Survival and Storytelling: Rebecca Amzallag Discusses the Netflix “Little House on the Prairie” Reboot

The legacy of Laura Ingalls Wilder is getting a fresh, gritty update. Premiering July 9, 2026, on **Netflix*, the [new Little House on the Prairie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSds4Oi83Eg)* is being reimagined by creator Rebecca Sonnenshine as both a survival tale and a sprawling family drama.

Joining the ensemble as Lacey Aubert is the remarkably versatile **Rebecca Amzallag*. Described as a happily widowed outcast who operates a card room and bar on the edge of town, Lacey is a character defined by resilience — a role that Amzallag brings to life with signature depth and nuance. Having previously honed her craft in projects like Hello Darling, Antihero, and PH-1*, Amzallag’s transition into this iconic world marks a major career milestone.

I caught up with Rebecca for the Paltrocast to discuss the intensity of filming this reboot, the collaborative environment created by Sonnenshine, and her own journey from her upbringing in France and Canada to the set of a major Netflix series.
