    Robin Wright on the Delicious Clash of 'Alpha Females' in The Girlfriend

    Robin Wright knew that in her new Prime Video show The Girlfriend, which she developed in addition to starring in, she would have to fight the potential for melodrama, because “it could easily go there,” she told Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott. “This was so much of our discussion in the writer's room. How do we keep it plausible?” Wright plays Laura, whose adult son Daniel (Laurie Davidson) starts dating a suspicious woman named Cherry (Olivia Cooke) and proceeds to spiral out of control. “She does not want to lose him to anything. She is very overprotective and ends up becoming possessive.” Despite her sharing few similarities with her character— “I'm not that possessive with my son.”— she still feels a kinship with her. “Everyone you play, as venal as they can be, they believe that they're doing the right thing. So you have to believe that within them.” Wearing many hats, Wright doubled as co-star and director for many episodes. “I could be in the scene with Olivia or Laurie and I'm watching them as a director, like split brain, you know? But I'm still feeding them the character, Laura.” And while she’s directed a number of projects, she says she still has room to grow. “I'm still learning. I'm learning and trying to learn how to get my style.”  Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.newsweek.com/newsletter/the-culture/  Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott  Subscribe to Newsweek’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/newsweek  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Domhnall Gleeson Feels the Legacy of ‘The Office’ on ‘The Paper’

    Of the new sitcom The Paper, about a struggling Midwestern newspaper and its staff, Domhnall Gleeson is quick to note that while it shares a universe with The Office (they share the same mockumentary crew and a cast member), its motivation is different. “I think the people who go into work in this workplace, their reason for going to work is very different than a lot of people in The Office,” Gleeson tells Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott. And he credits that delicate balance of nostalgia and newness to creator Greg Daniels. “Part of what makes him great is that he is continually interested in the next thing.” Gleeson adds, “he’s looking at the next funny idea.” At the show’s center is Gleeson’s Ned, the editor-in-chief who Gleeson describes as “hopeful and optimistic”—both his greatest asset and flaw. “He thinks the world is a better place than it is, and he wants the world to be an even better place.” Ultimately, Gleeson hopes The Paper has a similar impact on the fans as The Office did. “It’s nice to be a part of something that hopefully will make people happy or give people a warm place to spend time.”  Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.newsweek.com/newsletter/the-culture/  Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott  Subscribe to Newsweek’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/newsweek  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
