Her hit drama, This Is Us, ended its six-season run in 2022, but Chrissy Metz still carries her popular character, Kate, with her. “I definitely do miss her. Any character you play, you get so close,” Chrissy, 42, tells Closer. “You become them, they are you. You don’t know where you stop and they start.” The Emmy and two-time Golden Globe nominee has been keeping busy. In February, she saw the publication of her children’s book and album, When I Talk to God, I Talk About You. She also garnered rave reviews for her recent dramatic turn as a prescription drug–addicted mother in the independent feature film Stay Awake. “It’s really important to talk about this stuff,” Chrissy says of the film, which is based on a true story. “Once the fear of addressing it goes away, there can be some healing and empathy.”
What are some of your favorite memories from This Is Us?
I think any of the weddings, whether it was Kate’s wedding, or any of the flashbacks. I’m always a sucker for wedding montages or episodes. There were also so many great scenes! Seeing Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) grow up to become this very successful artist after Rebecca (Mandy Moore) tried to chase her dreams as a singer. It was really nice to see Jack do that. It felt very special to me.
You also got a chance to sing on the show.
Yes, music has always been my first love.
