<p>Netflix&#8217;s <em>Resident Evil</em> series is set to make a major change within the franchise when it premieres this summer. The series will be the first live-action project to hit the silver screen and it has a pretty well-rounded cast. Netflix cast <em>Charlie&#8217;s Angels</em> star Ella Balinska in the lead role of <em>Resident Evil</em> and Lance Reddick as a race-swapped Albert Wesker. In the video games, Wesker is a white blonde male who dies in a volcano, so the casting definitely turned some heads, but Reddick was deemed the best man for the job. We recently got the chance to sit down with the showrunner of Netflix&#8217;s <em>Resident Evil,</em> Andrew Dabb, and he revealed how Reddick landed the role and teased how the character is still alive in the series.</p>
<p>&#8220;So essentially, what happened. So number one is, you know, in the games, Wesker is dead. He got blown up by a rocket launcher in a volcano,&#8221; Dabb revealed. &#8220;The games are our backstory. So everything in the games exists in this world. So how is Wesker alive? Now, I will say stay tuned. And the answer is not like he&#8217;s immune to lava. You know what I mean?&#8221;</p>
<p>Reddick has a pretty prolific career starring in projects like <em>The Wire</em>, <em>Fringe</em> and the John Wick franchise, so he definitely is qualified to play the role. Dabb revealed that when the actor showed interest in the role, they immediately chose him because there was no one better for the role. The <em>Resident Evil </em>showrunner also reveals why Reddick was the right choice to play Albert Wesker.</p>
<p>&#8220;In terms of casting, the rule for casting was to find the best person, you know what I mean? I think when you are casting in the modern day and age, if you are limiting yourself based off, well, this character is blonde, so we got to only look at blonde actors, you&#8217;re gonna find yourself in a bad position,&#8221; the <em>Resident Evil</em> showrunner continued. &#8220;And so, when Lance [Reddick] was interested in doing the part, well, you&#8217;re not gonna find anybody better. Like, you&#8217;re not gonna find anybody better than him to play his character. Both the kind of dad part of the character, and also, as you saw in this, the more kind of corporate, you know, killer part of the character.</p>
<p>&#8220;So once that clicked into place, like, you&#8217;re not going to do better. So at that point, you&#8217;re making the show weaker by going with someone that may be more aesthetically a match to the game, you know what I mean? So why would you weaken a show like that? You know what I mean, it makes no sense to me. And luckily, Netflix and Constantin as well, we&#8217;re very much on board with that. Because the goal here is to do the strongest show, and that, by the way, that applies to all the others. You know, looking at Ella [Balinska] and Tara [Smart] and Sienna [Agudong]. And Paola [Nuñez]like, we, believe me, we saw a lot of people, you know what I mean? Pretty much everybody.

<p>Netflix&#8217;s <em>Resident Evil</em> series is set to make a major change within the franchise when it premieres this summer. The series will be the first live-action project to hit the silver screen and it has a pretty well-rounded cast. Netflix cast <em>Charlie&#8217;s Angels</em> star Ella Balinska in the lead role of <em>Resident Evil</em> and Lance Reddick as a race-swapped Albert Wesker. In the video games, Wesker is a white blonde male who dies in a volcano, so the casting definitely turned some heads, but Reddick was deemed the best man for the job. We recently got the chance to sit down with the showrunner of Netflix&#8217;s <em>Resident Evil,</em> Andrew Dabb, and he revealed how Reddick landed the role and teased how the character is still alive in the series.</p>
<p>&#8220;So essentially, what happened. So number one is, you know, in the games, Wesker is dead. He got blown up by a rocket launcher in a volcano,&#8221; Dabb revealed. &#8220;The games are our backstory. So everything in the games exists in this world. So how is Wesker alive? Now, I will say stay tuned. And the answer is not like he&#8217;s immune to lava. You know what I mean?&#8221;</p>
<p>Reddick has a pretty prolific career starring in projects like <em>The Wire</em>, <em>Fringe</em> and the John Wick franchise, so he definitely is qualified to play the role. Dabb revealed that when the actor showed interest in the role, they immediately chose him because there was no one better for the role. The <em>Resident Evil </em>showrunner also reveals why Reddick was the right choice to play Albert Wesker.</p>
<p>&#8220;In terms of casting, the rule for casting was to find the best person, you know what I mean? I think when you are casting in the modern day and age, if you are limiting yourself based off, well, this character is blonde, so we got to only look at blonde actors, you&#8217;re gonna find yourself in a bad position,&#8221; the <em>Resident Evil</em> showrunner continued. &#8220;And so, when Lance [Reddick] was interested in doing the part, well, you&#8217;re not gonna find anybody better. Like, you&#8217;re not gonna find anybody better than him to play his character. Both the kind of dad part of the character, and also, as you saw in this, the more kind of corporate, you know, killer part of the character.</p>
<p>&#8220;So once that clicked into place, like, you&#8217;re not going to do better. So at that point, you&#8217;re making the show weaker by going with someone that may be more aesthetically a match to the game, you know what I mean? So why would you weaken a show like that? You know what I mean, it makes no sense to me. And luckily, Netflix and Constantin as well, we&#8217;re very much on board with that. Because the goal here is to do the strongest show, and that, by the way, that applies to all the others. You know, looking at Ella [Balinska] and Tara [Smart] and Sienna [Agudong]. And Paola [Nuñez]like, we, believe me, we saw a lot of people, you know what I mean? Pretty much everybody. And these people were the standout people, these every, and I say this, like, honestly, everybody on this show was our first choice. And we were very lucky that Netflix helped us put them in the show.&#8221; Dabb added.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;On set of Senior Year last year watching this boss do her thing and honestly nothing has made me want to be in a movie like this more,&#8217; she gushed.</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;Such a fun set!&#8217; she added. &#8216;I mean, what a vibe.&#8217;</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">Brittany then publicly congratulated Rebel on the success of the film, posting a selfie of the pair together before tagging Rebel and Netflix.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">Last month, Brittany revealed that being mates with the Pitch Perfect star had inspired her to chase her own acting dreams.</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;Rebel is so great. I spent a lot of time with her last year and on sets with her in Atlanta, and she really re-inspired me to keep chasing the dream and [reminded me] that nothing comes easily,&#8217; she told Stellar Magazine. </p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">The Life Uncut host has even signed up for acting classes at the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney &#8211; whose alumni include Cate Blanchett, Sarah Snook and Mel Gibson. </p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;I&#8217;ve been doing some study at NIDA. Even Rebel got rejected from NIDA, like, four times and just hearing her say, &#8216;&#8221;They were basically saying I&#8217;m not good enough, but I kept going&#8221;, seeing all her success and how incredible she is,&#8217; she continued.</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;It&#8217;s really inspiring that there&#8217;s no age limit, there&#8217;s no number of times you can get knocked down before you can get back up&#8217;.</p>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">Brittany rose to fame on Nick &#8216;The Honey Badger&#8217; Cummins&#8217; season of The Bachelor in 2018.</p>

