Annette Bening

UNDERSTANDING THE BALANCE BETWEEN DARK COMEDY AND MYSTERY is a unique quality of Annette Bening, which she puts to good use in Peacock's limited series Apples Never Fall (March 14), based on Liane Moriarty's book.

"Everybody has a secret, and that's fun." Bening plays Joy Delaney, the matriarch of a seemingly perfect family who suddenly disappears. "Even in the best comedies, there's a deep dis-ease inside of people that we're trying to dramatize." In typical Bening style, she's able to show this dance between genres with such subtlety.
