“Working with Taylor is great. I mean, he will really pull it out of you. He is so incredibly sweet and kind. There was one moment when he sat me down, and it was such an inspiration and so flattering. He said, ‘I hope you’re as proud as your work last season as I am,’” Lanier said in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

“That really was just an acknowledgement of my work and a way for him to tell me that what I’m doing is good enough. That encouraged me to continue this path and push forward in the industry. There are moments when I’m saying a line a certain way or with a certain tone, and Taylor will give me a tiny tweak that may seem insignificant at the time but it makes such a big difference in the scene. It has led me to catch those things in the future and gives me a way to learn.”

Known for her versatility, Hannah has already demonstrated her remarkable range in a variety of roles. She first garnered attention for her dynamic portrayal of the quirky Young Dr. Hadassah in Issa Rae’s A Black Lady Sketch Show on HBO, where her comedic timing and depth of character earned praise from critics.

This well-rounded skill set makes her an exciting and multifaceted talent, one who is as comfortable in front of the camera as she is pushing her own physical limits.
