By the time she was cast as matriarch Esme Cullen, Reaser was already recognisable to TV fans as Grey's Anatomy's amnesiac "Ava." For the most part, her roles since then have returned her to the small screen. She had a repeating guest role on CBS's The Good Wife, as well as appearing on the buzzy series True Detective in 2014. Most recently, she's starring in the new Netflix horror series The Haunting of Hill House as the adult version of Shirley Crain.
