“She’s under siege. I am intrigued by what happens to her, but I haven’t been told,” she told the Track. “We do know she’s got a new job and I suppose she’ll face off against Patty (Hughes, played by Glenn Close) in a courtroom sometime.”

What she says about ‘Adam’:

“Adam is gentle, not aggressive, and very honest, which I think makes Beth very attracted to him,” said Byrne, who admitted that she “could not put down the script” when it landed in her lap. Source

Thanks Bill for the info and links.

Green Lantern Rumours
Rumours are really picking up about Rose playing Carol Ferris in the upcoming Green Lantern movie.

The [Green Lantern] comic book drawing [of Carol Ferris] most closely resembles Megan Fox (but then most comic-book females resemble Megan Fox), but the grapevine tells us Australian actress Rose Byrne (Knowing, 28 Weeks Later) is hottest tipped for the role, and word is that she’s director Martin Campell’s (Casino Royale, GoldenEye) favourite too.

Rose’s Response to Emmy Nomination
While in Philadelphia, Rose received the information that she is nominated for an Emmy Award. This is her response, courtesy of Roberta:

“Hugh told me, actually. We were in the car, Hugh has an iPhone, and that’s how we got the news. I’m delighted, so happy and very shocked to think that I’d get nominated,” she said. “I’ve spoken to Glenn and KZK [Productions], who created the show, and we’re all very pleased the show did well. It’s great, because we have a very small viewership, so it’s lovely that it’s been recognized, and that will hopefully bring it more attention. The more it can get the better.” Source
