\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI, I NEED POLICE AND AN AMBULANCE IMMEDIATELY. LOOKING BACK, SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE. I\u2019M LIVING A LIFE I NEVER WAS SUPPOSED TO LIVE. THE MURDOCHS ARE A SOUTH CAROLINA LEGAL DYNASTY. ARE YOU GETTING THE CHILLS? A BRAND NEW TRUE CRIME MINI SERIES MAKES ITS STREAMING DEBUT TODAY ON HULU. MURDOCH DEATH IN THE FAMILY IS AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW THERE ON HULU, AND THE AWARD WINNING CAST REENACTS SHOCKING EVENTS THAT COME TO LIGHT IN THE WAKE OF A DEADLY BOAT CRASH INVOLVING A MEMBER OF THIS INFAMOUS MURDOCH FAMILY. IN THE SERIES IS BASED ON REAL EVENTS, REAL TRIAL, SO MUCH AND A POPULAR PODCAST REALLY WAS THE INSPIRATION OF THIS MINI SERIES, RECOUNTING YEARS OF REPORTING. AND WE\u2019VE GOT A LOCAL ACTRESS PLAYING A BIG ROLE IN BRINGING ALL OF THIS TO YOUR SCREEN. JOINING ME NOW IS LAKE COUNTY OWN CINDY CARR. GREAT TO SEE YOU. GREAT TO SEE YOU TOO, JASON. I LOVE JUST WATCHING THE TRAILERS AS WE\u2019VE BEEN GETTING EXCITED ABOUT HAVING YOU HERE. THIS STREAMING MINISERIES LOOKS LIKE IT IS REALLY GOING TO BE SOMETHING SPECIAL TO WATCH. BUT VERY CHILLING. IT WILL, IT WILL. AND A GREAT CAST. GREAT CAST. YEAH. TALK ABOUT HOW HOW YOU GOT INVOLVED IN THIS AS A LAKE COUNTY ACTRESS BEING PART OF THIS SERIES THAT KIND OF FOLLOWS THIS SOUTH CAROLINA FAMILY, RIGHT? WELL, I HAVE AN AGENT, TRACY ICON PARK, TALENT GROUP, BREVARD TOWN. ALL RIGHT. WE\u2019LL GIVE TRACY A LITTLE HELLO OVER THERE IN THE STUDIO. AND AND SHE SUBMITTED ME, AND I GOT THE AUDITION, AND I GOT THE JOB. HAD WHAT IT TAKES TO BE MAGGIE. NO, ACTUALLY, YOU PLAY THE MATRIARCH OF THE FAMILY, SO WE SEE. YEAH, WE SEE MAGGIE HERE. AND LIBBY IS THE ROLE THAT YOU PLAY. I PLAY LIBBY. WHAT IS LIBBY\u2019S ROLE IN THIS SERIES? AS THE MATRIARCH? YEAH, SHE\u2019S THE MATRIARCH OF THE COMMUNITY AND SORT OF THE TOWN, TOO. IT\u2019S A VERY WEALTHY, AFFLUENT. YEAH, FAMILY. AND SHE IS THE MOTHER OF ALEC MURDOCH, WHO IS THE ONE WHO WAS ACCUSED OF MURDER AND IS NOW IN PRISON. AND THE MOTHER IN LAW OF MAGGIE, WHO\u2019S PLAYED BY PATRICIA ARQUETTE. AND JASON CLARKE, PLAYS ALEC AND GERALD MCRANEY, HIS WIFE, ACTUALLY RANDOLPH\u2019S WIFE, PLAYED BY GERALD MCRANEY. AND SO WHEN THIS ALL BEGAN, IT WAS IT WAS BASICALLY THIS, YOU KNOW, VERY WELL-KNOWN FAMILY IN SOUTH CAROLINA. ALEC HAD THIS LAW CAREER, AND THEY WERE SEEMINGLY WELL RESPECTED IN THE COMMUNITY. AT 2019 BOAT CRASH INVOLVING ONE OF THE SONS AND AND INTOXICATION. AND THEN THINGS BEGAN TO UNRAVEL. AND THERE HAVE BEEN SOME UNEXPLAINED DEATHS AND ALL OF THESE THINGS. AND THEN ALEC MAKES THIS CALL THAT WE HEARD THERE AND SAYS HIS WIFE AND HIS SON HAD BEEN KILLED. AND THAT LED TO THIS TRIAL. RIGHT. WELL, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO FOLLOW