West Duchovny plays a young pharmaceutical salesperson named Shannon Schaeffer in Netflix's "Painkiller," which tells a fictionalized version of the story of how OxyContin helped trigger the United States' opioid crisis. Duchovny's nuanced performance has been earning her some buzz, but while West herself is fairly new to the entertainment industry, her parents most definitely are not.
West, 24, is the daughter of David Duchovny - who's starred in multiple series, including "The X-Files" and "Californication" - and Téa Leoni, who is also an actor with roles in "A League of Their Own," "Fraiser," and more. David and Leoni were married from 1997 to 2014. During their time together, they welcomed West in 1999 and a son named Kyd Miller Duchovny in 2002. Despite separating, David and Leoni seem to remain on good terms, coming together for special occasions and vacations with both of their kids.
