From Earth's Mightiest:
“The great thing about my character is she’s a very modern interpretation of a period woman; a modern mind in a period body. She’s got sass and moxie and all of that, but at the same time, she’s still a lady. Which makes her more fun to play. She’s not what you expect.”
“I think we’ve grown along with the characters. As the writers get to know you and your own strength, they sort of bring bits of that out. As you settle into the character, you find who she is and the best way of playing her. That’s definitely happened. We’re doing the third season now, and if I look at where I was this time a year ago, I’m much more self-assured when I’m in work. I know where I am, I’ve built on 26 episodes already and we’ve got that kind of confidence to come in and try different things. As a character, it moves them on, it’s an evolution. You can’t be the same person you were the first episode, that’s just boring. People in real life change, and your character should change along with that and reflect it. I think on TV you inhabit who you’re playing much more than you do in a film.”
“I’d like her to become badass in the future. It’s so much more fun to play a bitch than a nice girl. Before I auditioned or anything, I read about it and I remember saying to my mom, ‘I don’t want to be Guinevere. I don’t want to be the beautiful future queen. If I could play anyone, it would be Morgan la Fey, because she’s dark and there’s a battle going on inside her between good and evil, which is much more interesting. So, for me, the more badass and evil she becomes, the more I like it. If they can continue down the path they’re going, I’ll be happy.”
