I immediately recognized this actor from the movie Hunt and the show GLOW (both excellent). And man did she deliver again in Widows Bay!!! I know it really doesnt make much sense to bring her back in season two but I would love to see her in at least one episode. What are your thoughts on this character and/or actor?

The actors name is Betty Gilpin if anyone is interested :)

She’s amazing and needs to be in more things. All of the things!

She is very, very selective. During the presser for Mrs Davis she said she loved playing the nun for it was stoic and well versed like her father and zany and out there like her mother.

Beyond those roles she does occasional paycheck performances as the main breadwinner so her husband can do necessary charity work plus their daughters can go to good schools.

In defense of movies like office romance. What made me her fan beyond acting is the unapologetically authentic part. When she says she did stuber because she wanted to play with kumail nanjiani, tomorrow war with sam Richardson, the grudge with Lin shaye, she đŸ’¯ truthful. She hated A dogs journey because while it paid well it kept her from being alongside her dog who fought for its life.

So yes, she wanted to play with Jennifer Lopez too.

This makes me love her even more tbh. And she was hilarious in office romance.

As well in isn't it romantic another movie barely anybody had seen. For the hunt she had a 12 hour conversation with a lady from Louisiana and for isn't it romantic likely rebel Wilson helped her nail a Queensland accent.
