Emmy-winner Luke Kirby returns for a poignant arc in the series finale of “Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” and dishes to us about how he feels about the way the Lenny-Midge romance ends.
renovation that opened in 2019 and turns back the clock to ’60s air travel glam is the perfect setting for this technicolor aesthetic. Kirby had only been to this space when it was a JetBlue terminal “before they did the rewind,” and says it was “amazing” to perform opposite Brosnahan in this iconic New York location. “Every set that I stepped on working on this show made my job of entering this make-believe all the more seamless,” he says.
Rachel Brosnahan as Miriam 'Midge' Maisel and Luke Kirby as Lenny Bruce in the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.At one point, it felt like this romantic all-nighter was the closest the characters would come to physical intimacy, as the Midge and Lenny will-they-won’t-they has never been conventional, because Lenny Bruce is a real-life figure and Midge Maisel, obviously, is a fictional TV character.
Sparks fly in more ways than one, and the post-Carnegie Hall show conversation in that episode serves as a wake-up call for Midge that reverberates through the final season. “I liked that it’s followed up with this harder line about the reality that those two people are exploring as individuals,” he says. “Neither of them is going to give that up to be happy in a hotel room forever, and I support what Lenny says to her. I think it's the thing she needs to hear in that moment.
