That changes with Vixen: Zero Cool , a high-octane thriller from director Lexi Alexander ( Green Street Hooligans , Punisher: War Zone ).

Mac’s physical transformation is startling. She has shed the ultra-curvy silhouette of her earlier work for a lean, vascular, “wolverine” build. Her body fat is reportedly below 12%.
