-“I started playing Elsbeth fourteen years ago in ‘The good wife‘. She was described as a Columbo in the feminine. In the series, Elsbeth is like a fish out of water, but it is also true for this character in the television world. Nobody expected that Carrie Preston one day be the star of a series on a major channel. So obviously, as a woman, who is no longer twenty, at the head of a series, I had a lot of pressure”affirms Carrie Preston.
Carrie Preston isn’t worried about her character sticking to her
The actress is, in any case, not afraid that by finding, once again, her role asElsbeththe public only reduces her to this character. ” I adore Elsbeth. I have played very different roles for thirty years and I have had a chameleon-like career. I’m happy to be recognized, even if people often don’t know my name or just call me Carrie.”assure Carrie Preston.
Season 1 of Elsbeth with Carrie Prestoncan be discovered from Wednesday January 8, 2025 at 9:10 p.m. on TF1. Two new episodes will be broadcast every Monday.
