Jane Seymour, who played Kathleen Cleary, the Secretary's sexually forward wife, has enjoyed a career resurgence in recent years. Her most prominent recent role is the lead in the Acorn TV Irish mystery thriller series, *Harry Wild*. Seymour stars as the titular retired English professor who constantly meddles in murder cases.

He has since become a nine-time Oscar nominee as an actor, director, and producer. His recent projects include voicing Rocket Raccoon in *Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3* (2023).
