I have added some new candids of Mary out and about in Los Angeles earlier this week. You can view the photos in the gallery.
In other news, Indie Wire has predicted Mary’s new film All About Nina will be a Sundance contender early next year during the annual festival. You can read more about their film predictions here.
After spending parts of my summer wondering when this was finally getting announced, it happened! Deadline has reported that Mary will be starring in a new semi-autobiographical dark comedy called “All About Nina”, opposite Oscar winner Common.
The story follows Nina Geld (Winstead), a bracingly funny and blisteringly provocative stand-up comedian whose career is taking off, but whose personal life is a near-complete disaster. To escape a difficult ex and to prepare for a prospectively life-changing audition, Nina flees to Los Angeles where she meets Rafe (Common), who challenges almost every preconception she has — including those around her own deeply troubled past.
Beau Bridges, Kate Del Castillo, Chace Crawford, Clea DuVall, Jay Mohr, Melonie Diaz, Camryn Manheim, Mindy Sterling and Angelique Cabral co-star in the film.
Mary filmed this over the summer with director Eva Vives, marking this film as her directorial debut.
They wrapped filming at the end of last month.
Mary spent this past weekend glamming it up on the red carpet in support of the third season of FX’s Fargo. While the show didn’t grab any awards this round, Mary attended the Vanity Fair/FX party on Saturday, and then attended the show with the cast and even walked the carpet with co-star Olivia Sandoval who played Winnie on the show.
Head to the gallery to check out all the stunning HQ photos, more of which from the show will be added throughout the week. And thanks to Paige for her help in adding some photos as well!

Update: Mary is NOT going to be in the film anymore. She was not announced in the cast list, but is currently filming another project which will hopefully be announced soon.
Well, here’s some exciting news! According to Project Casting, it’s been revealed that Riley’s next film, The Art of Self Defense, will be filming from September 11-October 13 in Louisville, Kentucky with Jesse Eisenberg joining the cast! Additionally, according to Casting 360, Imogen Poots is rumored to be part of the film.
Last year while Mary was still on BrainDead, she had revealed in an interview that the movie was very much in the karate world and that while she played the antagonist in Faults, it’ll be the opposite this time around.
The project between Riley and Mary was first announced in May of 2016.
You can find more info about being an extra in the film by visiting the casting links provided above.
I have added some new (but old) outtakes of Mary’s photoshoot that she did with The Wrap back in May when she was promoting season 3 of FX’s Fargo. If you missed the original interview, you can view it here. Be sure to head to the gallery to check out the new pics!
