**Cannes, France** – Award-winning actress Christina Hendricks (“Mad Men,” “Good Girls”) is revealing her current TV obsessions and upcoming projects at France’s Series Mania. Hendricks admits to being captivated by HBO’s “The White Lotus,” noting its cultural impact: “There is something about TV that makes you feel connected. I especially enjoy it when you can’t binge it and when you have to wait.” She observes that the show’s popularity is a reflection of the impact television has on viewers, creating shared cultural moments and conversations.
Currently promoting her new show “Small Town, Big Story” at Series Mania, a quirky sci-fi series set in an Irish town known for UFO sightings, Hendricks also discussed her upcoming role in Hulu’s limited series “Good American Family.” Based on a true story and documentary, the series delves into the controversial case of Natalie Grace, exploring the complexities of the accusations against her. Hendricks draws parallels to Hulu’s successful “The Act,” highlighting the compelling nature of such real-life dramas.
Balancing several projects, including “The Buccaneers,” Hendricks reflects on her career, noting the enduring popularity of both “Mad Men” and “Good Girls,” which she considers “cult classics” with distinct, yet overlapping, fan bases. She praises the unique characters she portrays, emphasizing the relatable humanity, even in those with flaws, like her “Small Town, Big Story” character, a Hollywood producer with a hidden vulnerability and a penchant for humor that doesn’t always land. Hendricks concludes that the diversity in the tone and genre of her upcoming projects is exciting.
