‘What's next?': Allison Janney on playing a ‘badass' on ‘The Diplomat,' ‘West Wing' 25 years later
'At that time, I never dreamed that it would go where it's gone,' says Allison Janney of her acting career, when she's told it has been 25 years since she won her first Emmy Award. In 2000, she won in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role as C.J. Cregg on The West Wing (she'd also win the following year in the same category, as well as two more times in 2002 and 2004 as Lead Actress). She'd later add three more trophies — two for Mom and one for Masters of Sex. 'I feel pretty damn lucky that I've been able to work as much as I have and in my career,' she says. "I love the community it creates for me. With each project, you have a whole new group of people and relationships and camaraderie. I felt so lucky to be on two shows last year working on Palm Royale and The Diplomat, both completely different. It's been an embarrassment of riches this past year." More from GoldDerby 2025 Tony Awards: Complete list of winners (updating live) 'Ran' turns 40: How a clerical error and bad blood cost Akira Kurosawa an Oscar 'Sinners' bonus feature, 'Good Night' live, Sabrina's song of the summer, 'Fantastic Four' theme, and what to stream this weekend Here, Janney talks to Gold Derby about stepping into The Diplomat in the role of Vice President Grace Penn after being a fan of its freshman season. She also offers up a few teases about the upcoming third season of the Netflix drama, when Penn will be the president after sitting POTUS, William Rayburn (Michael McKean), died unexpectedly in the season finale. SEEAllison Janney enters Emmy race as a supporting actress for 'The Diplomat' (exclusive) Gold Derby: When you first heard about Grace Penn, what were your impressions of her and how you would take her on? Allison Janney: My first conversation was with Debora Cahn [creator and executive producer], who I knew from my West Wing days. I didn't really have to think hard about it because I loved her writing, and I also was a huge fan of the first season of The Diplomat. She said, "You might be a bad guy." She was giving me a hint to what my character would be, and I just was up for any challenge she wanted to throw my way. Then when I read it, I thought, "OK, I see how you might see her as a bad guy." But I see her as a badass. I see her as someone who makes difficult decisions and knows that in the balance, some lives could be lost, but in the long run, many lives will be saved. She's a woman who is up for making the hard decisions, and that excited me about her. Also, the way she wrote my relationship with Keri Russell's character, Kate. It was so much fun to want to come and hate this woman but then end up sort of admiring her. I think Grace sees a younger version of herself in Kate. I mean, that scene where I got to dress her down and tell her, 'Well, you need to get a bra, you need to change your hair…' It was cold the way she delivered it, but she was really helping her. The dynamics between the two of us were always fun. Grace and Kate do actually form a nice bond that quickly goes off the rails as events evolve. Do you see Grace as lonely in her role as VP? I think they do [form a bond]. They could be great friends in any other situation, but in their friendship, they have to be cautious with each other and can't trust each other completely because, of course, Kate was supposed to take Grace's job. And that's always on the back burner of that possibility happening. And then you learn a lot more in season three about Grace's private life. But I would imagine for any woman at the top in that arena, it's gotta be a little lonely to be someone who's always underestimated, someone who's always second-guessed for being a woman. Grace is someone who's found a way to use that to her advantage. SEE'It just worked out really perfectly': 'The Diplomat' casting director on landing Allison Janney as the vice president You said we find out more about her in season three. Did you know a lot of this already in shooting the second season or did you just trust Debora's writing? I trusted Debora. Then she came to me at some point and said, "How would you feel about Brad Whitford playing your husband?" I was like, "Well, this just keeps getting better!' And the stuff that goes on, the brilliance between the private-facing Grace and the public-facing Grace, her relationship with her husband and that new dynamic with me being the president and he now being the first gentleman, it's kind of wild. The genius of the show is also seeing that dynamic go on between Kate and Hal [Rufus Sewell] and seeing them behind the doors. It's endlessly fascinating and fun. You've said you threw the script when you read the season two finale. Have any season three scripts caused you to throw anything across the room? I'm excited to act every page that Debora's written, but that one was just so shocking — I just did not see that coming at all! It was just a crazy moment for me. It was so wild. I didn't throw the script for season three but I loved every single page I read. You've also mentioned Hillary Clinton as an inspiration for Grace. Did you hear from her or any real politicians about the show? I didn't reach out to Hillary. I don't know her, and I didn't really need to. I just