In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter this week, released in anticipation of Rudolph’s new Apple TV+ series “Loot,” Rudolph talks about roles she’s turned down. One was the title role in the BBC dark comedy created by Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Rudolph said she was offered the role and would have immediately done it. “But there was no way I was about to move to Europe for months. Like, how?” Rudolph said in the interview. The role of Eve would eventually go to Oh who would go on to win a Golden Globe for playing the character in 2019. Oh would be nominated three times for her performance at the Primetime Emmy awards though she never won.

Though Rudolph had to turn down the role, she certainly doesn’t regret it. She’s gone on to have numerous successes, including winning an Emmy for her voice performance on the Netflix animated series “Big Mouth,” as well as have a cameo in partner Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar-nominated feature “Licorice Pizza” released last year.

Her new series, “Loot” centers on Molly Novak (Rudolph), who discovers her picture-perfect husband (Adam Scott) is cheating on her.
