Mickey Sumner joins host Reshma Gopaldas for an episode to celebrate 4 years and the series finale of Snowpiercer, based on Parasite director Bong Joon Ho's 2013 film, starring Chris Evans, Tilda Swinton, Jamie Bell, Ed Harris, Kang-ho Song, and Octavia Spencer. Sumner plays Bess Till, alongside co-stars Jennifer Connolly who plays Melanie Cavill, Daveed Diggs (Hamilton, Blindspotting), Alison Wright (The Americans), Lena Hall, Sean Bean (Game of Thrones), Rowan Blanchard, Sam Otto, Susan Park, Clark Gregg, and more.
Sumner shares her audition scene with Daveed Diggs that happened almost 7 years ago, when they began filming Snowpiercer. She also talks about her first season where she had just given birth to her son, and the challenges that came with being a breastfeeding mom on set.
She also dives into the love scenes on Snowpiercer and how she and many of her co-stars were thankful an intimacy coordinator was brought on. And finally, she talks about her ideal finale ending for Snowpiercer and Bess Till.
The series finale is September 22, and all four seasons of Snowpiercer are on AMC+.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