But how could she have missed the biggest women’s boxing match in history? “On one hand, it’s gonna go down in the history books as one of the best fights ever, and that’s saying a lot. And on the other hand, I was really upset that Amanda didn’t get the win.”</span></p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez is no casual fan. Moviegoers know her as a distinctive, expressive actor, veteran of everything from 1989’s Do the Right Thing to the current HBO hit The Flight Attendant. But, in other circles, Perez is better known as “the first lady of boxing”. Around New York, she is often to be found ringside, not just at the big title fights but the lower-tier prospect matches. All the promoters know her, and many of the boxers, too – including Serrano, a fellow Puerto Rican from the same neighbourhood of Bushwick in Brooklyn.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">While Perez boxes and trains regularly, she doesn’t fight. “I learned how to box because I used to get beat up a lot. And I was scrappy. I would always fight back all the time, even though I would lose,” she says. “I was that idiot that, like, after I’ve been pummelled to the ground, I would get back up and be like, ‘Is that all you got?’”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">The first time most people saw Perez, she was boxing and dancing through the opening credits of Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing. It set the tone for the movie, and possibly for Perez’s own career. She has fought against incredible odds to get where she is, and she has punched her way through a few Hollywood barriers, too.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">It was dancing that got her started. Lee spotted her at a Los Angeles nightclub, where he was holding an unsavoury-sounding “butt contest” to see which Black woman had the biggest butt. Perez disrupted the proceedings by dancing on a speaker. Lee gave her his card and said, “Tonight is fate,” to which she responded, “You wish!” She thought he was hitting on her, but he was sizing her up for the role of Tina, the girlfriend of Lee’s character in Do the Right Thing. The part was originally written for a Black actor but Perez (who has been identified by others as “Afro-Latino” but rejects such distinctions and only describes herself as “Latina”) made it her own with her brassy, no bullshit attitude. She has spoken of her unhappiness with Lee over the movie’s nude scenes (for which she has since forgiven him), but he was right about the “fate” part.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Yet, Perez still had a fight on her hands to establish herself in a film industry that had little interest in Latina actors. “I understood, right off the bat, the racism and stuff like that,” she says. “And so I just made sure I had representation.” Jennifer Grey, who co-starred with her on her next movie, Criminal Justice, introduced her to her agency, CAA. “I remember first meeting with them and I said, ‘Get me in the room where you get all the white girls in,’ and their mouths just dropped,” she laughs. “I said, ‘If I don’t get the role then that’s on me. But if you don’t get me in the room, then that’s on you.’”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">They got her in the room, and she got the roles, many of which were written with white actors in mind. Like Gloria, Woody Harrelson’s trivia-loving girlfriend in 1992’s basketball-hustle classic White Men Can’t Jump. She, Harrelson and Wesley Snipes reunited at this year’s Academy Awards, where they shambolically presented the best cinematographer Oscar. Harrelson and Snipes admitted they had just done a bong hit in the car. “I wasn’t pissed off at them; I was more like, geez guys, really? You couldn’t wait till <em>after</em>?” Was it like that on set back in the day? “No comment.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">The role that finally showed Perez’s range was also originally written as a white character, Carla in Peter Weir’s 1993 film drama Fearless. The movie was not a hit but Perez’s raw, emotional performance, as a plane-crash survivor who loses her baby, earned her an Oscar nomination. She later revealed she had been drawing on a lifetime’s experience of depression, loss, betrayal and undiagnosed PTSD.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">If you were to make a film based on Perez’s childhood, it would seem excessively dramatic. She was initially brought up by her aunt, who she believed was her mother. Her birth mother and father were married to other people, and virtually abandoned Perez as a baby. Her mother returned when she was three, only to place her in a strict Catholic convent school in upstate New York, along with several of her half-siblings. After that, Perez moved between group foster homes, seeing her parents intermittently. Her mother (who had paranoid schizophrenia) and some of the nuns physically abused her, and she was sexually abused by her half-brother. In 1999, her mother died of an Aids-related illness.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">At least the nuns taught her dancing, she says, although they might not have approved of how she applied those skills. She began studying biochemistry, but was often to be found in nightclubs “in a tight-ass hoochie-mama minidress and a gang of makeup” as she put it in her 2014 memoir, Handbook for an Unpredictable Life. A producer for the TV show Soul Train spotted her and hired her as a regular dancer. Then, one day a music executive asked her to choreograph his new solo artist. “I said, ‘I’m not a choreographer,’” Perez recalls. “He said: ‘I’ll pay you $1,600 a day,’ and I said, ‘I’ll be there Monday’. And that’s how it began. I made it up on the fly.” The new solo artist was Bobby Brown.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Suddenly, Perez had a career as a choreographer, touring with early hip-hop acts including LL Cool J and Heavy D &#038; the Boyz, and later becoming the in-house choreographer on the seminal 90s show In Living Color, drilling the show’s famous Fly Girls (including Jennifer Lopez).</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“It was exciting, it was hard, it was depressing,” Perez remembers.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Why depressing?</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“Because being a female in the music business then was very difficult. The misogyny was very, very high. All these men were just – excuse my French – fucking everything that walked. And they were patted on the back. God forbid if <em>you</em> were caught kissing a guy; your career was <em>done</em>. But then every guy was hitting on you. It was non-stop. Even if you got a job, if you didn’t flirt with the manager, the producer, the record company person, or didn’t sleep with them, it would be very difficult for you to secure employment.” Perez refused to play that game, she says, “but people still thought: ‘You probably slept with them.’ Or they would label you a bitch.” She singles out a few good guys – LL Cool J, Heavy D, De La Soul, Tupac Shakur – “but there wasn’t a lot of them.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">She also had her share of unwanted advances and uncomfortable casting meetings in hotel rooms. “I let the feeling be present in the room, like, ‘Don’t fucking try it on me. It’s not gonna happen.’”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez chronicled her early life in honest detail in her memoir. A stunt had gone wrong during filming of a Law &#038; Order: Special Victims Unit episode, which put her out of action for more than a year. People had long been urging her to write her life story, she says, “but I was still not ready. I was still hiding – and when I broke my neck, I was presented with the truth, every single freaking day, sitting in bed and not being able to move, and having a nurse having to take me to the bathroom, and being so exposed. I just opened up my laptop and I started writing.”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez is now more in demand than ever, fuelled perhaps in part by her ever-growing status as a Latina trailblazer. Where once she had to fight to get into the room, people are now fighting to get her into the room.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Her new Apple+ show, Now and Then, for example, is a twisty mystery thriller focused on a group of Hispanic-Americans in Miami, who share a dark secret from their student days. The story switches between Spanish and English, and timelines 20 years apart; the cast is a Who’s Who of Spanish and Hispanic stars. The show only came about, says Perez, because Apple hired a female Cuban executive. “That’s why representation matters.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">It was a similar story with The Flight Attendant, now in its second season. When Perez was offered the part of Megan, the co-worker and best friend of Kaley Cuoco’s hot-mess heroine, she turned it down, she says. “I really liked it a lot but I hate flying, and travelling. I hate it all.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">What changed her mind? “Kaley,” she says. “She’s so freakin’ charming I can’t stand it, and I fell for her charms immediately.” But Perez made it a condition that the writers take into account her character’s situation as a middle-aged, menopausal woman. “I wanted her to have the feeling like when you get older and you walk down the streets, and the guys don’t look at your tits any more,” she says. “And you just feel invisible.”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Personally, she feels the opposite. “When I started noticing that I wasn’t getting the same attention as when I was younger, it made me laugh, it didn’t depress me.” Now 57, she is self-deprecatingly frank about getting older. When she learned she was going to be playing both her older and younger selves in Now and Then, she says, “I said, ‘Darling, do you see these jowls around my face?’ I have no fillers going on. Maybe a little Botox. I know, actresses don’t want to admit it but they all do it, you know?” She is giggling like a child now. “Oh my God, my publicist probably won’t want me to say this, but I’m gonna say it. I said, ‘What are you going to do about my neck?’ And they go, ‘We got the secret.’” The makeup department had a special neck-rejuvenating “device”, she says. “A lot of the Spanish actresses do it.” </p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez enjoys her success but she has never really enjoyed celebrity: “It was difficult for me being in the entertainment industry because I was so seen, I <em>am</em> so seen.” </p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">She still suffers from anxiety and depression, although therapy has helped: “Now it’s manageable. I’m able to get out of my way and enjoy the work. It better be after $400 an hour!” She is happy being at home. “I still kind of live a simple life. Just my friends, my family, my husband, my cats. I have a beautiful house and I have a humungous back yard, which is unheard of in New York. I am fine not leaving my house for maybe like a week.” If the promised Taylor-Serrano rematch happens in Dublin, though, she’ll be there.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“That’s another reason why I like boxing so much,” she adds, “because it takes so much tenacity and discipline to become a champion. You have to train every single day of your life. Even when you’re not training, you’re training. You have to watch what you eat, you have to watch your sleep, you have to watch everything. And that’s who I was as a child. I always felt like I was doing time. And I wanted to make the time work for me.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Against impossible odds, Perez has won the title fight of her own life, and much of it seems to come down to determination and self-discipline. “You know, people think that just because you’re born into a certain circumstance, that you are that, and I was <em>never</em> that, even as a child,” she says. “I was always thinking, ‘I don’t belong here.’ That’s part of it. The other part is, ‘There but for the grace of God go I’. I just really got lucky.”</p>

