Navratilova's New Role: Paltrow Paramour


When Martina Navratilova isn't talking tennis as an analyst for Tennis Channel, she sometimes shares her political passion on social media.

Now, the Hall of Famer is taking a high-profile step into the political arena.

Navratilova has a new role as Gwyneth Paltrow's paramour in the new Netflix series The Politican.

In a Time Magazine profile of producer Ryan Murphy, the magazine reveals former world No. 1 Navratilova will make a cameo as a horse trainer who becomes Paltrow's love interest.

"You want shocking violence, Machiavellian teens, withering one-liners, Gwyneth Paltrow having an affair with a horse trainer played by Martina Navratilova, musical numbers, Munchausen syndrome by proxy, and Jessica Lange in gold lamé?" Time reports. "That might sound like a lot. But it’s also calibrated for a mass audience—because Murphy’s sensibility has become the sensibility of the mainstream."



You can catch a glimpse of a winking Navratilova at about the 2:15 mark of the show's trailer above.

The Politician stars Ben Platt, Jessica Lange and Paltrow.
