CAROL KANE

Diane Keaton isn’t the only actress who benefited from the film, Annie Hall. Carol Kane received her own Academy Award nomination for Best Actress after starring in the same film. She may not have won it, but this led to plenty of opportunities on both the small and big screen. Some of her most noteworthy films include The Princess Bride and Hester Street.

On Broadway, she has performed as Madame Morrible in the Wicked musical from 2005 to 2014!

In her earlier life, Kane went to HB Studio to study theatre. Then she went on to the Professional Children’s School in New York to make her professional theatre debut. Kane appeared in the production of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie which Tammy Grimes starred in 1966. Her most recent production credit comes from the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, a Netflix Original that ran from 2015 to 2020, which she played the role of Lillian Kaushtupper.
