Catherine O’Hara, the Emmy-winning chameleon of character acting, continues to enchant audiences with her inimitable blend of eccentricity and precision. From her immortal “KEVIN!” in Home Alone to the deliciously affected Moira Rose in Schitt’s Creek, O’Hara has mastered the art of making outlandish characters deeply, unforgettably human. Her gift lies in finding the vulnerable heart beneath the theatrical flourish — a talent that has made her one of Hollywood’s most cherished performers.
O’Hara has returned to one of her most beloved roles — reprising Delia Deetz in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival in August 2024. The film marks a poignant full-circle moment, as it was on the original 1988 set where she met her husband, production designer Bo Welch, with whom she recently graced the Venice red carpet in Oscar de la Renta. With her upcoming role in HBO’s The Last of Us, O’Hara continues to prove that at 70, she’s doing some of her most compelling work yet— each performance a masterclass in finding the extraordinary in the eccentric.
