New RACHELLE LEFEVRE interview

Rachelle Lefevre is on screen for all the right reasons. Whether digging into the core and consequence of human trauma, honoring her ancestors, or tearing through the jungle with a machete and a med kit, the flaming-haired heavy hitter mines the medium for all it’s worth. As the seductive, damaged, malicious first wife of Paul Giamatti’s Barney Panofsky in Barney’s Version (2010), Lefevre channeled a perverse spitefulness as she emotionally gutted her costar. She called the Feds on Kevin Spacey’s Jack Abramoff as a scorned girlfriend in Casino Jack (2010), and sang in Yiddish in Fugitive Pieces (2007), a beautiful and little known ode to survivors of the Holocaust, starring Stephen Dillane. Now co-starring on “Off the Map,” the new ABC series that’s equal parts medical drama and bushwhacking, cliff-diving tropical adventure, Lefevre plays Dr. Ryan Clark, a born-and-bred traveler who’s as at home in an operating room as she is in a makeshift lean-to. Set in a remote town in South America — and shot in Hawaii — the show follows a group of young doctors who have pulled up stakes in an attempt to escape their respective pasts.
