Today, New York magazine posted an article about Lauren Ambrose… playing Juliet in Central Park and nursing her 4-month-old son on the side. It begins:
This article is giving Lauren Ambrose nightmares…
How can you walk away from an opening like that?!
But the article also goes into other things: other projects she’s doing, including Jezebel James and her reasons for doing it:
Her most curious move, though, was shooting a pilot for an old-fashioned sitcom that Fox picked up for mid-season, The Return of Jezebel James (a working title, thank goodness), written by Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and co-starring Parker Posey. (Curiosity No. 2: Parker Posey is doing a sitcom.) Ambrose plays “this hippie disaster living in grungy, like … I’d say the East Village, but that’s not really grungy … whatever the new grungy neighborhood is now,” who agrees to move in with her type A sister and act as her surrogate. Why a sitcom? Credit [her son] Orson again. It shoots in Astoria. “To work where I live, isn’t that the whole idea?”
