Career

Law worked alongside director Adrian Picardi with producers Eric Ro and Don Le, to create a low budget web series called The Resistance.[5] Picardi was the series' official creator and director. The show was later picked up by Starz which led to Law's casting in Spartacus: Blood and Sand in 2009.[6] In 2011, Law completed an action-oriented project called "3 Minutes" with director Ross Ching, producers Don Le and George Wang, starring Harry Shum, Jr., Stephen "tWitch" Boss (the runner up on season 4 of Fox's So You Think You Can Dance), and herself.[4][7]

Since 2013, she has had a recurring role on The CW television series Arrow as Nyssa al Ghul, the daughter of the notorious leader of the League of Assassins, Ra's al Ghul.[8][9]

In 2019, Law was cast as co-lead in the CBS pilot Alive, as medical examiner Elizabeth Lavenza, whose husband Mark Escher (Ryan Phillipe) is brought back to life by the mysterious Dr Frankenstein (Aaron Staton).[10] Later that year she joined the cast of CBS's Hawaii Five-0 for the series' tenth season.[11][12]
