Why Different Types of Mom

Claire is playing a character as Rachel Fleishman in the FX on Hulu series. She explained to the PEOPLE how she played different types of mom, she said

I played quite unconventional moms and I've been very happy to do that. And I think one of the last remaining taboos is a mother who appears to abandon their children. I think there are very few people who we harsh more judgely than that, I think it's important to consider why that might happen and there's probably a much more complex reason than we initially think.

Well, I really love how kind of repelling she seems initially. When I read the book, I was genuinely kind of surprised by how warped my perception initially was and how that I've got to enter these greater depths of and explore her pain. So I think playing with those different shades was a good challenge.


Cast of ‘Fleishman Is in Trouble’

Danes praise the cast and said her costar Eisenberg, 39, and all other crew members remain extraordinary. And most of my work was with Jesse, and he's just so present and dextrous and generous and a total live wire. So it was just a joy to get to play with him. The series also stars Adam Brody and Lizzy Caplan as Toby's friends, while Caplan, 40, also serves as the show's narrator.
