Adefope has long worked in groups with alternative comedians like Cat Cohen, Patti Harrison, and Mitra Jouhari, all of whom are alumni of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, but she prefers the relatively laid-back London comedy scene to the often tense stand-up worlds of LA and New York. Adefope has focused more on filmmaking and less on stand-up in recent years, she tells me, and that works to her advantage: Her precise, almost scientific comedic timing in The Franchise makes her a natural fit in the Armando Iannucci universe. Dag steals the show in her supporting role, which I see as a sort of teaser for Adefope’s next leading role if her career thus far is any indication, she’ll be coming in with equal parts wit and intellect.
It didn't take long for Adefope and I's conversation to turn to two of our shared passions: Real Housewives and fashion. (Adefope is a Real Housewives of Salt Lake City watcher, while I'm more into New York.) After we'd finished chatting about Kyle Richards and sharing our dream of going to SUR even though neither of us had watched Vanderpump Rules I asked Adefope about the brands she'd been particularly into wearing lately and was delighted to discover that she'd actually kept a running list in the Notes app on her phone. A quick look at the list revealed
Simone Rocha, Marni, Molly Goddard, and Jacquemus, as well as cult British brands like Studio Nicholson.
“I think I brought my own cynicism that people were treated so differently on set,” Adefope says of her Franchise character: “I like Dag to be like, ‘I’m going to treat everyone the same,’ that’s the way it should be.” Like many in Hollywood, Adefope has seen the industry-wide downturn since the successful WGA and SAG strike last year, and she’s aware of the ways the business has changed and (perhaps more importantly) the ways it hasn’t. “Bad behavior can be curbed a little bit, but the hierarchy is so entrenched that trying to intervene doesn’t always work,” Adefope says over coffee. “I hope for representation, but AI just makes me feel hopeless.” (Just before Adefope and I met, California governor Gavin Newsom vetoed an AI safety bill that had the support of many in the entertainment world, including more Hollywood labor icons than Jane Fonda.)
