Natasha Rothwell isn’t afraid to get real. The actor, writer, and producer has been creating nuanced, relatable characters for years, from Insecure to The White Lotus, and her new Hulu series How to Die Alone offers another deep dive into human emotion and comedy. Rothwell sits down with Kyle Meredith to discuss the show’s development, its themes of loneliness, and the cathartic power of karaoke. Listen now.
How to Die Alone follows the story of Melissa, a JFK Airport employee who’s never been in love and has forgotten how to dream — until a brush with death sets her on a life-changing journey. Rothwell, who both stars in and co-created the series, wanted to explore the distinction between loneliness and being alone, themes that hit close to home for her. “I think being preoccupied with romantic love prevents us from seeing platonic love and familial love and valuing it as much,” she explains. “I felt like that was a story worth telling.”
In addition to How to Die Alone, Rothwell will return to The White Lotus for its third season, reprising her role as Belinda. While she remained tight-lipped about the new season’s details, she teased that it would “blow your socks off.”
