Black Rabbit is Netflix's latest thriller starring Jude Law and Jason Bateman as brothers Jake and Vince Friedken, who own a restaurant in New York City.
When the pair reunite after Vince's stint at rehab, things begin to spiral as his bad decisions catch up with them.
While the series centres around the brothers, a key storyline involves Jules Zablonski - a wealthy artist and friend to Jake's music business partner, Wes (Sopé Dìrísù).
Zablonski is a regular at the restaurant, often attending as part of Wes' entourage. He's accused of drugging and assaulting Anna (Abbey Lee), who is one of the bartenders there.
The character is played by John Ales, who viewers may recognise from Euphoria, in which he plays Jules Bennett's father David Vaughn.
