One of the biggest late-pandemic binge watches is back for its second season. I recently spoke with Katherine Heigl, co-star and executive producer of Netflix's "Firefly Lane," on "Salon Talks." The series stars Heigl and Sarah Chalke, who play lifelong best friends Tully and Kate facing life's ups and downs together over 30 years.
The story of intermittently fractured and soul sister best friends is relatable to almost anyone who's had a lifelong friendship. Heigl said that this presenting theme felt real and vital to her. And after seeing Heigl play Tully, it's hard to imagine her as anyone else. Smart, tough and independent, Tully is in some ways her bestie Kate's social opposite, though the two support each other as real friends do.
