Cherie Mendez is a New York–trained actress known for bringing intelligence, elegance, and emotional complexity to powerful women.

Her television credits include CBS’s The Equalizer, Blue Bloods, and Bull, as well as STARZ’s Power and Netflix’s Hunters. On screen, Cherie has stepped into the worlds of attorneys, politicians, executives, wealthy wives, and other women accustomed to having a voice in the room—often with much more going on beneath the surface.

Her film work includes Revelation Road: The Black Rider, opposite James Denton, and the dark comedy Rubber Room, for which she received the Best Supporting Actress award at the Long Island International Film Expo.

A graduate of the William Esper Studio in New York City, Cherie brings a grounded, truthful approach to characters who are polished on the outside but layered, complicated, and deeply human underneath.

She is especially drawn to elevated drama, crime, legal, political, and character-driven stories—and to women whose strength doesn't tell the whole story.
