The HBO Max series is so much more than a fizzy, flippant spectacle about a catty jet-setting crew\u2014it\u2019s a dark and dizzying puzzle that escorts the viewer from destination to destination, as the titular flight attendant attempts to solve the mystery of why she woke up in a very expensive Bangkok hotel room with her murdered one-night stand lying next to her.<\/p>\n<p>The show is a compelling whodunit, thanks to the charming performance given by Cuoco, who, after starring in nearly 300 episodes of the syndicated sitcom The Big Bang Theory, finally received her first Emmy nomination, for leading The Flight Attendant. In fact, if it wasn\u2019t for Cuoco\u2019s absentmindedly looking through Amazon\u2019s list of upcoming book releases several years ago, the show might not have happened at all (Cuoco serves as executive producer on the project, and she\u2019s the one who optioned it for television). For W\u2019s annual TV Portfolio, the actress opened up about her first Emmy nomination, being an original Bachelor Nation fan, and bringing some much-needed comedy to an otherwise very gloomy mystery on television.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was going through your mind the moment you received your Emmy nomination for The Flight Attendant?<\/strong><br \/>\nYou know, it\u2019s really wild. I\u2019ve been doing this for 30 years, and I\u2019ve never had a moment like that. I love being an actor. Simply put, I\u2019ve never known another life. I\u2019ve never had another job. There are so many good actors that don\u2019t get any recognition. And you work and you work and you work. Then all of a sudden, you get this little gift and this little icing on top of this really massive cake that you don\u2019t even deserve anyway. I never, ever thought I would be Emmy nominated, and I\u2019ve always been so happy with what I\u2019ve done, so this is just an absolute gift.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you find the book that the show is based on, and end up starring in it?<\/strong><br \/>\nI was flipping through Amazon and looking at upcoming releases and books and blah, blah, blah. And I saw The Flight Attendant. It was just a book cover; the book was actually not released. They\u2019ll give you a two-sentence description, and I read it, and I know this sounds very cheesy, but I got this very intense chill. The cover is of a blonde. It doesn\u2019t necessarily look like me, but she\u2019s kind of looking back, and I\u2019m like, I could look like that if I was looking back! I\u2019ve got to get this book. I called my team, and the first thing I asked was, \u201cDid Reese Witherspoon get the rights to this book?\u201d That\u2019s always my first question, because she is very good at diving in and getting these books. And they were like, \u201cNo, it hasn\u2019t even been released yet.\u201d So we got the rights, and then all of a sudden, I had this book, and I\u2019m like, Well, what the hell am I supposed to do now? What do I do with this? And here I am.<\/p>\n<p>Even though you were nominated for an Emmy and are technically in the comedy category, it\u2019s a very dark comedy. Was that intentional, or something that you knew you wanted to achieve? It\u2019s very mysterious, with a lot of layers.<\/p>\n<p>The book is very dark. There is no comedy in this book. When I optioned it and I was forming this team, I thought, There\u2019s no way I can do this without adding a little of the comedy in there, dark comedy. What is the tone? If I could tell you how many times I have used the word \u201ctone\u201d in the last four years, I didn\u2019t know that I could actually say that word as many times as I\u2019ve said it and heard it. \u201cWhat\u2019s the tone of the scene? What\u2019s the tone? What tone? I don\u2019t know if we see the tone in this episode, what is the tone? Why the tone?\u201d I\u2019m not kidding. And you know, it was a tough tone. We were kind of on a tightrope of, is this funny? Is this dark? But the minute you start crying, I want you to laugh, and the minute you are laughing, you\u2019re like, Oh my god, there\u2019s real shit going on. This girl\u2019s got real trauma. That\u2019s my personality; [I\u2019ve] got to bring some levity. You can\u2019t expect an audience to watch something super dark for an hour straight. And interestingly enough, coming out during Covid and during this time, I\u2019m glad we added that levity and that quirkiness, because it made the show stand out. You were either going to get on this flight, or not.<\/p>\n<p>For this portfolio, you chose to portray a contestant from The Bachelorette. Did you have a particular bachelorette in mind?<\/p>\n<p>I loved Kaitlyn Bristowe. She was my favorite [bachelorette]. I\u2019ve been an avid, die-hard, devoted Bachelor slash Bachelorette slash Bachelor in Paradise fan for as long as I can remember. I go deep into Bachelor in Paradise. In fact, I\u2019m mad that Bachelor in Paradise has not turned into a Big Brother situation, where you can just watch them 24 hours a day. That\u2019s what I think they should do.<\/p>\n<p>Bachelor in Paradise is pretty raunchy!<\/p>\n<p>I love Bachelor in Paradise. Oh my god. All these gorgeous, crazy people just stuck on an island together. And then they\u2019re all getting together and getting angry and fighting. I love it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What did you like so much about Kaitlyn?<\/strong><br \/>\nShe was so cool. She was very to the point, she was authentic, she was not fake. I loved that she was just herself. There\u2019ve been some really classic people in the past that have been on the show, but she really was my favorite. I liked that she had an edge. She cussed, she had sex. I just found her to be like a girl\u2019s girl.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your feeling about the fantasy suite? And the windmill fantasy suite, specifically.<\/strong><br \/>\nOh, the fantasy suites are my favorite episodes. I\u2019m always\u2014well, now I feel like they\u2019re getting raunchier and raunchier. Hannah [Brown] went into the windmill fantasy suite many times. I was proud of her. I was impressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For your portrayal of Kaitlyn, did you try to find a dress like hers?<\/strong><br \/>\nI found a dress that was the essence of The Bachelorette. We found a bright red dress. We got the roses, and I was very excited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where was your first kiss? Was it on set?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy first kiss was on set. It was actually not on set, but it was while I was shooting with a guy that was shooting with me, but he took me on a date, and he actually kissed me, and it was my first one. And it was a Disney movie. Kids got wild on those Disney movies back in the day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Were you nervous?<\/strong><br \/>\nNo, it was cool. I had a big crush on him. He was really cute, actually. He was adorable. But then he got fired from the movie, I remember. So obviously, it did not end well for him. It ended well for me. I had a great kiss. I didn\u2019t get fired. It was great.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who was your crush growing up?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy crush is and always will be Brad Pitt. I don\u2019t care, until he\u2019s 80, I will still think he is the hottest thing around.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was your first red carpet outfit?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy pre-stylist days are truly frightening. I was young, so I\u2019m not going to be able to remember my first one, but I do remember my first big one that I did not have a stylist for. It was my first People\u2019s Choice Awards for 8 Simple Rules, with John Ritter. And I remember we went with John. I dressed myself. I remember I had a pink long dress, and I had gotten my hair blown out, but for some reason, I put it up in a ponytail in the car. I didn\u2019t have a publicist at that time, no one to say, \u201cWhat the hell, why the ponytail?\u201d I put it up in the limo, and I was like, This is better. This is better. I remember it like it was yesterday, and being there with my first TV family was really cool, but I don\u2019t know what I was thinking. There were a lot of those \u201cI don&#8217;t know what I was thinking\u201d pre-carpet moments.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kaley heeft een interview gehad met W Magazine op te praten over haar Emmy nominatie voor The Flight Attendant.
