Lea Thompson

She has delighted fans with her work on the big and small screen, from Back to the Future, Caroline in the City, to Switched at Birth, but her most challenging role might have been the 19th season of Dancing with the Stars! Lea Thompson opens up to Cheryl about why her time on DWTS felt like the Hunger Games and shares her thoughts on her partner, first-year pro Artem Chigvintsev, including revealing he was so intense that when she made creative suggestions, he would get angry, the weird thing he said about male vs. female dancers, and being surprised by the current headlines even though they didn't always get along. Plus, Lea shares all the highs and lows of her journey into acting, how she feels about her kids following in her and her hubby's showbiz footsteps, and her new show, The Chicken Sisters, premiering on Hallmark+ September 10.