wanted to look at women who have spent their life in public service and grown up in it and what that must have been like to be a woman in those arenas and just be the only woman in the room and prove that you can be in the room. It's always having to prove yourself, and I just imagine that would be difficult. Also in West Wing, C.J. was the only woman in the room a lot of times, so I felt like I knew what that was to play. The show is so tense pretty much every scene, every moment. How is that to be on that set and do those scenes that have that kind of non-stop tension? Well, fortunately, as I like to say about this whole cast, we take our work seriously but we don't take ourselves too seriously. We had to play those scenes and play that tension and that's just fun for this cast. And then when we cut, we can laugh about something and it's not as tense. We know how to jump into that and turn it on and turn it off. Like that scene with Hal and Kate with me at the dinner [in the season two finale] and how insulting he was to Grace, and just having to listen to him and take it and not react. That's a lot of the great thing I love about Grace is how still she is and she's doesn't overreact to anything. She's learned to just not react but she'll remember. I can't say more, but there's so many fun things that are coming. You had watched the first season of the show and then came in during Season 2. As an actor, how do you prepare for that? You know, for someone who watched the show and immediately loved it, I was a little starstruck when I got on the set. I knew all these characters from watching them and loving them. And I felt a little like, "Oh my God, this is Kate and Hal!" It took me a while just to get past that because I'm just like anybody else. Definitely having [director] Alex Graves and Debora there to encourage me, I felt immediately comfortable. And also this group of actors is so incredibly lovely and welcoming and just embraced me. It also felt nice to be in that world of politics again, especially international politics. It's sexy and fun and dangerous and I love it. It's been 25 years since you won your first Emmy for C.J. That's wild. What was your vision for your career at the time and where you wanted to go? I was so thrilled to win that Emmy. That was an extraordinary night for me winning that. I was so happy to be on The West Wing. I loved that group of people. I would stop and go, "This is amazing. Just remember this." I did that so many times during that job. And it was all consuming. It was 18-hour days and we didn't have cellphones then so I lost track with people. My family was so furious with me. I spent more time with these people than I spent with my family. And I just loved what that show did for me. When it ended, I thought, "I have no idea what's going to happen now. I'm terrified." I think every actor always feels that when you finish a job, you go, "Is that it? Am I going to work again?" And then I went right into 9 to 5, the musical [on Broadway]. I thought, "Well, let's do something completely different than West Wing" so that fit that bill. I find it always a little scary because it doesn't always guarantee that you're going to get the next job or the next job. I feel pretty damn lucky that I've been able to work as much as I have in my career. I'm very grateful. And I can't see retiring anytime soon either. I just want to keep doing it and keep being challenged. I can't wait to see what's next. As Bartlett would say, "What's next?" But I can't wait for people to see season three of The Diplomat. I don't even know when it's coming out, but it's going to be fantastic.

Tony Awards biggest moments: Cynthia Erivo holds space, Nicole Scherzinger wins big
Tony Awards biggest moments: Cynthia Erivo holds space, Nicole Scherzinger wins big Show Caption Hide Caption Cynthia Erivo arrives at Tony Awards red carpet in an intricate gown Cynthia Erivo and Cole Escola pose for cameras wearing an intricate gown at the Tony Awards red carpet. NEW YORK – Broadway has fallen head over heels with a pair of helper robots. "Maybe Happy Ending," a heart-tugging romantic dramedy about androids in near-future South Korea, was the big winner at the Tony Awards June 8, taking home six prizes, including best musical, best director (Michael Arden), and best actor (Darren Criss). The fiercely original show opened to glowing reviews and meager box office last fall, but has gradually become one of the hottest tickets in New York – a rare word-of-mouth success story in the ultra-competitive Broadway landscape. This year's ceremony saw the joyous Afro-Cuban musical "Buena Vista Social Club" and Netflix prequel play "Stranger Things: The First Shadow" scoop up multiple prizes apiece. Kara Young ("Purpose"), Francis Jue ("Yellow Face") and lifetime achievement award winner Harvey Fierstein delivered some of the most stirring speeches of the night, while the Pulitzer Prize-winning "Purpose" conquered the unlikely hit "Oh, Mary!" for best play. Here are more of the biggest moments from this year's star-studded event: Tony Awards 2025 winners list: 'Maybe Happy Ending,' 'Eureka Day,' more win honors Tonys host Cynthia Erivo 'holds space' with Oprah Winfrey in opening number At the top of the telecast, Cynthia Erivo playfully shot down a bevy of