When on the set of “Poker Face,” Tippett mentioned he would go take his lunch break by himself so as to not be bothered with “Star Wars” questions and issues of that kind. He would take his lunch and go into the barn on set and eat, and it seems Lyonne had a really related thought. The 2 ended up chatting about their hardest tasks and bonding over their experiences:

“We spent the lunch hour simply having this nice dialog. We bonded over her expertise on ‘Russian Doll’ and mine on ‘Mad God.’ They have been very, very related, as a result of each of these reveals completely broke us as human beings. Actually, significantly, psych ward, rehab-type stuff as a result of we simply dump every part into it and you do not meet too many individuals which you can share that form of expertise with, as in none. I’d bum cigarettes from her and we’d spend a extremely gratifying hour.”

Oh, to be a fly on that barn wall. Lyonne took over as showrunner on season 2 of the Netflix sequence “Russian Doll” whereas additionally writing, directing, and starring within the sequence, so it was a grueling expertise that will need to have taken quite a bit out of her. (She even realized Hungarian!) Diamonds are cast beneath excessive strain, although, and each “Mad God” and “Russian Doll” are true gems.
