Alex Borstein, the Emmy award-winning actress who plays Susie Myerson on the popular Amazon Prime show 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,' recently responded to the question of whether her character could get a spinoff. Here's what she had to say.
First, fans of 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' should be familiar with Susie Myerson, the feisty and fiercely loyal manager of Midge Maisel, the eponymous character of the show. Susie's rough-around-the edges personality and unique fashion sense, combined with her relentless determination to see Midge succeed, has quickly endeared her to audiences.
Her ability to hold her own in the male-dominated world of 1950's stand-up comedy adds to the character's appeal.
Given her popularity, it's no surprise that the idea of a Susie Myerson spinoff series has been thrown around by fans and media outlets alike. However, Alex Borstein, who portrays Susie with stunning nuance and charisma, recently addressed these rumors during an interview.
"I'm not against it," Borstein stated, "but there's a lot to consider.
"
She elaborated on the complexities associated with developing a successful spinoff. "It's not just about giving the audience more of a character they like," she explained, "it's about providing a new perspective that is engaging and entertaining in its own right."
Borstein also pointed out that while Susie's character is undeniably interesting, she shines the brightest when she's interacting with Midge and the rest of the ensemble cast.
