‘I always get lines thrown at me from those movies, and it just warms the heart,’ she told the publication.

In the film, she directs herself in a drama about a bereaved woman seeking a new life off the grid in Wyoming.
The cast includes Kim Dickens, Demián Bichir and Warren Christie, but the film’s release remains unclear given the ongoing health crisis.
Previously, she made her first forays behind the camera during production on Netflix’s House of Cards, helming ten episodes of the hit streaming show.

She told Stellar she was excited by the process of collaboration involved in directing on House of Cards, and ‘caught the bug’.
‘It’s so different to acting, which is a soloist act. You’re with yourself much of the time, rehearsing your lines by yourself, doing your written homework by yourself.
‘I just thought, “Wow, this is really so enlightening and invigorating, to work with all the department heads and their teams”‘ she said.
