SPOILER alert: This article discusses the fourth episode of FX’s “Clipped,” “Winning Ugly,” now streaming on Hulu.
Jacki Weaver had always wanted to play Lady Macbeth. In an interview with The Guardian, the celebrated Australian actor shared her wishes to play the role, with the caveat that, being in her 70s, she may have aged out of the part. But now, with FX’s “Clipped,” Weaver gets an opportunity close to it: She plays Shelly Sterling, the wife of a modern-day Macbeth, in the power-obsessed, narcissistic land baron Donald Sterling (Ed O’Neill).
Even so, the actor bristles at the comparison when it’s posed to her.
