‘Famous Last Words’ Interview With Gloria Steinem Streaming Now On Netflix

Deadline · 1 day ago

Netflix has released a posthumous interview with feminist icon Gloria Steinem as part of its series "Famous Last Words," which features notable figures interviewed in advance and released after their deaths. Steinem died on 2 September 2026 in New York City, aged 92, and the episode carries particular resonance as one of her final recorded reflections on her life and legacy. The series' format matters because it allows subjects to speak candidly, away from public scrutiny, offering audiences an unusually intimate final testimony.

Steinem was interviewed by executive producer Brad Falchuk in February 2025, discussing her loves, family, tensions within the feminist movement, and her regrets, as well as deeper interests in the shared roots of sex and race caste systems and Indigenous cultures. Falchuk described her as "the steady heartbeat of a revolution" who used the session to reflect on human connection and the intersections of race, gender and peace. She joins previous interviewees Jane Goodall and the actor Eric Dane on the show, which is based on the Danish format "Det Sidste Ord" and uses remote cameras to create an intimate setting, ending with Steinem delivering a final unedited message to camera.