But how could she have missed the biggest women’s boxing match in history? “On one hand, it’s gonna go down in the history books as one of the best fights ever, and that’s saying a lot. And on the other hand, I was really upset that Amanda didn’t get the win.”</span></p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez is no casual fan. Moviegoers know her as a distinctive, expressive actor, veteran of everything from 1989’s Do the Right Thing to the current HBO hit The Flight Attendant. But, in other circles, Perez is better known as “the first lady of boxing”. Around New York, she is often to be found ringside, not just at the big title fights but the lower-tier prospect matches. All the promoters know her, and many of the boxers, too – including Serrano, a fellow Puerto Rican from the same neighbourhood of Bushwick in Brooklyn.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">While Perez boxes and trains regularly, she doesn’t fight. “I learned how to box because I used to get beat up a lot. And I was scrappy. I would always fight back all the time, even though I would lose,” she says. “I was that idiot that, like, after I’ve been pummelled to the ground, I would get back up and be like, ‘Is that all you got?’”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">The first time most people saw Perez, she was boxing and dancing through the opening credits of Spike Lee’s Do the Right Thing. It set the tone for the movie, and possibly for Perez’s own career. She has fought against incredible odds to get where she is, and she has punched her way through a few Hollywood barriers, too.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">It was dancing that got her started. Lee spotted her at a Los Angeles nightclub, where he was holding an unsavoury-sounding “butt contest” to see which Black woman had the biggest butt. Perez disrupted the proceedings by dancing on a speaker. Lee gave her his card and said, “Tonight is fate,” to which she responded, “You wish!” She thought he was hitting on her, but he was sizing her up for the role of Tina, the girlfriend of Lee’s character in Do the Right Thing. The part was originally written for a Black actor but Perez (who has been identified by others as “Afro-Latino” but rejects such distinctions and only describes herself as “Latina”) made it her own with her brassy, no bullshit attitude. She has spoken of her unhappiness with Lee over the movie’s nude scenes (for which she has since forgiven him), but he was right about the “fate” part.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Yet, Perez still had a fight on her hands to establish herself in a film industry that had little interest in Latina actors. “I understood, right off the bat, the racism and stuff like that,” she says. “And so I just made sure I had representation.” Jennifer Grey, who co-starred with her on her next movie, Criminal Justice, introduced her to her agency, CAA. “I remember first meeting with them and I said, ‘Get me in the room where you get all the white girls in,’ and their mouths just dropped,” she laughs. “I said, ‘If I don’t get the role then that’s on me. But if you don’t get me in the room, then that’s on you.’”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">They got her in the room, and she got the roles, many of which were written with white actors in mind. Like Gloria, Woody Harrelson’s trivia-loving girlfriend in 1992’s basketball-hustle classic White Men Can’t Jump. She, Harrelson and Wesley Snipes reunited at this year’s Academy Awards, where they shambolically presented the best cinematographer Oscar. Harrelson and Snipes admitted they had just done a bong hit in the car. “I wasn’t pissed off at them; I was more like, geez guys, really? You couldn’t wait till <em>after</em>?” Was it like that on set back in the day? “No comment.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">The role that finally showed Perez’s range was also originally written as a white character, Carla in Peter Weir’s 1993 film drama Fearless. The movie was not a hit but Perez’s raw, emotional performance, as a plane-crash survivor who loses her baby, earned her an Oscar nomination. She later revealed she had been drawing on a lifetime’s experience of depression, loss, betrayal and undiagnosed PTSD.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">If you were to make a film based on Perez’s childhood, it would seem excessively dramatic. She was initially brought up by her aunt, who she believed was her mother. Her birth mother and father were married to other people, and virtually abandoned Perez as a baby. Her mother returned when she was three, only to place her in a strict Catholic convent school in upstate New York, along with several of her half-siblings. After that, Perez moved between group foster homes, seeing her parents intermittently. Her mother (who had paranoid schizophrenia) and some of the nuns physically abused her, and she was sexually abused by her half-brother. In 1999, her mother died of an Aids-related illness.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">At least the nuns taught her dancing, she says, although they might not have approved of how she applied those skills. She began studying biochemistry, but was often to be found in nightclubs “in a tight-ass hoochie-mama minidress and a gang of makeup” as she put it in her 2014 memoir, Handbook for an Unpredictable Life. A producer for the TV show Soul Train spotted her and hired her as a regular dancer. Then, one day a music executive asked her to choreograph his new solo artist. “I said, ‘I’m not a choreographer,’” Perez recalls. “He said: ‘I’ll pay you $1,600 a day,’ and I said, ‘I’ll be there Monday’. And that’s how it began. I made it up on the fly.” The new solo artist was Bobby Brown.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Suddenly, Perez had a career as a choreographer, touring with early hip-hop acts including LL Cool J and Heavy D &#038; the Boyz, and later becoming the in-house choreographer on the seminal 90s show In Living Color, drilling the show’s famous Fly Girls (including Jennifer Lopez).</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“It was exciting, it was hard, it was depressing,” Perez remembers.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Why depressing?</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“Because being a female in the music business then was very difficult. The misogyny was very, very high. All these men were just – excuse my French – fucking everything that walked. And they were patted on the back. God forbid if <em>you</em> were caught kissing a guy; your career was <em>done</em>. But then every guy was hitting on you. It was non-stop. Even if you got a job, if you didn’t flirt with the manager, the producer, the record company person, or didn’t sleep with them, it would be very difficult for you to secure employment.” Perez refused to play that game, she says, “but people still thought: ‘You probably slept with them.’ Or they would label you a bitch.” She singles out a few good guys – LL Cool J, Heavy D, De La Soul, Tupac Shakur – “but there wasn’t a lot of them.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">She also had her share of unwanted advances and uncomfortable casting meetings in hotel rooms. “I let the feeling be present in the room, like, ‘Don’t fucking try it on me. It’s not gonna happen.’”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez chronicled her early life in honest detail in her memoir. A stunt had gone wrong during filming of a Law &#038; Order: Special Victims Unit episode, which put her out of action for more than a year. People had long been urging her to write her life story, she says, “but I was still not ready. I was still hiding – and when I broke my neck, I was presented with the truth, every single freaking day, sitting in bed and not being able to move, and having a nurse having to take me to the bathroom, and being so exposed. I just opened up my laptop and I started writing.”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez is now more in demand than ever, fuelled perhaps in part by her ever-growing status as a Latina trailblazer. Where once she had to fight to get into the room, people are now fighting to get her into the room.</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Her new Apple+ show, Now and Then, for example, is a twisty mystery thriller focused on a group of Hispanic-Americans in Miami, who share a dark secret from their student days. The story switches between Spanish and English, and timelines 20 years apart; the cast is a Who’s Who of Spanish and Hispanic stars. The show only came about, says Perez, because Apple hired a female Cuban executive. “That’s why representation matters.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">It was a similar story with The Flight Attendant, now in its second season. When Perez was offered the part of Megan, the co-worker and best friend of Kaley Cuoco’s hot-mess heroine, she turned it down, she says. “I really liked it a lot but I hate flying, and travelling. I hate it all.”</p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">What changed her mind? “Kaley,” she says. “She’s so freakin’ charming I can’t stand it, and I fell for her charms immediately.” But Perez made it a condition that the writers take into account her character’s situation as a middle-aged, menopausal woman. “I wanted her to have the feeling like when you get older and you walk down the streets, and the guys don’t look at your tits any more,” she says. “And you just feel invisible.”</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Personally, she feels the opposite. “When I started noticing that I wasn’t getting the same attention as when I was younger, it made me laugh, it didn’t depress me.” Now 57, she is self-deprecatingly frank about getting older. When she learned she was going to be playing both her older and younger selves in Now and Then, she says, “I said, ‘Darling, do you see these jowls around my face?’ I have no fillers going on. Maybe a little Botox. I know, actresses don’t want to admit it but they all do it, you know?” She is giggling like a child now. “Oh my God, my publicist probably won’t want me to say this, but I’m gonna say it. I said, ‘What are you going to do about my neck?’ And they go, ‘We got the secret.’” The makeup department had a special neck-rejuvenating “device”, she says. “A lot of the Spanish actresses do it.” </p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">Perez enjoys her success but she has never really enjoyed celebrity: “It was difficult for me being in the entertainment industry because I was so seen, I <em>am</em> so seen.” </p>
<p class="dcr-139bh9t">She still suffers from anxiety and depression, although therapy has helped: “Now it’s manageable. I’m able to get out of my way and enjoy the work. It better be after $400 an hour!” She is happy being at home. “I still kind of live a simple life. Just my friends, my family, my husband, my cats. I have a beautiful house and I have a humungous back yard, which is unheard of in New York. I am fine not leaving my house for maybe like a week.” If the promised Taylor-Serrano rematch happens in Dublin, though, she’ll be there.</p>

