Betty Gilpin stars in the gripping limited series, American Primeval.
Gilpin plays a mother fleeing from her past, with her young son, in the unforgiving and brutal wild west. But American Primeval is no traditional Western.
This week, Krista Smith brings back her 2019 interview with Gilpin. At the time, Gilpin starred in the Netflix comedy series, GLOW. Gilpin also went on to publish her first book, a collection of essays called, All the Women in My Brain: And Other Concerns.

BONUS | Now On Netflix: American Primeval & Back in Action
In a difficult start to 2025, Krista Smith addresses the devastating fires that have spread throughout Los Angeles. We hope this bonus episode of Now On Netflix can provide a little bit of respite.

Cameron Diaz
Cameron Diaz joins the show to talk about her new movie, Back in Action. Diaz and Jamie Foxx co-star as Emily and Matt — two secret agents who give up their careers to start a family. But when their cover is blown, the couple is dragged back into the world of espionage that they thought they left behind.
Diaz explains what made her say yes to Back in Action after a 10-year hiatus from acting, shares why the prospect of re-teaming with Foxx (who she previously co-starred with in Any Given Sunday and Annie) played a big role in her decision, and describes why she was excited for the physical challenge of playing Emily.
She also discusses her long-time interest in health and wellness (which led to two New York Times Bestsellers and her organic, transparency-focused wine brand Avaline), reflects on a few key moments in her career, and talks about how the industry has changed since her last on-screen appearance.

Karla Sofía Gascón
Karla Sofía Gascón joins the show to talk about her experience starring in Jacques Audiard’s bold, genre-defying film, Emilia Pérez. Gascón plays the title character – a menacing cartel leader who fakes her own death to live authentically as her true self.
Gascón shares her initial reaction to the script and the intense preparation that followed, describes the lengthy process that she and Audiard went through to find the right version of each character, and explains why playing Emilia was more challenging than playing Manitas.
She also talks about working with her co-stars (Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, and Adriana Paz), discusses the power of women on screen, and ruminates on what has been an incredible breakthrough moment in her career.
