One thing is for certain, when The Hollywood Reporter calls you one of Netflix’s “go-to writers,” things are going pretty well. Lindsey Ferrentino has been writing works seen across the New York stage for years now, and she’s just getting started. Between The Artist, The Queen of Versailles, multiple film projects, Ferrentino has now been nominated for her first Olivier Award for The Fear of 13 which recently had a critically acclaimed run at the Donmar Warehouse in London starring Academy Award winner Adrien Brody. I caught up with Ferrentino recently to chat about balancing multiple projects, gushing over Adrien Brody, and what she might wear this Sunday to the awards. Our conversation has been edited for clarity and length.
