It’s hard to imagine an actor better suited to their name than Elizabeth Marvel. She’s been astonishing audiences since the early ’90s, establishing herself as a commanding presence in New York’s theater scene before making her way to television and film roles like House Of Cards and True Grit, often giving them a boost of gravitas just by showing up. But Elizabeth Marvel never just “shows up.” Trained at Juilliard and Interlochen, Marvel has the uncanny ability to disappear completely into her characters. It’s almost hard to believe that Homeland’s imposing, headstrong President Keane and The Meyerowitz Stories’ meek, soft-spoken Jean are played by the same person. But that’s the power of Elizabeth Marvel; she’s a superhero.


Speaking of superheroes, it took over a decade, but Marvel Studios finally got wise and welcomed her into their Cinematic Universe—a move Marvel herself jokes was “about time.” This October, she can be seen in Hulu’s Helstrom, a television adaptation of one of the darker stories to come out of the house that Stan Lee built. She’ll star as Victoria Helstrom—also known ominously as Mother—one of her meatiest roles yet that has her (literally) climbing the walls. Of course, Marvel relishes the opportunity to show audiences a new side of herself and, from the sound of it, she’s just getting started. In anticipation of Helstrom’s premiere, The A.V. Club chatted with the actor about her marvelous career. She tells us why her move to the MCU felt like an inevitability, shares the best thing about working with the Coens, recounts her harrowing run in Julius Caesar in Central Park, and gushes about working alongside her husband—and fellow character actor—Bill Camp.
