'Good American Family' is a new Hulu series inspired by real headlines, centering on the controversial adoption of Natalia Grace from Ukraine in 2010. The narrative explores the tension between her adoptive family's initial belief that she was a child with dwarfism and their later claims that she was an adult posing as a child. Starring Ellen Pompeo and Mark Duplass, the series intricately navigates multiple perspectives, emphasizing the subjective nature of truth. Pompeo described her role as intense, while Duplass highlighted the challenge of accessing the 'empirical truth' in their dramatized interpretation of the story. The series invites viewers to question whose truth they believe.
I've played the same character for 20 years, and this is an intense role to play. It's intense subject matter. All of it was scary.
This is a story that we are telling. This is our interpretation of the story. We're not doing a documentary about it, telling this dramatized version.
The whole sort of core of this story is perspective. And we all watch the same thing and come away with a different version of what just happened.
