During an appearance on "Salon Talks," Emmy and Tony Award-winning actress Cherry Jones opens up about her role as defense attorney Joanna Klein in the Apple TV+ mini-series "Defending Jacob." The drama series unfolds after a boy is accused of a shocking crime in a small Massachusetts town. From the start, Jones says she felt a connection to the story. "As a theater performer, going into that courtroom was quite thrilling because it's like a theater. It's why they always say lawyers are just frustrated actors," she said.

Watch the episode to hear more about the series and why Jones is hopeful for Broadway's return. "People are going to be starved to be in a crowded room again," she said.
