Ayo Edebiri (The Bear), Elle Fanning (The Great), Devery Jacobs (Reservation Dogs), Natasha Lyonne (Poker Face), Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), and Sheryl Lee Ralph (Abbott Elementary)
This was definitely one of my favourite roundtables. I loooove seeing this supportive community of women rooting for each other. Tbh I literally will stop whatever I'm doing to watch these when they come out loool THR roundtables and Variety's Actors on Actors really are some of the best interviews imo.
reservation dogs is such a lovely lovely show (although it makes me cry more than laugh) and devery is wonderful in it. i'm always here for the show getting more love because it's better than a majority of shows out there rn.
the moment between devery correcting sheryl on the usage of calling indigenous people as indian was super respectful and nice. glad devery felt comfortable correcting her and sheryl super accepting of the correction.
it was funny tho devery telling sheryl she wants a book of her inspirational quotes. sheryl talks in such uplifting ways but it doesn’t feel fake from her, it’s like yeah that’s how she got by and kept herself grounded in the industry.
ughhhh at the part where elle tells the story of learning someone thought she wasn’t fuckable enough at 16 to be cast… in a father daughter comedy road trip movie. ewwwwww. and then natasha describing one of her auditions as a teen being asked to eat a banana slowly. disgusting.
sheryl said it like 4 times in one breath and no one made a sound. i was like okay they're all like eeeeeek! but then devery handled it so wonderfully and so did sheryl. it was cool. and now people who watch this will know maybe something they had no idea about.
i skimmed through this so need to watch it in full later but Sheryl’s positivity is cool, it’s always nice to see someone sound passionate and thoughtful about what they do.
Lmaooo the part where Natasha told Ayo life doesn’t have to be this way re: her Pete Davidson comment 💀💀💀
Jenna was mostly quiet but I enjoyed her input. Elle seems lovely too.
