Most recently, Rendón produced and starred in writer/director Adam Brook’s THESE DAYS, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. She can also be seen starring opposite Matt Smith and Merritt Wever in Mary Harron’s haunting feature CHARLIE SAYS, which had its premiere at the Venice Film Festival. She plays the devastatingly complex role of ‘Susan Atkins’, one of Charles Manson’s most devout followers.
