"I'd Play Anyone on 'The Bear'": 'Riff Raff's Jennifer Coolidge Talks TV, Feeling Intimidated on Set, and Working With "Superstar" Ed Harris
The Emmy-winning star of The White Lotus talks about her heartbreaking and hilarious character, Ruth, in the crime comedy Riff Raff.

Ah, family… can't live with them, can't live without them. That's essentially what Dito Montiel's Riff Raff, a modest crime comedy featuring an all-star cast in Lewis Pullman, Ed Harris, Bill Murray, Pete Davidson, Jennifer Coolidge, and Gabrielle Union, boils down to. Written by John Pollono, who also wrote the 2017 Jake Gyllenhaal vehicle Stronger, Riff Raff tells the story of ex-criminal Vincent (Harris), who tries his best to live a normal life in a cabin in the woods with his wife, Sandy (Union), and their wise-beyond-his-years son, DJ (Miles J. Harvey). As one might suspect, this peace doesn't last too long. In fact, it's Vincent's estranged son, Rocco (Pullman), and Vincent's ex-wife, Ruth (Coolidge), who re-enter his life and wreak havoc — and try to warn him that Leftie (Murray) is pretty pissed off and wants some justice.
