'If we have an opportunity to distract or entertain, I feel very lucky to be part of a community that's helping [do that].' Reese Witherspoon (ReeseW) on promoting LittleFiresEverywhere during the coronavirus pandemic
Last Thursday, TV productions had only just begun to shut down as a result of the World Health Organization officially declaring the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic. And while Hulu canceled the series' red carpet premiere scheduled for that evening, the cast of Hulu's, an adaptation of Celeste Ng's best-selling novel, still headed to the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills that morning for what would turn out to be the last Hollywood junket for the foreseeable future.
the morning of March 12, well before any emergency regulations were put in place by the state and national governments. "If we have an opportunity to distract or entertain, I feel very lucky to be part of a community that's helping [do that]." Added her co-star and fellow executive producer Kerry Washington, "Figuring out how to have moments of respite and calm and joy even in these times is really important because our stress level impacts our immunity. If we're doing everything we can to stay well, then we have to get all the facts we need to get in order to make smart decisions about taking care of ourselves and our families. But we also need to figure out how to cultivate some calm.
The duo's new series, an exploration of motherhood told via the stories of very different women whose lives intersect in a unique way in 1990s suburban Ohio, debuts its first three episodes on Wednesday, with subsequent episodes premiering weekly.
Both of you have been producing for a while, but what was it like working together as producers and stars?It was really, really fun. But I think one of the reasons why we had such a good time is because we put in the same amount of work. We worked really hard. We have teams around us that work really hard. With all of that collaborative, creative energy, we were able to build something that we're really proud of and have good time doing it.
