Could Maya Rudolph be television’s new sartorial Villanelle? Or more specifically, could the character she has brought to life this summer on Loot? The comedy, which is currently airing on Apple TV+, stars Rudolph as Molly Wells, a woman who comes into an $87 billion settlement after divorcing her unfaithful tech entrepreneur husband (Severance’s Adam Scott). When she gets a call from the director of the philanthropic foundation she didn’t even know she had, Molly is soon inspired to channel her vast resources—and too much idle time—into doing something that she believes will be fulfilling, productive, and, most importantly, make for good PR.
