Fans of the popular streaming platform Netflix have been raving about the gripping series Baby Reindeer starring comedian Richard Gadd as the main character, Donny Dunn. Based on his one-man show of the same name, the 34-year-old shares his harrowing experience of being stalked for years by a woman named Martha.
The story follows Donny, a struggling comedian, as he becomes the target of Martha's obsession. What starts off as seemingly innocent and friendly encounters quickly turns into a nightmare as Martha bombards Donny with thousands of emails and voicemails, and even shows up at his workplace and home.
The seven-part series, which has earned a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes and is currently ranked number one on Netflix in the UK, has left viewers emotionally shattered. Alongside Richard, the show also features talented actors such as Jessica, Nava Mau as American therapist Teri, and Donny's love interest.
Nava, who plays the role of Teri, shared her thoughts on the script, saying, "When I read the script, it felt like the first time I was reading a character written by someone who truly knew and loved a trans woman." She added, "It was an honor to get to read the script because of Richard's vulnerability. His vulnerability shines through in the writing and it's reflected in all the characters."
If you loved Nava's performance in Baby Reindeer, you won't want to miss her in the HBO series Genera+ion. In the show, which premiered in 2021, the 31-year-old plays Ana, the aunt of one of the main characters, Greta.
Genera+ion follows a group of high school students as they navigate through the challenges of growing up, exploring their identities and sexualities, and breaking societal norms. Despite only having one season, the show has received rave reviews with an 84% average audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
Fans have praised the show for its authentic portrayal of queer youth and the struggles they face, with one viewer saying, "This is the most refreshing TV series I have ever watched. It truly reflects the experiences of queer teenagers and I love how each character gets their own perspective. The creators have done an amazing job of making every character's story flow seamlessly. I hope the show gets renewed for another season because everything about it is so relatable."
Nava, who was born in Mexico City, is not only a talented actress but also a filmmaker and director. She has produced short films such as Sam's Town, Lovebites, and Walking Hour.
For those who haven't watched Baby Reindeer and Genera+ion yet, they are both available to stream on Netflix and HBO Max, respectively. So, grab your popcorn and get ready for a thrilling and heartwarming binge-watch session.
