Megan Stalter has lost almost every piece of jewelry she’s ever owned.
But she’s determined to flip the script on the Scorpio signet ring that she wore for a recent interview with The New York Times. Ms. Stalter’s girlfriend wears the another ring just like it.
Ms. Stalter found the matching rings at a store in Hollywood that sells jewelry, greeting cards and crystals. She was looking for a piece she could wear to pay homage to her girlfriend while filming “Too Much,” a forthcoming Netflix series by Lena Dunham, in which Ms. Stalter has a starring role.
Ms. Stalter also stars as the titular, leopard-coat-wearing character in the recently released film “Cora Bora.” And she has stolen many scenes in her supporting role on “Hacks,” the comedy series, over its three seasons on Max.
The 33-year-old actress, in an interview that has been edited and condensed, talked about the ring that she has refused to lose, and why it is worth holding onto.
Tell me about the jewelry you’re wearing.
It’s a Scorpio ring that matches a ring I gave to my girlfriend, who is a Scorpio. It was a secret sign to show her that I was thinking of her in all of the scenes in the last show I did.
Did you wear it while you were filming?
I made it a really big deal on set for me to be able to wear the ring. I said, “I really need my character to wear this ring; it’s really important to me that the character has this ring because someone in the character’s life must have given it to her.”