AS WE GO INTO THIS MINI SERIES HERE? WELL, YOU\u2019VE GOT TO FOLLOW THE DYNAMICS OF THIS FAMILY, WHICH IS DYSFUNCTIONAL AS MANY FAMILIES ARE, BUT ON A MASSIVE SCALE. AND AND MY ROLE IS SIMPLY AS THE MATRIARCH TO KIND OF, YOU KNOW, NOT HOLD IT TOGETHER BUT BE PART OF IT. AND OH, WE CAN\u2019T WAIT TO SEE YOU IN THIS. AND YOU\u2019VE YOU\u2019VE BEEN IN SO MANY THINGS. OUR VIEWERS HAVE PROBABLY RECOGNIZING YOU\u2019VE JUST SEEN HERE SWEET MAGNOLIAS AS MISS FRANCIS, BLOODLINE AS SUSAN WIDMARK. YOU WERE IN THE TOOTH FAIRY TWO. YEAH. OH, THAT\u2019S A FUN ONE. AS LADY BIRD BILLINGS. SOME HALLMARK MOVIES, INDEPENDENT FEATURES, INTERNATIONAL FILMS. YOU\u2019VE DONE SHORTS, AND THIS CAREER IS SORT OF A SECOND ACT. IT IS A SECOND ACT. YES IT IS. I WAS A TEACHER FOR 42 YEARS, AND THEN AND THEN RETIRED AND SAID, OH, TRY SOMETHING ELSE. WELL, I ALWAYS KNEW I WOULD TRY THIS, SOMETHING ELSE. IT WAS ALWAYS ON MY BUCKET LIST. ALL THOSE 42 YEARS. AND I KEPT MY PROMISE TO MYSELF. I LOVE THAT. YEAH, I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING THAT\u2019S PRETTY REMARKABLE IS THAT WHEN WE MAKE THOSE PROMISES TO OURSELVES TO DO THOSE THINGS, TO PUT THEM ON OUR BUCKET LIST, WE GOT TO DO THAT, RIGHT? WE GOT TO. YEAH. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO SOMEBODY WHO\u2019S YOUNG OR OR OR YOUNG AT HEART? AND THEY MAYBE WANT TO PURSUE A CAREER LIKE THIS? WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I WOULD SAY GET TRAINING AND YOU\u2019RE VERY IF YOU LIVE IN THE ORLANDO AREA, YOU\u2019RE VERY LUCKY BECAUSE THERE\u2019S A LOT OF A LOT OF EXCELLENT COACHES AND DO ALL OF THEM AND THEN KIND OF ZERO IN ON THE ONE THAT YOU LIKE THE BEST AND GET AS MUCH TRAINING AS YOU CAN BE IN AS MUCH THINGS AS YOU CAN. VERY FORTUNATE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA BECAUSE YOU\u2019VE GOT TWO UNIVERSITIES WHO DO FILM. AND SO THAT\u2019S WHAT I STARTED WITH. I EVEN JUMPED OUT OF AN AIRPLANE AT 15,000FT AFTER ONE OF THE ROLES. BUT YOU DO YOU DO THAT AND YOU GET YOUR GROUNDWORK DONE, AND THEN YOU SUDDENLY START GETTING AN AGENT AND YOU SUDDENLY START GETTING AUDITIONS, AND YOU SUDDENLY START GETTING JOBS. WELL, IT DIDN\u2019T JUST SUDDENLY START WITHOUT YOUR KIND OF TALENT THERE. CINDY, CONGRATULATIONS ON THIS. WE\u2019RE GOING TO BE WATCHING THE NEW STREAMING MINI SERIES EPISODES. THE FIRST TWO IN MURDOCH, A DEATH IN THE FAMILY ARE ON HULU RIGHT NOW. AND OF COURSE, THE STREAMING MINI SERIES IS GOING TO BE A BIG HIT. EVERYBODY. I THINK TRUE CRIME SPACE LOVES IT ALL AND CONTINUED SUCCESS WE CAN\u2019T WAIT TO SEE. ONWARD AND UPWARD. THE TRAJECTORY FOR YOUR CAREER. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND WE\u2019RE SO HAPPY TO HAVE ONE OF OUR OWN CENTRAL FLORIDIANS IN THE SPOT\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
