The actress playing Kim’s mom in Better Call Saul season 6 is Beth Hoyt. Known for Inside Amy Schumer, Dead To Me and her work with YouTube channel The Key of Awesome, Hoyt also voiced Pepper Potts in Marvel’s What If…? animated TV show. The actress first portrayed Kim’s unnamed mother in the initial Better Call Saul season 5 flashback, but that scene took place at night while the character yelled lines from the driver’s seat of her car. The new “Axe & Grind” flashback not only gives Hoyt significantly more to work with, but liberates her from a shadowy car seat and out into full view. It’s a creative shift that definitely pays off…
Why Better Call Saul’s Kim’s Mom Casting Is So Perfect
As Beth Hoyt steps into the spotlight, her ridiculously close resemblance to Better Call Saul‘s Kim becomes clear. The physical similarity is so uncanny, you almost double-take to check whether Rhea Seehorn is playing her own character’s mother. Hoyt has clearly been cast because of her facial closeness to Kim, while her hair and makeup deliberately accentuates the likeness, but the casting’s genius goes beyond just Beth Hoyt and Rhea Seehorn looking like sisters. Kim’s mom’s mannerisms and vocal inflections both hide echoes of future Kim. When Kim’s mother asks, “Really? What is going on with you?” the line sounds exactly how Kim might react when Jimmy starts acting strangely. When Hoyt utters, “I’d say I’m disappointed but that doesn’t even begin to cover it,” the delivery falls eerily close to a put-down Kim could’ve thrown toward Howard Hamlin.
Better Call Saul season 6’s flashback sequence shockingly proves Kim’s criminal streak began way before she encountered Jimmy McGill, and by pulling scams in the present day, she’s actually copying behaviors picked up from her mother. Watching the previous flashback from season 5, Kim and her mother couldn’t appear less alike. The purpose of season 6’s 1980s visit is to flip the script and reveal Kim actually followed in her mom’s footsteps. That groundbreaking twist is made all the more effective by the physical resemblance between characters, with Beth Hoyt’s ability to pass for Rhea Seehorn at a glance visually representing how similar both characters truly are.
Better Call Saul continues Monday on AMC.
