In the tradition of 'Normal People' and 'Nine Perfect Strangers' comes a new limited series on Hulu based on the best selling novel, 'Tell Me Lies.'
"Tell Me Lies" is about the dangers of not communicating, and Lucy's journey mirrors Van Patten's experience.
"Just in terms of having no idea who I was and really thinking I did," she said. "I've been on a long journey to realize that vulnerability is the most powerful, beautiful thing in the world, and I hope Lucy realizes that too." It's just one reason the star plays Lucy so convincingly and compellingly, and her evolution didn't come all on its own.Van Patten lived in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, before moving to Los Angeles recently, and she says she's already missing New York City.Van Patten has held her own opposite some of the world's best actors, including Nicole Kidman, Michael Shannon and the cast of "Nine Perfect Strangers.
Playing different characters has helped to define her as one of the most skilled performers of her generation.
