The good news keeps coming for actress Carrie Preston. Not only is she one of the few human characters to make it from the pilot to season five of True Blood, but her third Good Wife appearance recently caused an online outpouring of love and her directorial debut -- That's What She Said -- was officially accepted into the 2012 Sundance Film Festival.
So it's no surprise that she was a bubbly ball of joy when I rang her up yesterday to exclusively talk about all three projects!
Insider.com: Congratulations on getting That's What She Said into Sundance! What was your reaction?
Carrie Preston: I got the good news a week ago, while in New York, but wasn't allowed to tell anyone. It feels like I've been riding around on a big shiny bike that I got for Christmas inside my house [laughs]. I finally get to go outside and ride it around today! But I had assumed the movie didn't get in because there's an industry myth that if you don't hear from Sundance before Thanksgiving then you probably didn't get in. So I had already cried my eyes out and let it go, then my producer called with the good news and I started screaming like I just won the Super Bowl. So many people turned their heads and looked at us while I was crying. I was jumping up and down and hugging Michael [Emerson, husband]. It was super fun.
