Hannah Einbinder's Hilarious Reaction to Jean Smart's Doppelganger Assistant

The cast of 'Hacks' is known for their on-screen chemistry, but it seems their off-screen dynamic is just as entertaining. Recently, Jean Smart, who plays the legendary comedian Deborah Vance, hired a new assistant. What makes this hiring so amusing is that the new employee looks remarkably similar to Hannah Einbinder, who portrays Ava Daniels, Deborah's young and often exasperated writer.

According to sources close to the show, Hannah Einbinder's initial reaction was one of disbelief, followed by uproarious laughter. She reportedly joked about Jean Smart trying to clone her, further solidifying their playful relationship. The incident has become a running gag on set, with crew members playfully mistaking the assistant for Einbinder.

This lighthearted anecdote provides a glimpse into the positive and supportive environment on the 'Hacks' set. The show, which explores the complex relationship between two female comedians from different generations, has resonated with audiences for its sharp wit and relatable characters. The real-life camaraderie between Smart and Einbinder only enhances the show's authenticity and appeal.
