the way and now she must die. Her only chance is to somehow touch the heart of murderous assassin who came to kill her and convince her to turn away from the life she knows.

Vanity is a blood-thirsty bitch out to make a name for herself and Serious Rogers is in the way. She’s Mystery’s right-hand woman and has survived assignments in South America, Afghanistan and Hong Kong. Killing Trixie and Serious will add two valuable notches to her belt…if only she can find them.

Jeff-Torres

I’m also pleased to announce that JEFF TORRES, whom I’ve worked with on two previous films, joins the cast as MYSTERY. A leader. A charmer. A puppeteer of men.

Jesse is quickly making a respected name for himself as a feature and web series editor. I’m happy he has joined the crew as key editor.

====================

Since January 2009 I have been talking about Serious Rogers. Many issues have gotten in the way and now I believe it was all for the best. I couldn’t be more pleased with the team I’ve put together to make the film. Hopefully our audience will be pleased as well.

Speaking of audience: Resurrection of Serious Rogers is a web series that is not for everyone. There are many web series out there with a focus on comedy and humor. They have loyal followers, but those followers aren’t for us.

RSR is a strong drama — a thriller with action elements. It has a procedural feel to it. If you are a fan of TV series like 24 (with Kiefer Sutherland), Burn Notice, In Plain Sight or Law and Order I can guarantee that you’ll be amongst the shows most loyal and steadfast fans.
