Why Missy From The Wrong Missy Looks Familiar | Netflix

Описание: The new romantic comedy The Wrong Missy makes the most of a case of mistaken identity, as disaffected office worker Tim tries to turn a business retreat into a romantic getaway with the woman of his dreams, Missy. The problem is, he sends his invitation by text message and he sends it to the wrong Missy. It isn't until he boards his flight that Tim realizes he's trapped alongside a weirdo with whom he once had a disastrous blind date.

You'll obviously recognize longtime comedy star David Spade as Tim. But what about Missy? This bonkers brunette might ring a bell, even if you're not sure why. Her name is Lauren Lapkus, and you've probably encountered her on a high-profile dramedy, cracking wise in a blockbuster action movie, or leaving a lasting impression on some of TV's quirkiest series. No need for mistaken identity here this is why the wrong Missy looks familiar.

Having spent some time performing improv in New York City, Illinois-native Lapkus relocated to Los Angeles in 2010, and it wasn't long before the ambitious young performer started turning up in bit parts and commercials. Her very first TV gig found her acting with Ryan Reynolds in a sketch for Jimmy Kimmel Live. Another early bit of noteworthy national attention came with a 2011 Snickers ad, in which Lapkus appeared alongside legendary tough guy Joe Pesci and insult comedy icon Don Rickles.

More commercial work followed for Lapkus, and this period also found her sharing the screen with a singing pile of ground beef in the music video for They Might Be Giants' single "You're On Fire." Steady work finally seemed to come her way with Are You There, Chelsea?, NBC's 2012 sitcom based on Chelsea Handler's book Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea. Lapkus joined the main cast as Dee Dee, roommate of the title character played by That '70s Show's Laura Prepon. Sadly, the show was canceled after just one season, but Lauren Lapkus' big break was just ahead.