<p class="dcr-139bh9t">“That’s another reason why I like boxing so much,” she adds, “because it takes so much tenacity and discipline to become a champion. You have to train every single day of your life. Even when you’re not training, you’re training. You have to watch what you eat, you have to watch your sleep, you have to watch everything. And that’s who I was as a child. I always felt like I was doing time. And I wanted to make the time work for me.”</p>

The other part is, ‘There but for the grace of God go I’. I just really got lucky.”</p>

</p></div>
<div id="article-body">
<p>Karl Urban debunks the Pedro Pascal <em><strong>The Mandalorian</strong> </em>replacement rumors. The popular <em>Star Wars </em>TV show features the latter actor as Din Djarin, a Mandalorian bounty hunter who finds himself charged with the safety of a young alien later named as Grogu. Seasons 1 &#038; 2 released in 2019 and 2020, respectively, while <em>The Mandalorian </em>season 3 is expected to premiere in late 2022 or early 2023.</p>
<p>Despite being a recognizable star, rising to prominence for his role in <em>Game of Thrones</em>, Pascal doesn&#8217;t often show his face in the Disney+ series. As an adherent of the old Mandalorian religion, the bounty hunter is not permitted to remove his helmet in front of another, which has led to plenty of speculation as to how much of Mando&#8217;s screen time is actually performed by a stunt double. That line of thinking has lately been pushed further, with a <em>The Mandalorian </em>replacement rumor suggesting that Lucasfilm had fired Pascal and cast <em>The Boys </em>star Urban in his place for season 3.</p>

<p>Now, in an interview on the UK&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.radiox.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Radio X</a>Urban addresses the rumor with a heavy dose of incredulity. Admitting this was the first he&#8217;s heard of the Pedro Pascal <em>The Mandalorian </em>replacement theory, the actor laughs it off before criticizing its lack of originality.

<p>As Urban implies, the rumor isn&#8217;t all that well thought through &#8211; should <em>The Mandalorian </em>actually fire Pascal, it would be significantly cheaper to have stunt doubles in the suit full-time and just hire a voice actor. It wouldn&#8217;t even take much explaining to have Din Djarin never remove his helmet again, since his <em>Boba Fett </em>appearance suggests he will seek redemption for doing so previously to be welcomed back into his faith. Considering that series caused Kevin Smith to say Boba Fett removing his helmet made him less cool, a pivot in that direction might even be welcomed by viewers.</p>
<p><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --></p>
<p>Thankfully, though, there&#8217;s no legitimate reason to believe <em><strong>The Mandalorian</strong> </em>season 3 cast won&#8217;t include Pascal in the lead role. Filming already wrapped in March of this year, meaning that fans won&#8217;t have much longer to wait until they see Mando and Grogu on their next adventures. Until then, <em>Star Wars </em>audiences have <em>Obi-Wan Kenobi </em>to tide them over, with the highly anticipated miniseries set to premiere next Friday, May 27.</p>

<p>As Urban implies, the rumor isn&#8217;t all that well thought through &#8211; should <em>The Mandalorian </em>actually fire Pascal, it would be significantly cheaper to have stunt doubles in the suit full-time and just hire a voice actor. It wouldn&#8217;t even take much explaining to have Din Djarin never remove his helmet again, since his <em>Boba Fett </em>appearance suggests he will seek redemption for doing so previously to be welcomed back into his faith. Considering that series caused Kevin Smith to say Boba Fett removing his helmet made him less cool, a pivot in that direction might even be welcomed by viewers.</p>
<p><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --></p>
<p>Thankfully, though, there&#8217;s no legitimate reason to believe <em><strong>The Mandalorian</strong> </em>season 3 cast won&#8217;t include Pascal in the lead role. Filming already wrapped in March of this year, meaning that fans won&#8217;t have much longer to wait until they see Mando and Grogu on their next adventures. Until then, <em>Star Wars </em>audiences have <em>Obi-Wan Kenobi </em>to tide them over, with the highly anticipated miniseries set to premiere next Friday, May 27.</p>

<p class="">Kyle Richards has plenty of fond memories of working with Jamie Lee Curtis — reaching back to when she starred alongside Curtis as a little girl in 1978’s slasher classic, “Halloween.”</p>

<p class="">“Gosh, I have so many (memories) now,” Richards, who was 9 years old when &#8220;Halloween&#8221; came out, told TODAY at Monday’s NBCUniversal upfront red carpet. “You know, it used to be that the last day we wrapped on the original ‘Halloween’ in 1978 that she carried me back to my dressing room all the way, but now I have so many more. You know, this time we were filming in Georgia, and it’s just like those moments, like, ‘Come down, I’ll make you a coffee for breakfast,’ and just talking and sharing.”</p>
<p class="">“She’s an incredible person and someone that I admire not only as an artist but just as a human being,” added the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star.</p>
<p class="">More than four decades after they worked together in “Halloween,” Richards, 53, and Curtis, 63, reunited for 2021’s “Halloween Kills,” and they are set to star in the upcoming sequel, “Halloween Ends.”</p>

<div class="detail ">
<p>You can take the desi girl out of India but not India out of the desi girl, it seems. Priyanka Chopra currently spends the majority of her time in the US but she maintains ties to her Indian roots. The actor makes it a point to mark any happy occasion in the US with a traditional Hindu puja and rituals. In a recent interview, Priyanka’s mother Madhu Chopra clarified that she does it to quell the ignorance Westerners have about the country. <strong>Also read: </strong><strong>Parineeti Chopra says Priyanka Chopra was ‘a soldier in hospital&#8217; after Malti’s premature birth; Anushka, Ranveer react</strong></p>
<p>Priyanka and husband Nick Chopra recently organized a puja at their Los Angeles home after their daughter Malti came home having spent more than a hundred days in the hospital. The couple welcomed Malti through surrogacy in January but she had to stay in the hospital as she was born premature. This was in line with how the family has celebrated most major milestones and festivals. She recently organised a party for Holi
</p>
<p>In an interaction with Hauterfly magazine, Madhu spoke about why Priyanka keeps the Indian culture and rituals alive in her US home. “She wants to educate them that you have a lot of misinformation about India. They think we have maharajas, elephants and snake charmers only. We have the best education, best IT, and the medical technology. Who will teach this? Our culture, our rituals, everything has so much good behind them. She believes in them and tries to keep it up there,” she said.</p>
<p>Madhu also opened up about her son-in-law singer Nick Jonas. At 29, Nick is a decade younger than Priyanka. While many have pointed out this age gap between the two, Madhu says it does not bother her. Calling him ‘sweet’, she added, “Whoever keeps Priyanka happy is my guy.”</p>
<p>Priyanka recently returned to work after welcoming her daughter Malti back home. The actor is shooting for Amazon Prime Video’s web series Citadel, which also stars Richard Madden.</p>

