From Better Call Saul to Apple TV+&rsquo;s buzzy sci-fi drama Pluribus, Rhea Seehorn&rsquo;s Best Actress win marks a major awards-season moment.

If you tuned into the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/2026-critics-choice-awards-red-carpet-looks-celebrities-actors-models-dresses-suits-winners-nominees" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Critics&rsquo; Choice Awards</a> last night, you likely spotted a mix of familiar Hollywood fixtures alongside a few faces still on the brink of mainstream recognition. One of the evening&rsquo;s most talked-about standouts? Rhea Seehorn, who took home the award for Best Actress in a Drama Series.
The 53-year-old actress claimed the win for her performance in Pluribus, Apple TV+&rsquo;s buzzy new drama that has quietly been gaining momentum. The sci-fi thriller, created by Vince Gilligan&mdash;the mastermind behind Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul&mdash;imagines a world overtaken by an alien virus that forces nearly the entire population into a hive-mind state of artificial happiness. Seehorn stars as Carol Sturka, one of the few who remain immune to the phenomenon and who actively works to undo its grip on humanity.
If you haven&rsquo;t had a chance to stream Pluribus yet&mdash;or missed the awards ceremony altogether&mdash;L&rsquo;OFFICIEL has everything you need to know about Seehorn as she steps firmly into the spotlight. With awards season just getting underway, expect to see much more of her in the months ahead.

Although many may not be familiar with Seehorn&rsquo;s work before Pluribus, she&rsquo;s been around the block as a creative. Born in Virginia as Deborah Rhea Seehorn, professionally just known as Rhea Seehorn, always considered herself artistic, enjoying painting and all things visual arts, inspired by her father, who did the same. Having a curiosity for theater and acting, she finally began pursuing acting after her father passed away. Since then, Seehorn hasn&rsquo;t looked back and clearly found her footing.&nbsp;
Not only an actress, but Seehorn is also a director, and made her directorial debut with an episode of Better Call Saul in 2022. Seehorn is also married to Graham Larson, a film producer known for his work on The Last Samurai, among others.&nbsp;

Before Pluribus, Seehorn also starred in Vince Gilligan&rsquo;s Better Call Saul, a prequel in the universe of Breaking Bad. Playing Kim Wexler, Saul Goodman&rsquo;s (Bob Odenkirk) love interest and colleague, this was Seehorn&rsquo;s breakout role.&nbsp;
Other projects besides Pluribus and Better Call Saul include minor voice-over roles and stints on The Twilight Zone, Franklin and Bash, Whitney, and more.

After her win at the 2026 Critics&rsquo; Choice Awards for Best Actress in a Drama Series, the competition seems to be heating up for who will win the Golden Globe for the same title, and it may be hers to take home.
