Since then she has starred in films such as The Double, become a mother of two, and moved to Michigan.Forester currently plays Maggie Zajac in BOSS, which kicks off its second season tonight at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Starz. We Love Soaps recently caught up with Forester to talk about the new season and how Maggie's role will evolve.
"In Season One, she appears to be the smiling, dutiful, supportive politician's wife," Forester says, catching us up on the action. "She is the wife of the young gubernatorial candidate [Ben Zajac, played by Jeff Hephner]. And you'd never know until you get near Season One that she is actually a powerhouse of her own. She's a very strong woman that by the end of Season One you discover is really calling shots and keeping him in line to win the primary."
