She's already beat the odds. There are many beautiful talented actresses trying to break into the business who won't get a role of any note and eventually give up. That said, she appears very selective about what roles she wants and started writing to creat better roles for herself. Her profile is rising, so maaybe she does increasingly more work in the future.

Seems she has to write her own if she wants work, good and bad.
Hopefully after the success of The OA, she will be thrown scripts. Brad Pitt will be backing a lot of her projects now I'm sure.
Joon:you're out of your tree Sam: it's not my tree

Yeah she should be getting a lot more roles nowadays.
Lose the Game!!!!!!!

Probably because she writes as well as acts.
