“Part of me was like, I hope there’s a way I don’t have to go full monster”
Photo: Araya Diaz/Getty Images Martha Kelly is known for comedy, both as a stand-up and an actor who worked on projects like FX’s Baskets and Fox’s The Great North. Yet there she is on the current season of Euphoria, playing a drug dealer named Laurie who’s as serious as a shot of morphine, something that, coincidentally, she administered to Zendaya’s Rue in the most recent episode.
I would imagine one of the reasons he was interested in you is your deadpan delivery. That works in a different context in comedy, but bringing it to this character makes her more unsettling. Did you talk about that? In episode five, Laurie says, “I don’t think I’ve ever been angry.” It’s almost funny. Did you draw on your comedy instincts even though it’s a dramatic piece?
When Rue comes to her in withdrawal, Laurie tells a story about her first encounter with opioids. Is that story about her addiction true?
