What Charlotte Actress Laura Linney Looks Like Today

Laura Linney's turn on "Frasier" Season 11 earned her an outstanding guest actress in a comedy series Emmy Award in 2004, which came two years after her first Emmy win for the TV movie "Wild Iris."

Linney continued to work in film after her guest turn in "Fraiser" with roles in such hits as 2004's "Kinsey" and 2007's "The Savages," which earned the performer Oscar nominations for best actress in a supporting role and best actress in a lead role, respectively. And while Linney also starred in Clint Eastwood' hit film "Sully" in 2016, she largely has found a home on television in the past two decades.

In 2008, Linney earned her third Emmy — a best actress in a miniseries or movie statuette for her role as Abigail Adams opposite Paul Giamatti's titular historical character in "John Adams." After that, she went on to star and eventually win an outstanding lead actress Emmy as the lead in "The Big C" — a comedy-drama about her character Cathy Jamison's life with cancer — which ran from 2010 to 2013.

Without question, though, Linney biggest impact on television came as Wendy Byrde — Marty Byrde's (Jason Bateman) conniving partner in crime — in Netflix's cartel money laundering drama "Ozark" from 2017 to 2022. Linney was nominated for outstanding actress in a drama series for each of the four seasons of "Ozark,", but surprisingly went home empty-handed each time.

If anything, Linney's ferocious turn in "Ozark" left her an appropriate moniker. According to IMDb, her alternate name is "Laura F***ing Linney," which seems befitting for such a force of nature.