<p>You can take the desi girl out of India but not India out of the desi girl, it seems. Priyanka Chopra currently spends the majority of her time in the US but she maintains ties to her Indian roots. The actor makes it a point to mark any happy occasion in the US with a traditional Hindu puja and rituals. In a recent interview, Priyanka’s mother Madhu Chopra clarified that she does it to quell the ignorance Westerners have about the country. <strong>Also read: </strong><strong>Parineeti Chopra says Priyanka Chopra was ‘a soldier in hospital&#8217; after Malti’s premature birth; Anushka, Ranveer react</strong></p>
<p>Priyanka and husband Nick Chopra recently organized a puja at their Los Angeles home after their daughter Malti came home having spent more than a hundred days in the hospital. The couple welcomed Malti through surrogacy in January but she had to stay in the hospital as she was born premature. This was in line with how the family has celebrated most major milestones and festivals. She recently organised a party for Holi
</p>
<p>In an interaction with Hauterfly magazine, Madhu spoke about why Priyanka keeps the Indian culture and rituals alive in her US home. “She wants to educate them that you have a lot of misinformation about India. They think we have maharajas, elephants and snake charmers only. We have the best education, best IT, and the medical technology. Who will teach this? Our culture, our rituals, everything has so much good behind them. She believes in them and tries to keep it up there,” she said.</p>
<p>Madhu also opened up about her son-in-law singer Nick Jonas. At 29, Nick is a decade younger than Priyanka. While many have pointed out this age gap between the two, Madhu says it does not bother her. Calling him ‘sweet’, she added, “Whoever keeps Priyanka happy is my guy.”</p>
<p>Priyanka recently returned to work after welcoming her daughter Malti back home. The actor is shooting for Amazon Prime Video’s web series Citadel, which also stars Richard Madden.</p>

Ukrainian officials said its troops have “fulfilled&#8221; their combat mission in the southeastern port city. And evacuated over 250 Ukrainian troops from the Azovstal steel plant, where they had fended off Russian troops for 83 days. It’s Russia’s first major win since the start of its invasion and has major implications: the port city’s strategically placed between annexed Crimea and other Russian-backed territories. It&#8217;s also one of the largest trading hubs on the Sea of Azov, and cutting off ports could strangle Ukraine’s economy. Despite Russia&#8217;s efforts to conquer parts of Ukraine, it has made little progress.</p>

Yesterday, Congress held its first hearing on UFOs in more than 50 years. Last year, the intel community shared a report citing more than 140 cases of flying objects the gov can’t explain. Now, that number’s closer to 400. It includes everything from objects shaped like a Tic Tac to reports of triangles that officials are “reasonably” sure are drones. Comforting. Officials say they&#8217;d love to know what&#8217;s zooming through the sky but haven&#8217;t tried to communicate with them. And UFOs apparently haven&#8217;t tried to phone home.

Ukrainian officials said its troops have “fulfilled&#8221; their combat mission in the southeastern port city. And evacuated over 250 Ukrainian troops from the Azovstal steel plant, where they had fended off Russian troops for 83 days. It’s Russia’s first major win since the start of its invasion and has major implications: the port city’s strategically placed between annexed Crimea and other Russian-backed territories. It&#8217;s also one of the largest trading hubs on the Sea of Azov, and cutting off ports could strangle Ukraine’s economy. Despite Russia&#8217;s efforts to conquer parts of Ukraine, it has made little progress.</p>

<p><strong>In this article:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Kaitlyn Dever has acted in TV shows, commercials, and eventually, films, since she was 13, giving her a resume that could make a veteran jealous.</li>
<li>Across 37 acting credits in the last 12 years, she’s done a little bit of everything from comedy to drama, and has worked with — and learned from — some of the most talented people in Hollywood.</li>
<li>Trigger warnings are in order for brief mentions of rape, drug addiction, and self-harm in a few of the titles below (which will be labeled accordingly).</li>
</ul>
<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>
<p>At 25, Kaitlyn Dever has been a scene-stealer for more than half of her life.</p>
<p>After having starred in shows like FX’s <em>Justified </em>and making rounds in the likes of <em>Modern Family, Private Practice, </em>and <em>Curb Your Enthusiasm</em>, Dever worked on critically acclaimed films like <em>Short Term 12</em> (2013). </p>
<p>She hasn’t looked back since, taking on more and more leading roles in recent years — like the wonderful <em>Booksmart </em>(2019) and the Netflix limited series <em>Unbelievable. </em></p>
<p>Despite these wins, Kaitlyn Dever doesn’t truly believe she’s made it. With every project, she says, she feels like she’s starting over. “I start from scratch and each experience has its own mindset,” she tells <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nme.com/en_asia/features/tv-interviews/kaitlyn-dever-interview-dopesick-booksmart-3092953" rel="noopener">NME</a>. </p>
<p>“I never want to feel like I’ve stopped learning.”</p>
<p>And Dever’s got range to show for it.</p>
<p>Fresh off <em>Dear Evan Hansen</em> (a musical coming-of-age drama) and <em>Dopesick</em> (a harrowing miniseries on the opioid crisis), she’s set to star in two movies to be released this year. </p>
<p>One is <em>Rosaline, </em>the story of Romeo and Juliet told through the eyes of Juliet’s cousin who happens to be Romeo’s ex, and the other is <em>Ticket to Paradise</em>, a rom-com where she plays the daughter of none other than George Clooney and Julia Roberts.</p>
<p>Of course, there’s surely more to come in the future. But for a young actress, she’s already built for herself a pretty solid body of work. Below are some of her best ones, according to IMDb.</p>
<h2>Dopesick (2021)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9174558/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5" rel="noopener">8.7</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">

