. Sylvia is introduced in the first episode, swanning into a PTA meeting wearing a beautiful coat and aiming a cutting barb at another mom. That initial impression -- of the WASP in a designer wardrobe, of the rich bitch, for lack of a better troupe -- proves far less shaded than who Sylvia really is. She's sharp and thoughtful and a true friend in Grace's time of need.
"While the clothing would have been fun -- and I love clothing -- it wouldn't have been enough to want to play the part. What I was interested in is all of these things are going on," Rabe tells ET."All those delicious things about who she is on the Upper East Side -- and I do think there's something about her where she's at the center of a lot of the juice.
Rabe had not known Kidman, with whom she shares most of her scenes, before filming began."But we were quite fast friends, and I felt a real kindred spirit with her immediately," she says."It was really wonderful to be in process with her. Because of how present she is, how curious she is, everything else disappears when you are in a scene with an actor like that."
"Those are the moments that we're chasing. When everything else falls away and all it is is who you're sitting across the table from and what's happening between these two people and how that story unfolds and can surprise you and should surprise you," Rabe says."[Nicole] is one of those women who comes into your life and changes it. Susanna, too, they're two women that I carry with me in my heart now.
"Listen, I've been in the Ryan Murphy world," she adds as a disclaimer,"where you've played a character who dies, and you think, 'I'll never get to play that character again.' Then sometimes you do. So, all bets are off."
Ok now I'm excited.
