Toni Collette is seeing double
In Showtime's acclaimed dramedy United States of Tara, Collette stars as Tara Gregson, a woman with dissociative identity disorder whose multiple personalities regularly take over her life. It all gets even more complicated in the third season (premiering next spring), when Tara's personalities — or alters — start communicating with one another. (In this scene, the June Cleaver-channeling Alice chats up hippie-happy Shoshana.) So what does Tara make of this development? ''She thinks it's weird!'' says Collette, adding that her character — who was already on the verge of a breakdown — struggles to keep her other identities from ganging up on her. ''There's a kind of a deal that she makes with the alters this season,'' the Emmy winner teases. But as things progress, ''it's a deal that might be jeopardized.'' —Tanner Stransky
