Christina Applegate Leaned on Linda Cardellini to Film Final Dead ... (Vulture)

Christina Applegate wanted to finish filming 'Dead to Me,' and co-star Linda Cardellini helped her on set, according to the New York Times.

“I’m sure that people are going to be like, ‘I can’t get past it.’ Fine, don’t get past it then. “I just wanted the best for the person that I love and care about and have the honor to work with,” she said. “She was my champion, my warrior, my voice,” Applegate described her co-star, saying that she advocated for Applegate’s breaks or when she felt she wasn’t being heard. We’re going to do it, but we’re going to do it on my terms.’” Instrumental in supporting Applegate while on set was Cardellini. Although her condition caused her to gain 40 pounds, use a cane, struggle to walk down the stairs of her trailer, and use a wheelchair to get to set, with script and blocking changes to hide Applegate’s condition, much of the actress’s condition appears invisible onscreen. Production paused for about five months as the actress received treatment but, determined to finish, Applegate returned to set.

I am a mother again, a role I once thought was out of my realm forever. I am me again, and because of that, I'm able to accept this diagnosis. Then, I biked a little longer.

"I believe you'll be doing better in a few years than you are today." But now I know acceptance is possible with time. "I just don't know how to live in this body forever."
