\n\tRhea Seehorn<\/a> knew she was in for a big workload on Pluribus<\/a>: She\u2019s in nearly every scene, and sometimes the only person in a scene. She also got to see what that was like up close on her previous series, Better Call Saul, when Bob Odenkirk carried a similar amount of scenes.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c[Pluribus creator] Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould on Better Call Saul, and their murderers row of writers that are all incredible, they do such deep character investigation and portraiture, and it evolves, so you are going to dig deep,\u201d Seehorn told The Hollywood Reporter Monday on the heels of her first ever Golden Globe nomination<\/a>, for lead actress in a TV drama, for her work on the Apple TV series. \u201cI saw Bob do that firsthand.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn Pluribus, Seehorn plays Carol Sturka, one of only a dozen or so people on Earth unaffected by \u201cthe Joining,\u201d an extraterrestrial virus that links the thoughts, feelings and memories of every other person on the planet. The series\u00a0follows Carol as she looks to save humanity \u201cfrom happiness,\u201d as the show\u2019s tagline puts it, or as she sees it, from losing forever the individuality that makes us human. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI was surprised by the amount of psychological portraiture of a woman who\u2019s dealing with isolation. I didn\u2019t know that element of the story [before starting],\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I started seeing those, at first I got a little terrified \u2014 \u2018OK, how am I going to pull this off?\u2019 But I love those scenes as much as any other scene.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPluribus has sparked a lot of discussion among viewers about what it\u2019s really about \u2014\u00a0with pandemic isolation, artificial intelligence among the biggest points of discourse. Gilligan has said he wants the audience to draw its own conclusions from the material, and Seehorn told THR that she\u2019s thrilled people want to delve into it.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s been very gratifying that people really want to talk about the show, and they want to talk to each other, and they\u2019re making it a show they need to watch with others and discuss things,\u201d she said. \u201cI spoke to someone that thought the entire thing is a metaphor for grief and depression. \u2026 Vince wasn\u2019t trying to tell anybody what to think or to preach a certain topic. He started writing this before the pandemic lockdowns \u2014 another person [I spoke to] thought that\u2019s what it\u2019s about.\u2029Well, sort of. It\u2019s about everything. Another person thought it was only about AI, but AI wasn\u2019t the debate topic [that it is now] when Vince started writing this 10 years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSeehorn also said she\u2019s looking forward to attending the Golden Globes<\/a> \u2014\u00a0except for one thing. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m so excited that I get to do this for a living, that I get to do really incredible work for a living, and I love all the people I work with. And then I\u2019m getting invited to the prom for it as well? I\u2019m not jaded at all about it,\u201d she said. \u201cMy only thing, if I\u2019m honest with you, is the red carpet part, I fall apart on. [Laughs] I\u2019m no good at still photos. I feel OK about my physical being in the world in motion. As soon as I\u2019m told to be very still, and I feel like my whole job is to try to look as pretty as possible, it crumbles. I sweat, and then I worry that I have pit stains, and then I freak out, then I do the photos and I go back to having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Golden Globes are produced by Dick Clark Productions, which is owned by Penske Media Corporation,\u00a0The Hollywood Reporter\u2019s\u00a0parent company, in a subsidiary joint venture between Penske Media and Eldridge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rhea Seehorn knew she was in for a big workload on Pluribus: She\u2019s in nearly every scene, and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":174915,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[1096,146,102311,102312,46110,102313,85,46,68266,68263],"class_list":["post-174914","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-awards","tag-entertainment","tag-golden-globe-nominations","tag-golden-globe-nominations-2025","tag-golden-globes","tag-golden-globes-2026","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-pluribus","tag-rhea-seehorn"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174914","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174914"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174914\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174915"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174914"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174914"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174914"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
