It's always fun to get really specific with things like that.
It's a good entry point to start work on a character.
So for this one, it was a lot.
I mean, you always go with voice recordings of real people.
And so it was it was it was a fun journey to get there. Yeah.
How are you?
How are you doing?
I'm doing great.
I'm really excited for Love and Death.
And I want to know what draws you to these very complicated women.
Well, this show
specifically was a tone that I really wanted to explore
small town people meaning well under absurd circumstances.
There's a lot of stories that I enjoy watching
that have that you can have a lot of humor in those kinds of states,
as well as as drama and having like a real grounded story to it.
So it yeah, it was a fun
it was a fun tone to explore for us.
Absolutely.
Speaking of small towns, you've had to do many an accent in your life.
How do you perfect the Texas one?
Well, you know, she
wasn't born here, but she lived here for 10 years.
And so I thought of her as a woman
who would use it to her advantage in a way as women may as women do.
And so I kind of tried to pick more of a rhythm to it.
But it's always fun to to get really specific with things like that.
It's a good entry point to start work on a character.
So for this one, it was a lot.
I mean, you always go with voice recordings of real people.

Absolutely. Now, finally, I am a justice for Scarlet Witch person.
How do you feel about where she has been left in the Marvel universe now
and where she could go?
I feel like we can do anything with her now.
I feel like we've done so much.
So I just feel like now we can really
have a good we can really have fun.
I mean, I feel like there's a lot more humor to be had with her.
She's often the emotion of a story.
And so I'm curious to see what we can explore.
And hopefully give her some redemption.
Yes, please. Yeah. Thank you so much. Have a great day.
