You would think Cheryl Strayed would be used to seeing her own life onscreen by now. The 2014 adaptation of her memoir, Wild, earned two Oscar nominations, for Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern, who created some of the most intense moments of Strayed’s life for an audience of millions. But as the premiere of Tiny Beautiful Things nears, Strayed—whose Dear Sugar advice column inspired the show—is still figuring out how to feel. “Nobody is as surprised as me,” Strayed tells Rebecca Ford of all this attention. “I am really always going to be that girl who grew up literally without indoor plumbing in rural northern Minnesota, who just dreamed of being a writer but didn’t dream any of this. I mean, I couldn’t even imagine it.”
Elsewhere in HWD, Anthony Breznican catches up with Simon Kassianides, whose angry young Mandalorian, Axe Woves, has returned to the Disney+ series; Savannah Walsh runs down how the late-night shows reacted to Donald Trump’s arrest on Tuesday; Richard Lawson reviews Netflix’s delicious new series Beef; and over in Vanities, Elle Fanning has confessed she’s still a “hopeless romantic” despite a recent breakup.