<iframe loading="lazy" title="Dopesick Official Trailer | Hulu" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EzrLrUG2QVk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>This eight-part series is based on Beth Macy’s book <em>Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America</em>.</p>
<p>It takes viewers to the Virginia mining community, the boardrooms of Purdue Pharma, and the offices of government agencies like the FDA and the DOJ — while studying the opioid drug OxyContin that tied them all.</p>
<p>Here,<em> </em>Kaitlyn Dever plays Betsy Mallum, a young closeted lesbian in rural Virginia. </p>
<p>She dreams of a bigger life for herself while working in precarious conditions in the coal mines and living with her religious parents. When she hurts her back in a mining accident, she finds herself falling victim to the drug her doctor prescribes her.</p>
<p><em>Dopesick </em>showcases Dever at her best yet.</p>
<p>For her, the performance means something bigger than herself. “I didn’t know much about the injustice of the epidemic or how it started,” she says, explaining that most young people know that the opioid crisis happened once — but not much else. </p>
<p>“It’s important that people know the truth.”</p>
<h2>Justified (2010-2015)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489428/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_23" rel="noopener">8.6</a></h3>
<p>From one of Kaitlyn Dever’s latest projects, we go to one of her first — and interestingly, it’s set in another coal mining town, this time in Kentucky.</p>
<p>In FX’s <em>Justified, </em>viewers follow the story of Raylan Givens, a US Marshall who gets reassigned from Miami to his hometown in Kentucky. We meet Dever’s character, Loretta McCready, in season 2 of the show, and she’s a troubled teen involved in the weed business.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEvOkigcxog" rel="noopener">She recalls</a> that she was originally only supposed to come in for a few episodes, but the showrunners kept bringing her back, and it’s not hard to see why.</p>
<p>Here’s a quick clip of her as Loretta, as well as an interview. Even as a young teen, she was already clearly a pro:</p>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">
<p>
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Loretta Mccready" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Rap0iklNWss?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>Her recurring role spanned 17 episodes across four seasons, and cemented her place in people’s minds as a young actor to watch.</p>
<h2>Unbelievable (2019)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7909970/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_12" rel="noopener">8.4</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">
<p>
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Unbelievable | Official Trailer | Netflix" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QTIkUzkbzQk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>“If the truth is inconvenient, they don’t believe it,” says Marie Adler, Kaitlyn Dever’s character, at the end of the trailer for Netflix’s <em>Unbelievable,</em> a limited series based on the award-winning report <em>An Unbelievable Story of Rape</em> by Ken Armstrong and T. Christian Miller.</p>
<p>And I know. Netflix originals <a target="_blank" href="https://gen.medium.com/https-gen-medium-com-netflix-mediocre-originals-streaming-competition3822911d5e21-3822911d5e21" rel="noopener">don’t exactly have the best record</a> when it comes to quality, though the streaming service is known to churn out a really great one now and then. There’s the Natasha Lyonne-led <em>Russian Doll</em><em>, </em>the delightfully raunchy<em> </em><em>Sex Education</em><em>, </em>and of course, there is <em>Unbelievable. </em></p>
<p>The powerful eight-part series tackles the very real problem of police inadequacy in dealing with rape and abuse, and can be very hard to watch at times.</p>
<p>But Dever does an amazing job in carrying Marie’s character with such grace that her getting snubbed by the Critics’ Choice, Golden Globe, and TCA Awards is, honestly, a crime.</p>
<h2>Short Term 12 (2013)</h2>
<h3>IMDb: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2370248/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_26" rel="noopener">7.9</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">
<p>
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Short Term 12 Official Trailer #1 (2013) - Brie Larson Movie HD" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qhS6tvSb0UQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>Speaking of crimes, <em>Short Term 12 </em>is probably the best movie you’ve never heard of, and it stars some pretty big names from before they were big. </p>
<p>There’s Brie Larson (who went on to do 2015’s <em>Room</em> and 2019’s <em>Captain Marvel</em>), Rami Malek (2018’s <em>Bohemian Rhapsody</em> and the USA Network’s <em>Mr. Robot</em>), LaKeith Stanfield (2021’s <em>Judas and the Black Messiah</em> and FX’s <em>Atlanta</em>), and Stephanie Beatriz (Fox / NBC’s <em>Brooklyn Nine-Nine</em> and 2021’s <em>Encanto</em>).</p>
<p>And of course, the film stars Kaitlyn Dever.</p>
<p>Led by Larson’s moving performance as Grace, <em>Short Term 12</em> is set at a group home for troubled teenagers, and tells the story of the kids themselves and the counselors who spend time with them. </p>
<p>Here, Dever plays Jayden Cole, a recent arrival with a history of self-harm, to whom Larson’s Grace Howard grows close.</p>
<p>The film is very well-written, well-paced, and definitely well-acted, and it’s one I can’t recommend enough.</p>
<h2>Last Man Standing (2011-2021)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1828327/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_8" rel="noopener">7.6</a></h3>

<p>ABC’s <em>Last Man Standing</em>, a sit-com about a sporting goods store executive and his family, may not be critically acclaimed outside of IMDb. </p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/last_man_standing/s01" rel="noopener">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, for example, described the first season as “thoroughly middling” and gave it a 14% rating — but it did last a good 10 years, spanning nine seasons and nearly 200 episodes. </p>
<p>The show stars Tim Allen as Mike Baxter, who lives with his wife and three daughters in Denver, Colorado. The show frames him as the odd man out of the household, and often contrasts his home life with his work life at Outdoor Man, where he sells sporting goods.</p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever, who played his youngest daughter Eve, was a regular all throughout seasons 1 through 6. She then became a rarer but still recurring character in later seasons to make room for other projects. </p>
<p>Allegedly her father’s favorite child, Eve is quick-witted, sarcastic, and athletic, often beating her own father in sports, though she sometimes breaks out of the tomboy mold.</p>
<p>In this scene, Dever gets to showcase a little of her vocal talent:</p>

<h2>Beautiful Boy (2018)</h2>

</figure>
<p>If you’re a softie for family-centric films like I am, then you might enjoy this 2018 film even though we don’t get to see so much of Kaitlyn Dever in it.</p>
<p>Felix van Groeningen’s <em>Beautiful Boy </em>tells the story of father and son David and Nicholas Sheff, and the latter’s struggle with addiction. Nicholas is played masterfully by Timothée Chalamet, while Dever plays a supporting role as Lauren, a fellow addict and love interest. </p>
<p>She makes good use of her limited screen time though, and gives us the gift of an emotionally intense scene with the lead character.</p>
<h2>Booksmart (2019)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489887/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_14" rel="noopener">7.1</a></h3>

</figure>
<p>In Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, Kaitlyn Dever plays Amy Anstler, sharing lead credits with Beanie Feldstein, who plays her best friend Molly Davidson. </p>
<p><em>Booksmart </em>lets Kaitlyn go back to her comedy roots, as it tells the story of two goody two-shoes who decide to party for the first and final time with their peers before they leave for college. </p>
<p>This time, though, she plays an awkward lesbian who’s crushing on her classmate. And she — like the film in general — never misses a beat.</p>
<p>Fast, fresh, and funny, the film even topped Rotten Tomatoes’ <a target="_blank" href="https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/guide/the-50-best-comedy-movies-of-the-2010s/" rel="noopener">list of the best comedy movies</a> of the 2010s. Moreover, both lead performances have been (rightfully) praised. Dever and Feldstein even ended up becoming real-life friends because of the film.</p>

<p>Lynn Shelton’s <em>Outside In </em>is all about Chris, played by Jay Duplass, who, at the start of the film, is released from prison after serving 20 years.</p>
<p>He has his high school teacher, Carol (Edie Falco), to thank for it. But as Chris struggles to get on his feet in a world that’s changed so much since he went behind bars, another problem is arising. </p>
<p>He’s in love with Carol, who now has a husband and a teenage daughter.</p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever plays the said teenage daughter, whose name is Hildy. She eventually befriends Chris, and the two bond. Though the drama is anchored on Duplass and Falco’s compelling performances, Dever holds her own, too, in this bittersweet film about love and circumstance.</p>
<h2>Men, Women &amp; Children (2014)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3179568/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_24" rel="noopener">6.6</a></h3>

</figure>
<p>I have to be honest. The 6.6 IMDb rating on this one is confusing given the film’s poor reviews. It currently has a 33% rating on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/men_women_and_children" rel="noopener">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, which might be a bit more accurate, but this <em>is</em> an article based on IMDb, not on Rotten Tomatoes, and so I must soldier on.</p>
<p>The film tells the story of several teenagers and their parents as they navigate the sometimes murky world of intimacy and the Internet. </p>
<p>In <em>Men, Women &amp; Children, </em>Donald and Helen Truby are cheating on each other through web-based services like Ashley Madison, while their son Chris has taken an unhealthy level of liking to online pornography. </p>
<p>He also sexts with his classmate Hannah, whose mom likes to post revealing, often provocative photographs of her online.</p>
<p>In contrast, Kaitlyn Dever’s character Brandy Beltmeyer is guarded by her overprotective mother Patricia, who monitors her texts and social media use.</p>
<p>The whole thing feels a bit like one of those moral panic movies you’re forced to watch at a Catholic high school, designed to try and scare you away from sex and the Internet.</p>
<p>And that’s a shame, because the topic of media use and intimacy <em>is</em> timely then and now, and director Jason Reitman (who gave us 2007’s <em>Juno</em>) has plenty of stars to work with. Dever is joined by the likes of Jennifer Garner, Judy Greer, Rosemarie DeWitt, Ansel Elgort, and Adam Sandler. Even Timothée Chalamet has a small role.</p>
<p>But all that star power can’t fix a poor script and an overbearing approach — though Dever and Elgort in particular do try their very best.</p>
<h2>Laggies / Say When (2014)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2034031/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_25" rel="noopener">6.4</a></h3>

