Elisabeth Olsen: Last News

Jenelle Riley Deputy Awards and Features Editor At a screening and Q&A promoting her film “His Three Daughters,” Natasha Lyonne revealed she once auditioned for a lead role in the 1998 cult classic “Wild Things.” The erotic thriller directed by John McNaughton remains memorable for its lurid atmosphere, twisty plot and frank sexual scenes, including a threesome between characters played by Matt Dillon, Neve Campbell and Denise Richards. Lyonne, who is currently starring in “His Three Daughters,” written and directed by Azazel Jacob and which hits Netflix Friday, appeared with castmates Carrie Coon, Elisabeth Olsen and Jovan Adepo at the LA event.

TORONTO – We’re not sure writer and director Azazel Jacobs needed a comeback after 2020’s disappointing “French Exit,” but we’re delighted to report he’s delivered another exquisite drama with his latest endeavor, “His Three Daughters.” Debuting at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, ‘Daughters’ follows three siblings as they come to grips with the impending death of their father. And, as in any family, tension abounds.

Jenelle Riley Deputy Awards and Features Editor Though Tom Pelphrey was already a two-time Daytime Emmy-winner for his work in the daytime drama “Guiding Light” and had been working steadily on stage and screen, his move to “Ozark’s” third season took his career to a new level. He blazed onscreen as Ben Davis, the bipolar brother of Wendy Byrde (Laura Linney), and seemingly shot to stardom overnight. It’s been a busy couple of years for the actor both professionally and personally — his partner Kaley Cuoco gave birth to their first child, a daughter, on March 30. And now Pelphrey is starring in “Love and Death,” HBO Max’s limited series from David E. Kelley about Texas housewife Candy Montgomery (played by Elisabeth Olsen), who killed her friend Betty Gore in 1980 after being confronted with evidence of Montgomery’s affair with Gore’s husband. (Montgomery pleaded self-defense and was acquitted of murder.) Pelphrey plays Don Crowder, a friend of Candy’s who becomes her defense attorney, despite never having tried a criminal case.
