This story about Zazie Beetz and “Atlanta” first appeared in the Comedy Series issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.No Emmy-caliber new series relies as heavily on its ensemble of guest actors as “Poker Face” — and fewer still boast the caliber of talent assembled by creator Rian Johnson, star-executive-producer-director Natasha Lyonne and showrunners Lilla and Nora Zuckerman.Lyonne stars in the Peacock comedy as our woebegone hero Charlie Cale, an off-the-grid, muscle car-driving ex-casino worker who’s on the run from a mafioso (Adrien Brody) who wants her head after she learns the truth about the mysterious death of her coworker (Dascha Polanco). An enticing enough premise on its own, there’s another twist: Charlie is, inexplicably, a human lie detector — a skill that makes her a very good gambler and a rough-and-tumble vigilante detective.
That’s where our guest stars come in. Each of the series’ 10 episodes is structured around a murder-of-the — week format, akin to ‘Columbo’ and other episodic shows of yesteryear.
While Charlie bounces from major metropolises to desert-nestled one-horse towns, she encounters ne’er-do-wells while working odd jobs and catching them red-handed. From Joseph Gordon-Levitt to Stephanie Hsu, Clea DuVall to Ron Perlman, a veritable who’s-who of famous faces and character actors play the murderers, schemers and victims.
“It’s really cool to kind of come in and get to tell a whole story but in a really short amount of time. You don’t ever really get to do that,” Danielle Macdonald, who stars as a barbecue murderess in the episode “The Stall,” said.

Darrell Issa Guest Columnist Darrell Issa, Chairman of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet represents California’s 48th Congressional District. Later today on the Nashville, TN campus of Belmont University, I’ll convene a field hearing of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and the Internet.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor The desert meets the ’70s meets the Western.

Lyonne plays Charlie Cale, a casino worker with a knack for solving crimes as she goes on the run across the country. Field knew the first thing she had to do was create a look that was a departure from Lyonne’s previous series, “Russian Doll.” First rule: No black. “We wanted a different color palette, so I put together mood boards, and some of those things like the buttery brown YSL jacket made it into the series,” says Field.
