Lady Justice
May 2015. Lady Justice is an Avengers-inspired satire with me playing the evil Doctor Telepathy. This was my first Decent Human shoot and first time playing for Ken since The Bachelorette Project back in 2013; I have been wanting to play with Leanna since I saw her in the award-winning Backtrack short in 2014. Fun that I got to play comedy with Brian Troxell since our previous work on the dramatic Bad Blood.
