With her breakout roles as Trudy Campbell on Mad Men and Annie Edison on Community, bringing a cartoon super vixen to life was a fun departure. “A lot of the work that I’ve done, everything is about reality”, she shared.
Brie said “the whole point” of the latest Masters of the Universe “is that everybody is larger than life, some people physically, this character more just in her evilness. It was so fun to work on, and the cast is great”.
As per ‘Deadline’, she shared that she appreciated the “expanse into this new world” after filming intimate indies like last year’s Together, in which she co-starred with husband Dave Franco. Brie’s Evil-Lyn portrayal comes after the character was originally voiced by Linda Gary in the 1983-’85 cartoon, based on the 1982 Mattel toys, with Meg Foster originating the role’s live-action portrayal in ‘Masters of the Universe’.
