Hollman is widely recognized for starring as "Saxa" on the hit STARZ series Spartacus: War of the Damned and Spartacus: Vengeance, one of the most buzzed about shows in STARZ history.

Born in Michigan, Hollman was raised by her father Hart Hollman, a violist for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and her mother Julie, a master pianist. No stranger to the arts, Hollman spent countless hours in the Opera House and Orchestra Hall surrounding herself with classical brilliance. In her teen years, she decided to pursue a career in the arts herself, and moved to New York City. There, she studied at various acclaimed acting studios and honed in on her craft of choice: bringing to life a versatile array of characters on stage and on the silver screen. In 2004, Hollman moved out to Los Angeles. Within one year of being in LA, she started landing projects. Aside from acting, Hollman is the CEO of Visual Impact Now, a non-profit based in Los Angeles.

Over the years they have serviced over 7,000 LA youth with eye care and glasses.
The original film recounted last century the struggle of two friends against the ambitious and ruthless ex-wife of one of them and his new lover (both white supremacists) when apartheid still existed, which fortunately is past. This no longer exists, but now there are new problems there. Rhino and Zuku now also encounter an ambitious and ruthless ex-wife Rowena, dedicated to mounting unlimited poaching expeditions for people who enjoy killing animals. However, she is at something even worse: with her boyfriend they are also using animals for cruel and un unauthorized sadistic experiments. When Rhino and Zulu, trying to recover things Rowena illegally held in divorce, discover this dark secret, the cruel woman decides to end the problem with her own hands. Of course, the children of both friends with the help of the animals themselves will put things in place and subject the pair of villains to the most terrible indignities, until total defeat.
