Greta Lee is known for playing offbeat characters in “Russian Doll,” “High Maintenance” and “Girls.” But she is winning raves for her restrained performance in the new movie “Past Lives.”

In the film she plays Nora, a Korean Canadian playwright who reunites with the childhood sweetheart she left behind in Seoul when her family immigrated 24 years before. The film also stars Teo Yoo as Hae Sung, the man who still wonders what might have been. For years, Lee, 40, made the most of small parts, whether performing on Broadway (briefly) or in some of TV’s most groundbreaking comedies. All that was needed for Lee to move up was the right role — in this case, her first leading role.

“I’ve played a lot of larger-than-life people,” Lee said, discussing her “Past Lives” role. “This is entirely different. I was really attracted to what that could be, and whether or not I could pull it off.”

Lee is also returning this fall as the network executive Stella Bak in the third season of “The Morning Show,” and she’s set to appear in “Problemista,” an A24 comedy written and directed by Julio Torres.