<p>Also directed by <em>Outside In</em>’s Lynn Shelton, <em>Laggies</em> (or <em>Say When</em>, if you’re based in the UK) stars Keira Knightley as Megan, a 28-year-old slacker going through a quarter-life crisis. </p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever joins a pretty star-studded cast here, too, as her character Misty is best friends with Chloë Grace Moretz’s Annika, whose father Craig is played by Sam Rockwell.</p>
<p>But the cast is as far as the similarities go with <em>Men, Women &amp; Children. </em>This rom-com is decidedly light and doesn’t try to teach you too many morals. It’s enjoyable, too, and Shelton has a way of crafting scenes that make you empathize with her characters.</p>
<p>Dever has said several times in interviews how she loves learning from everybody she gets to work with, and maybe part of her remarkable skill today is thanks to movies like this one.</p>
<h2>Kaitlyn Dever Films &amp; TV Shows: Some Honorable Mentions</h2>
<p>Included in Kaitlyn Dever’s long resume is a handful of small parts in some pretty good movies and TV shows, which you might also want to check out:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Curb Your Enthusiasm </strong>(2000-present; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264235/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_29" rel="noopener">8.8</a> on IMDb): Dever makes an appearance for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bilaSB_tAE" rel="noopener">a single episode</a> on this well-loved comedy show starring and co-created by Larry David. In season 8, she shows up as a girl scout at David’s door.</li>
<li><strong>The Mentalist</strong> (2008-2015; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1196946/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_32" rel="noopener">8.2</a> on IMDb): If you’re into procedural shows, this CBS title might be a treat. Kaitlyn Dever is a guest actor on season 3, episode 14, where she plays Trina, the daughter of a key witness who suddenly wound up dead.</li>
<li><strong>Detroit</strong> (2017; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5390504/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_19" rel="noopener">7.3</a> on IMDb): Dever plays a small, but powerful, role in Katherine Bigelow’s period drama based on Detroit’s 1967 12th Street Riot, as part of an ensemble cast led by John Boyega and Will Poulter.</li>
<li><strong>The Spectacular Now </strong>(2013, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1714206/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_27" rel="noopener">7.1</a> on IMDb): Another 2013 collaboration with Brie Larson, this time starring Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley, this rom-com tells the story of two high school seniors falling in love in an incredibly empathetic and realistic way.

<p><strong>In this article:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Kaitlyn Dever has acted in TV shows, commercials, and eventually, films, since she was 13, giving her a resume that could make a veteran jealous.</li>
<li>Across 37 acting credits in the last 12 years, she’s done a little bit of everything from comedy to drama, and has worked with — and learned from — some of the most talented people in Hollywood.</li>
<li>Trigger warnings are in order for brief mentions of rape, drug addiction, and self-harm in a few of the titles below (which will be labeled accordingly).</li>
</ul>
<hr class="wp-block-separator"/>
<p>At 25, Kaitlyn Dever has been a scene-stealer for more than half of her life.</p>
<p>After having starred in shows like FX’s <em>Justified </em>and making rounds in the likes of <em>Modern Family, Private Practice, </em>and <em>Curb Your Enthusiasm</em>, Dever worked on critically acclaimed films like <em>Short Term 12</em> (2013). </p>
<p>She hasn’t looked back since, taking on more and more leading roles in recent years — like the wonderful <em>Booksmart </em>(2019) and the Netflix limited series <em>Unbelievable. </em></p>
<p>Despite these wins, Kaitlyn Dever doesn’t truly believe she’s made it. With every project, she says, she feels like she’s starting over. “I start from scratch and each experience has its own mindset,” she tells <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nme.com/en_asia/features/tv-interviews/kaitlyn-dever-interview-dopesick-booksmart-3092953" rel="noopener">NME</a>. </p>
<p>“I never want to feel like I’ve stopped learning.”</p>
<p>And Dever’s got range to show for it.</p>
<p>Fresh off <em>Dear Evan Hansen</em> (a musical coming-of-age drama) and <em>Dopesick</em> (a harrowing miniseries on the opioid crisis), she’s set to star in two movies to be released this year. </p>
<p>One is <em>Rosaline, </em>the story of Romeo and Juliet told through the eyes of Juliet’s cousin who happens to be Romeo’s ex, and the other is <em>Ticket to Paradise</em>, a rom-com where she plays the daughter of none other than George Clooney and Julia Roberts.</p>
<p>Of course, there’s surely more to come in the future. But for a young actress, she’s already built for herself a pretty solid body of work. Below are some of her best ones, according to IMDb.</p>
<h2>Dopesick (2021)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9174558/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5" rel="noopener">8.7</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">

</p>
</figure>
<p>This eight-part series is based on Beth Macy’s book <em>Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America</em>.</p>
<p>It takes viewers to the Virginia mining community, the boardrooms of Purdue Pharma, and the offices of government agencies like the FDA and the DOJ — while studying the opioid drug OxyContin that tied them all.</p>
<p>Here,<em> </em>Kaitlyn Dever plays Betsy Mallum, a young closeted lesbian in rural Virginia. </p>
<p>She dreams of a bigger life for herself while working in precarious conditions in the coal mines and living with her religious parents. When she hurts her back in a mining accident, she finds herself falling victim to the drug her doctor prescribes her.</p>
<p><em>Dopesick </em>showcases Dever at her best yet.</p>
<p>For her, the performance means something bigger than herself. “I didn’t know much about the injustice of the epidemic or how it started,” she says, explaining that most young people know that the opioid crisis happened once — but not much else. </p>
<p>“It’s important that people know the truth.”</p>
<h2>Justified (2010-2015)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489428/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_23" rel="noopener">8.6</a></h3>
<p>From one of Kaitlyn Dever’s latest projects, we go to one of her first — and interestingly, it’s set in another coal mining town, this time in Kentucky.</p>
<p>In FX’s <em>Justified, </em>viewers follow the story of Raylan Givens, a US Marshall who gets reassigned from Miami to his hometown in Kentucky. We meet Dever’s character, Loretta McCready, in season 2 of the show, and she’s a troubled teen involved in the weed business.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEvOkigcxog" rel="noopener">She recalls</a> that she was originally only supposed to come in for a few episodes, but the showrunners kept bringing her back, and it’s not hard to see why.</p>
<p>Here’s a quick clip of her as Loretta, as well as an interview. Even as a young teen, she was already clearly a pro:</p>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">

