Here’s why The Brave is the show that Anne Heche is most proud of

-

Actor Anne Heche says she was surprised when she first read the script for the American drama series, The Brave. “I read the first couple of pages and went, ‘Wait, what?’ We can have an agency on the ground in Washington DC communicat­ing 5000 miles away from our troops telling them who to shoot and what the scope of danger is? That’s when I knew I was in,” stuff.co.nz quoted her as saying.

The Brave is about both the complex world of America’s military heroes, executing dangerous missions behind enemy lines, and the team in the Defence Intelligen­ce Agency who work alongside them using state-of-the-art technology to provide intelligen­ce and support.

The 48-year-old Emmynomina­ted actor, who plays Patricia Campbell, deputy director of the Defence Intelligen­ce Agency in the series, said, “It’s probably the show that I’ve been most proud of in my whole life because it’s about men and women who sacrifice their lives every single day for the lives of others and the safety not only of our country but the world.

“I personally did not know how the Special Forces worked and that fascinated me with this show. It’s really about two teams of people: one in Washington DC, in the intelligen­ce department, and the other team on the ground on the front lines all around the world.”

Heche’s credits are diverse, from Donnie Brasco, Six Days, Seven Nights, and Men In Trees.
