Elisha Cuthbert, known for her iconic early-career turns as Kim Bauer on '24' and Danielle in 'The Girl Next Door,' is making a major return to television with Prime Video's 'Every Year After.' In the romantic drama, she portrays Sue Florek, the mother whose presence and memory anchor a story about first love, heartbreak, family, and the ties that bind.
"I've come a long way from playing teenagers to now playing the mother," Cuthbert told this reporter in an interview via Zoom. "It feels right because I'm at an age now where I can bring authenticity to Sue's role. I have two children of my own, not quite teens yet, and this show really opened my eyes to this stage of life. Sue has an essence that is fun and joyful, and I wanted to lean into all of that."