</p>
</figure>
<p>Her recurring role spanned 17 episodes across four seasons, and cemented her place in people’s minds as a young actor to watch.</p>
<h2>Unbelievable (2019)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7909970/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_12" rel="noopener">8.4</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">
<p>
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Unbelievable | Official Trailer | Netflix" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QTIkUzkbzQk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>“If the truth is inconvenient, they don’t believe it,” says Marie Adler, Kaitlyn Dever’s character, at the end of the trailer for Netflix’s <em>Unbelievable,</em> a limited series based on the award-winning report <em>An Unbelievable Story of Rape</em> by Ken Armstrong and T. Christian Miller.</p>
<p>And I know. Netflix originals <a target="_blank" href="https://gen.medium.com/https-gen-medium-com-netflix-mediocre-originals-streaming-competition3822911d5e21-3822911d5e21" rel="noopener">don’t exactly have the best record</a> when it comes to quality, though the streaming service is known to churn out a really great one now and then. There’s the Natasha Lyonne-led <em>Russian Doll</em><em>, </em>the delightfully raunchy<em> </em><em>Sex Education</em><em>, </em>and of course, there is <em>Unbelievable. </em></p>
<p>The powerful eight-part series tackles the very real problem of police inadequacy in dealing with rape and abuse, and can be very hard to watch at times.</p>
<p>But Dever does an amazing job in carrying Marie’s character with such grace that her getting snubbed by the Critics’ Choice, Golden Globe, and TCA Awards is, honestly, a crime.</p>
<h2>Short Term 12 (2013)</h2>
<h3>IMDb: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2370248/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_26" rel="noopener">7.9</a></h3>
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">
<p>
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Short Term 12 Official Trailer #1 (2013) - Brie Larson Movie HD" width="1042" height="586" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qhS6tvSb0UQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</p>
</figure>
<p>Speaking of crimes, <em>Short Term 12 </em>is probably the best movie you’ve never heard of, and it stars some pretty big names from before they were big. </p>
<p>There’s Brie Larson (who went on to do 2015’s <em>Room</em> and 2019’s <em>Captain Marvel</em>), Rami Malek (2018’s <em>Bohemian Rhapsody</em> and the USA Network’s <em>Mr. Robot</em>), LaKeith Stanfield (2021’s <em>Judas and the Black Messiah</em> and FX’s <em>Atlanta</em>), and Stephanie Beatriz (Fox / NBC’s <em>Brooklyn Nine-Nine</em> and 2021’s <em>Encanto</em>).</p>
<p>And of course, the film stars Kaitlyn Dever.</p>
<p>Led by Larson’s moving performance as Grace, <em>Short Term 12</em> is set at a group home for troubled teenagers, and tells the story of the kids themselves and the counselors who spend time with them. </p>
<p>Here, Dever plays Jayden Cole, a recent arrival with a history of self-harm, to whom Larson’s Grace Howard grows close.</p>
<p>The film is very well-written, well-paced, and definitely well-acted, and it’s one I can’t recommend enough.</p>
<h2>Last Man Standing (2011-2021)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1828327/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_8" rel="noopener">7.6</a></h3>

<p>ABC’s <em>Last Man Standing</em>, a sit-com about a sporting goods store executive and his family, may not be critically acclaimed outside of IMDb. </p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/last_man_standing/s01" rel="noopener">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, for example, described the first season as “thoroughly middling” and gave it a 14% rating — but it did last a good 10 years, spanning nine seasons and nearly 200 episodes. </p>
<p>The show stars Tim Allen as Mike Baxter, who lives with his wife and three daughters in Denver, Colorado. The show frames him as the odd man out of the household, and often contrasts his home life with his work life at Outdoor Man, where he sells sporting goods.</p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever, who played his youngest daughter Eve, was a regular all throughout seasons 1 through 6. She then became a rarer but still recurring character in later seasons to make room for other projects. </p>
<p>Allegedly her father’s favorite child, Eve is quick-witted, sarcastic, and athletic, often beating her own father in sports, though she sometimes breaks out of the tomboy mold.</p>
<p>In this scene, Dever gets to showcase a little of her vocal talent:</p>

</p>
</figure>
<p>If you’re a softie for family-centric films like I am, then you might enjoy this 2018 film even though we don’t get to see so much of Kaitlyn Dever in it.</p>
<p>Felix van Groeningen’s <em>Beautiful Boy </em>tells the story of father and son David and Nicholas Sheff, and the latter’s struggle with addiction. Nicholas is played masterfully by Timothée Chalamet, while Dever plays a supporting role as Lauren, a fellow addict and love interest. </p>
<p>She makes good use of her limited screen time though, and gives us the gift of an emotionally intense scene with the lead character.</p>
<h2>Booksmart (2019)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1489887/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_14" rel="noopener">7.1</a></h3>

</figure>
<p>In Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, Kaitlyn Dever plays Amy Anstler, sharing lead credits with Beanie Feldstein, who plays her best friend Molly Davidson. </p>
<p><em>Booksmart </em>lets Kaitlyn go back to her comedy roots, as it tells the story of two goody two-shoes who decide to party for the first and final time with their peers before they leave for college. </p>
<p>This time, though, she plays an awkward lesbian who’s crushing on her classmate. And she — like the film in general — never misses a beat.</p>
<p>Fast, fresh, and funny, the film even topped Rotten Tomatoes’ <a target="_blank" href="https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/guide/the-50-best-comedy-movies-of-the-2010s/" rel="noopener">list of the best comedy movies</a> of the 2010s. Moreover, both lead performances have been (rightfully) praised. Dever and Feldstein even ended up becoming real-life friends because of the film.</p>
<h2>Outside In (2018)</h2>
<h3>IMDb Rating: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7260048/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_18" rel="noopener">6.7</a></h3>

</p>
</figure>
<p>Lynn Shelton’s <em>Outside In </em>is all about Chris, played by Jay Duplass, who, at the start of the film, is released from prison after serving 20 years.</p>
<p>He has his high school teacher, Carol (Edie Falco), to thank for it. But as Chris struggles to get on his feet in a world that’s changed so much since he went behind bars, another problem is arising. </p>
<p>He’s in love with Carol, who now has a husband and a teenage daughter.</p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever plays the said teenage daughter, whose name is Hildy. She eventually befriends Chris, and the two bond. Though the drama is anchored on Duplass and Falco’s compelling performances, Dever holds her own, too, in this bittersweet film about love and circumstance.</p>

<p>I have to be honest. The 6.6 IMDb rating on this one is confusing given the film’s poor reviews. It currently has a 33% rating on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/men_women_and_children" rel="noopener">Rotten Tomatoes</a>, which might be a bit more accurate, but this <em>is</em> an article based on IMDb, not on Rotten Tomatoes, and so I must soldier on.</p>
<p>The film tells the story of several teenagers and their parents as they navigate the sometimes murky world of intimacy and the Internet. </p>
<p>In <em>Men, Women &amp; Children, </em>Donald and Helen Truby are cheating on each other through web-based services like Ashley Madison, while their son Chris has taken an unhealthy level of liking to online pornography. </p>
<p>He also sexts with his classmate Hannah, whose mom likes to post revealing, often provocative photographs of her online.</p>
<p>In contrast, Kaitlyn Dever’s character Brandy Beltmeyer is guarded by her overprotective mother Patricia, who monitors her texts and social media use.</p>
<p>The whole thing feels a bit like one of those moral panic movies you’re forced to watch at a Catholic high school, designed to try and scare you away from sex and the Internet.</p>
<p>And that’s a shame, because the topic of media use and intimacy <em>is</em> timely then and now, and director Jason Reitman (who gave us 2007’s <em>Juno</em>) has plenty of stars to work with. Dever is joined by the likes of Jennifer Garner, Judy Greer, Rosemarie DeWitt, Ansel Elgort, and Adam Sandler. Even Timothée Chalamet has a small role.</p>
<p>But all that star power can’t fix a poor script and an overbearing approach — though Dever and Elgort in particular do try their very best.</p>
<h2>Laggies / Say When (2014)</h2>

<p>Also directed by <em>Outside In</em>’s Lynn Shelton, <em>Laggies</em> (or <em>Say When</em>, if you’re based in the UK) stars Keira Knightley as Megan, a 28-year-old slacker going through a quarter-life crisis. </p>
<p>Kaitlyn Dever joins a pretty star-studded cast here, too, as her character Misty is best friends with Chloë Grace Moretz’s Annika, whose father Craig is played by Sam Rockwell.</p>
<p>But the cast is as far as the similarities go with <em>Men, Women &amp; Children. </em>This rom-com is decidedly light and doesn’t try to teach you too many morals. It’s enjoyable, too, and Shelton has a way of crafting scenes that make you empathize with her characters.</p>
<p>Dever has said several times in interviews how she loves learning from everybody she gets to work with, and maybe part of her remarkable skill today is thanks to movies like this one.</p>
