Actress-comedian Eliza Coupe plays a visitor from the year 2162 in the hyper-modern, sci-fi world of Hulu’s “Future Man.” In the comfort of her Brentwood living room, however, she travels back 500 years to unearth an old-world acting tradition.

Being from New England, we did not have houses like this,” Eliza Coupe says. “The whole Spanish, stucco style. We had colonial boxes, that’s what I grew up with, so I’m very drawn to this.”

Eliza Coupe credits her affinity for “old English kind of things” to her upbringing in New Hampshire, and “a very New England mother having everything old and antique-y.”
