“I loved working on it – maybe more than anything I’ve worked on! – and I miss it a lot. But I feel very grateful for the time I had on the show,” she recalled fondly.
The show explored the world of women’s wrestling, with Brie in the starring role of Ruth Wilder. It ran from 2017 – 2019 for three seasons before being cancelled by Netflix in 2020.
“It’s the great heartbreak of my career. But it will forever live on as, like, this great thing,” she said of the cancellation. “Yeah, it was surprising! But it was sort of eclipsed by the shock of everything that was happening globally. [Laughs] You know, so in a way it was almost like it put things in perspective.”
