Character

Mallory Hanson

Mallory Hanson in Grace and Frankie (2015), played by Brooklyn Decker.

Mallory is Grace's younger daughter, a wife and mother trying to hold her own household together while her parents' marriage implodes around her. Warm, conflict-averse, and eager to keep the peace, she's the sibling who worries out loud while her sharper sister rolls her eyes.

Brooklyn Decker plays Mallory's niceness as a real trait rather than a punchline, which gives the show a grounded counterweight to all its acid wit. She's the one who says the sincere thing at dinner, and the writing lets her softness read as strength, not naivety.
