Julia Schlaepfer played Alexandra in 1923, the woman who would go on to marry Spencer Dutton, becoming the grandmother to Kevin Costner’s iconic John Dutton III from Yellowstone. She meets a tragic fate in 1923’s season 2 ending, much to the dismay of fans who had grown to love her character and the actresses’ phenomenal chemistry with Spencer actor Brandon Sklenar. Luckily, the actress is still kicking, and she’s bound to have an exciting career after the Taylor Sheridan Western’s conclusion.

Written by Berlanti and Doran from a story the duo co-wrote with Robbie Rogers, How To Survive Without Me is set in the wake of matriarch Beverly’s passing. The De Angelis family has begun to drift, unsure how to manage their complicated, evolving lives without her guidance, but in true Beverly fashion, she found a way to keep running the show from the beyond. Should they wish to experience Beverly’s final work, the family must find the time — and make the effort — to remain connected, and be there for each other through all of life’s challenges yet to come. Schlaepfer will play Liz, a gorgeous mess who inherited her mother’s gift for storytelling, but not her discipline. Liz possesses both vulnerability and strength, but her struggles with self-worth as well as a penchant for chaos cause her to make questionable choices about her life.
