Gillian Anderson had been dreading this. A tripod had arrived at her home in the U.K., along with a mess of lights and, really, just the thought of having to sit through an hour-plus on Zoom had he…

I’m 53, Sarah, and I’ve really only been offered comedy in the last three years of my life, and I don’t think that’s because I’m any funnier than I used to be. I think a lot of it is that people just couldn’t fathom it, whether it was that Scully was still in their minds or it was someone else, because I’ve played a lot of dark characters, too. And so they just weren’t coming. And then came [Netflix comedy]— and I passed when it first came to me because I didn’t think it was right.

I would like to have told myself that I didn’t need to excise myself from the experience. I was very focused on looking at other actors who had careers that I admired when I was first starting out and wondering what it was about them that made it possible for them to be chosen or employed and I’d often try, in an audition or a social setting, to mimic what I imagined was the desired effect, taking me out of the scenario.

GillianA I'm just confused as to why it's okay for her to have a breakdown at work but if I did or most other people... we'd be fired.

GillianA A few guest stars have said she was unpleasant to be around on The X-Files. I guess she was having a hard time and lashing out.

GillianA Well we always thought this was going to be interesting 🤔...

GillianA Doing an average of 24 episodes a season, for years, wore down the viewer as well. Thank you for all of your hard work Gillian!

GillianA Can we talk about the lens choice for this portrait?

GillianA Danna scully

GillianA I don't blame her. Living in Vancouver and filming mostly at night night night - doesn't give a person a healthy mindset. Lack of sun, heavy rain, night filming. All hard on a person.

GillianA Enjoyed this. How one separates from a character has always been an interest to me... especially when you see the demise of some actors. Seems it can be quite the challenge ❤️

GillianA SUCH an interesting panel, TY THR👏

MsSarahPaulson Love this! We are more successful when we help each other.

sarahpaulsbean MsSarahPaulson one of the many reasons I appreciate her

jkbjournalist MsSarahPaulson women being pitted against one another they try to create conflict with a scarcity mindset: if women are fighting against each other, they won’t unite to fight the larger issue of institutional structural misogyny & inequity divide & conquer is how abusers keep their power

MsSarahPaulson MsSarahPaulson is the best thing that could have happened to us , when she smile you feel better right away . I will always love my angel MsSarahPaulson

MsSarahPaulson i love her sm & her MIND

MsSarahPaulson Why is this so sad :(

MsSarahPaulson You can do everything, such a talent 👌

MsSarahPaulson I mean I think she would be great because she was phenomenal in Oceans 8 which I think is close to comedy in a way

MsSarahPaulson Down With Love erasure

_naczixx_ MsSarahPaulson begging someone to cast sarah in a comedy, it’s not a want, it’s a need

Oh Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip just didn’t exist?!

MsSarahPaulson she is SO funny! I would rush to a see any comedy with her in it!

MsSarahPaulson weird rly cuz she's freaking hilarious in every interview ever. come on, Hollywood, do the thing!

MsSarahPaulson Starving actors got beat out for jobs,typical Hollywood mentality/over-use certain well-connected actors/NEPOTISM.Not that she lacks talent,No question there.Hollywood needs a COVID REALITY CHECK.Know what sucks & how to fix it. MarsPeeps200PicsSince2004

MsSarahPaulson She can do anything!! Love her!!

MsSarahPaulson MeganLBurr not sure she'd be the right age, but maybe she can be in 'a thousand words.' she said road picture after all.

MsSarahPaulson she was in what women want and desperate housewives... relax y’all

MsSarahPaulson I saw her in a comedy, and she was just fine. Long ago. Involved hostages in a convenience store. Some really funny guy starred. I'm a veg.

MsSarahPaulson I wish she team up with Kristen Wiig as sister team!!

MsSarahPaulson The thing is Sarah is a versatile actor. She could do it all, comedy, horror, drama, thriller, and possibly action.

MsSarahPaulson give her a fucking sitcom! please where we have to sign?

MsSarahPaulson MsSarahPaulson I love your comedic work! If you’re ever looking for a hilarious stint as the high-powered director of a female fantasy fulfillment camp I’ve got a pilot for ya. Think Bridesmaids meets Fantasy Island 🏝

evansdotmandy MsSarahPaulson She was funny in Studio 60.

MsSarahPaulson Bring back your eyebrows 🤨

MsSarahPaulson benfalcone please make this happen.

MsSarahPaulson I've already predicted that in the next few years, people will want more comedies, romances, rom-coms, & lighter fare as opposed to SF/Horror, Tragic Historicals, & dark Superhero movies because of collective global trauma. Just like in the 30's. Actors are tired of dark stuff.

I really wanna see her in a meaty role to show her true acting chops. We got a glance of it in WandaVision.

I miss about her sisters Mary-Kate and Ashley.

Super empowering in an empowering way.

GillianA What about the right to be hired of people who are on the discriminated against end of diversity initiatives?

GillianA while you're at it can u post the video footage too pls thank u

Thrilled to see MJ Rodriguez here since the Television Academy keeps sleeping on her every year.
