She has defined playing Hillary as a "turning point" in her acting career, saying: "I took a leap straight into what I wanted but also feared, and I conquered what I knew I could. If I hadn’t taken the chance and stepped onto that stage night after night, and felt that flying feeling under those bright lights, I may not be where I am today."

To prepare for her role as Kimberly, Condon read her book and watched videos of her online. Bombshell received generally favorable reviews and grossed $61.4 million at the worldwide box office.

## Personal life

In 2010, it was reported that Condon had been a victim of an unusual identity-theft scam, in which a man had impersonated her on dating websites and social media for two years, and had induced others (believing they were in communication with the real Condon) to send him money and gifts. When she became aware of the impersonator, Condon hired a private investigator and worked with the authorities to secure his arrest.
She married Jamie Harris, son of Irish actor Richard John Harris in August 2019, in San Miguel De Allende Mexico.