suggestions about how to add pizzazz to her opening number. (Blast George Clooney out of a human cannon? Hard pass.) The "Color Purple" powerhouse then ran into Winfrey in the wings, asking her, "What do you do when everyone is telling you what you need to do?" Winfrey dispensed her wisdom, saying, "Forget about them, babe. The only thing you need to do is be yourself." Grinning, Erivo proceeded to grab Winfrey's finger – recreating her viral "holding space" meme with "Wicked" co-star Ariana Grande from last fall. Watch: Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo sing 'For Good' in first 'Wicked: For Good' trailer "There's no place like home," Erivo said onstage, in one of her many nods to "Wicked" and "The Wizard of Oz" throughout the night. "And Broadway has always been mine." Sarah Snook says 'Succession' group chat has been going wild since her Tony win Sarah Snook, who's best known to HBO fans as Shiv Roy on "Succession," earned her first Tony Award for best leading actress in a play for "The Picture of Dorian Gray," giving a marathon performance as 26 different characters in the one-person show. Several "Succession" alums have graced Broadway this past year, including Jeremy Strong ("The Enemy of the People"), Kieran Culkin ("Glengarry Glen Ross"), Juliana Canfield ("Stereophonic"), and Molly Griggs ("John Proctor is the Villain"). "We haven't done much flaunting of awards in photos, but it's such a special group chat," Snook told reporters backstage. "It's a really special group of people and we're all theater nerds deep down." Last spring, Cate Blanchett's production company Dirty Films acquired movie rights to bring "Dorian Gray" to the screen. Snook said that she hasn't yet heard anything about the potential adaptation, although she would be open to reprising her roles. "I don't know how this gets turned into a film," Snook admitted. "It's a particularly complex piece to do as a theater show. Dramaturgically, it holds up, and I think Kip would be an incredible director for that project. And if I got to be a part of that, that would be a dream come true." Nicole Scherzinger, Audra McDonald, 'Hamilton' reunion hit Tony performance highs To celebrate the 10th anniversary of "Hamilton," Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr. and the original Broadway cast took the stage for an electrifying medley of the most beloved songs from the groundbreaking hip-hop musical, including "My Shot," "The Schuyler Sisters," "You'll Be Back" and "The Room Where It Happens." Audra McDonald also brought the audience to its feet with her ferociously emotional rendition of "Rose's Turn" from "Gypsy." 'Hamilton' reunion! Watch original stars perform 'Satisfied' at film screening Earlier in the night, "Sunset Boulevard" leading lady Nicole Scherzinger took our breath away with a stunning rendition of "As If We Never Said Goodbye," introduced by the show's original Broadway star, Glenn Close. 'Sunset Boulevard' review: Nicole Scherzinger is transcendent in bold new revival Scherzinger went on to win the Tony for best leading actress in a musical, in what was considered a neck-in-neck race with McDonald. 'Maybe Happy Ending' star Darren Criss dedicates Tony Award to his wife and kids In one of the closest races of the night, Criss took home best leading actor in a musical for "Maybe Happy Ending," trouncing formidable contenders Jonathan Groff ("Just in Time") and Tom Francis ("Sunset Boulevard"). The former "Glee" star got choked up as he thanked his wife, Mia, for helping raise their two young children amid his demanding Broadway schedule. "The real hero about this, for this remarkable journey, is my wife, Mia, who took a massive swing on allowing me to do this and to allow this crazy upheaval in our life to make this logistically possible," Criss said. More: Darren Criss on why playing a robot in 'Maybe Happy Ending' makes him want to cry "And for bearing the brunt of raising two tiny friends under 3 so that I could raise a singing robot at the Belasco Theatre eight times a week. Mia, you're the very pedestal that upholds the shiny, spinny bit in our lives, and your love and your support for me and our beautiful children, combined with the miracle of working on something as magical as 'Maybe Happy Ending' has been and will always be, award enough." Cole Escola sprints onstage, thanks Grindr hookup in Tony speech Escola, the deranged genius behind "Oh, Mary!", won best leading actor in a play for their inspired turn as first lady Mary Todd Lincoln. Channeling Bernadette Peters in an off-the-shoulder Wiederhoeft gown, Escola feverishly sprinted to the stage, where they thanked fellow best actor nominees, including George Clooney and Daniel Dae Kim. "It's an honor to be in your company," Escola said. "It's been a sincere pleasure spending time with you over warm salads at all these (Tony) luncheons." They continued to thank their mom and their "whole gang" of friends. "Oh, and Tebow from Grindr and Amy Sedaris, who always reminds me how important she is to me. And she is." Written by Escola, "Oh, Mary!" imagines Lincoln as an alcoholic wannabe cabaret star. Asked by reporters whether they would consider an Eleanor Roosevelt comedy next, Escola joked that she is "played out. It would have to be something original, not another historical figure."
