With ‘Lost in Space,’ Parker Posey Finds an Unlikely Home in Serial TV

Parker Posey, who plays the devious Dr. Smith in a new Netflix reboot of “Lost in Space,” at home in New York, April 16, 2018. The character is a rare television role on a résumé full of quirky indie-film protagonists, and the first honest-to-badness villain she has played in some time. (Clement Pascal/The New York Times)
