In a July 2020 interview for The Natural Aristocrat, Emery spoke about enjoying the unpredictable nature of her Ozark character Darlene Snell. "Every time I get a script, I’m surprised, which is great. It’s not like, ‘Oh, there she goes again!’ I think it’s unpredictable what a great mother she is in her own way."

Kali Reis hits Hollywood: How a champion boxer became the star of HBO's True Detective

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 7, 2022
After a spectacular triumph over self-doubt and a dramatic career change, Kali Reis, a champion boxer from Rhode Island, is now the co-star of the forthcoming season of True Detective. Reis would coproduce detective Evangeline Navarro in the film, which is set in Alaska but shot in Iceland. After a struggling youth in gritty East Providence, Reis would be sharing the screen with Oscar winner Jodie Foster, portraying detective Evangeline Navarro. Reis' debut in 'Catch the Fair One,' a semi-autobiographical drama about a boxer who enters a human trafficking ring to locate her missing sister has yet to debut, but it's already making a name for herself in Hollywood. Mike Tyson, one of her idols, appeared in a upcoming Sean Penn film titled 'Black Flies,' about New York's EMTs and includes one of her heroes.
