NEW YORK, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Basic Instinct, Sliding Doors, Big Love and Terminal List actress Jeanne Tripplehorn says one of the best parts of starring in the FX drama, The Lowdown, was shooting it in her native Tulsa.
Created by writer-producer Sterlin Harjo and airing Tuesday nights on FX, the show follows Lee Raybon (Ethan Hawke), a self-professed "truthstorian" or citizen journalist obsessed with bringing down the powerful Washberg family.
Tripplehorn plays Betty Jo Washberg, whose husband Dale (Tim Blake Nelson) appears to have committed suicide after Lee publishes one of his exposes. Kyle MacLachlan plays Dale's married brother Donald, with whom Betty Jo is having an affair.
"I was on my first conversation, a call with Sterlin, I think within 10 minutes of our conversation, [he] said, 'You ready to come home?' and I said, 'I am,'" Tripplehorn, 62, told reporters in a recent virtual interview.
