While Amanda is certainly nowhere near retiring from Hollywood life, she has previously admitted that her home in the Catskills gives her the perfect space to briefly do so whenever she needs to. 

Amanda has become a Hollywood A-lister 

Amanda is flying high with her career currently and has astounded fans with her jaw-dropping performance as Elizabeth Holmes in Hulu's The Dropout mini series.

She recently opened up about the challenge of playing the disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes in an interview with Entertainment Weekly

Amanda made the shocking revelation that she didn't meet the Silicon Valley con, and in a way she was glad it worked out that way.

She even said she was relieved by the way it turned out, saying: "At the end of the day, I'm glad I didn't have the opportunity because it would've been a hard decision to make and I'm glad it was made for me."
