Edie Falco
Edie Falco rose to fame playing the wife of a mob boss on the hit HBO show “The Sopranos.” After several guest appearances on other shows, Falco landed her next major role as the pill popping ER nurse on Showtime’s Nurse Jackie. Falco revealed how her own alcohol addiction years ago is helping with her latest role: “I get it, I know exactly why he’s doing it because you’re addicted and it’s completely irrational behavior and you lie and you cheat and you do whatever you need to do to get what you need. For the normal person it’s impossible to understand. So it’s helped my performance.”
