On Monday, May 20, 2024, The Drew Barrymore Show welcomes Hannah Waddingham, the British actress, singer, and television presenter known for her roles in Ted Lasso and Game of Thrones. Waddingham will be answering a round of questions in a balloon-pop quiz and joining Drew Barrymore and Ross Mathews to cover the latest headlines.
Waddingham, a graduate of the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts, has a four-octave vocal range and made her West End debut in 1998. She has since built an impressive career, receiving three Olivier Award nominations for her work and winning the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series in 2021 for her role in Ted Lasso. Waddingham has also appeared in several films, including Les Misérables, Winter Ridge, and The Hustle.
In addition to her acting career, Waddingham is a fluent French and Italian speaker and has expressed her love for languages. She is co-starring in the action-comedy film The Fall Guy, alongside Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, and will be joining the cast of the eighth Mission: Impossible film.
The show will also feature a cooking segment with Dina Lombardi, a travel agent who will be showing Barrymore how to make a bacon-and-veggie frittata.
