Q) What was it like getting to work with director Zoe Robyn and what kind of guidance did she provide?

 

A) Zoe is awesome. She has a clear idea of what she wants to achieve in the scene, but is also super open for us as actors to explore and bring our quirks to the scenes. She is a dream to work with – a total babe who has a great sense of style.

 

Q) Jenna is so rigid, is it the job that makes her that way or is that part of her makeup from her life before death?

 

A) It’s true that Jenna totally appreciates rules. Having said that, her death and the job has definitely led her to take these qualities a step further than usual. She feels safe working within the controlled environment of the Sixth Floor…That is, until the unpredictable V (Tara Joshi) shows up and begins to shake up this carefully constructed world.

 

Q) We have seen Jenna’s death marks. Will we learn more about how Jenna began working on the Sixth Floor?

 

A) I hope so!

 

Q) What was it like filming in such a small space and what were some of the challenges?

 

A) I have to admit it was daunting at first, but when we got into the space and got to move around, it was incredible. I actually LOVED the style.

 

Q) Have you been enjoying the instant fan feedback social media provides?

 

A) TOTALLY. It’s been so much fun to get people’s instant feedback and reactions and to talk to everyone who is interested in the show. Everyone is so cool!

 

Q) Jenna at times seems like she is more than just her job, do you enjoy playing more of her strength or her vulnerability?

A) I love playing strength with the undercurrent of vulnerability so that when Jenna chooses to or is forced to reveal more about herself, it makes sense and isn’t a random moment. I’m inspired by Jenna’s strength.

 

Q) Is there anything you can tease about the next few episodes, will Jenna come to realize the handbook may not have it all?

 

A) The handbook will always have the answers! Right, Andrew?

 

Q) Will dynamics between Jenna/V/Andrew be shifting at all as we progress towards the season finale and if so in what ways?

 

A) I guess you’ll have to tune in and find out. 😉

 

Q) What have you learned and taken away from your experiences working on the show and the themes it centers around?

 

A) I’ve always been fascinated with the idea of life after death and having guides who come back and look after us. The premise of V Morgan Is Dead is a wonderful offshoot of this for me. I’ve also learned I perhaps want some more tattoos. Stat.

 

Q) What do you hope that fans take away from watching this season?

 

A) To not take life for granted and to know that there’s always second chances.
