The Carrie Diaries - Freema Agyeman Interview

Share on Reddit

The Hollywood Reporter: It's fair to say Larissa is on the opposite end of the spectrum compared to Carrie. What does she see in Carrie that makes her want to keep her around?

Freema Agyeman: Initially it's Carrie's fashion sense that attracts her, being a fashion editor. She is intrigued by Carrie and she admits to her that she collects people, so she's already open to fast-tracking people into her world. You get the impression that she would very easily drop people as quickly as she picks them up. But there is something about Carrie that makes her a keeper and she's enamored with her. It's either one of three things: It's a maternal beginning because she's seen it all, done it all, maybe she feels she wants to take her under her wing; or she recognizes herself in Carrie; or she she clicks with her as a person. It's probably a little bit of all three. We do have a mother-daughter thing going on, where Carrie looks up to Larissa and Larissa in turn wants to look after her.

THR: Carrie is keeping a secret from her New York City life, that she isn't as old as people may have thought she was. Will situations arise that will cause Larissa to view her differently?

Agyeman: It does come to light and it is addressed as the series goes on. [Executive producer] Amy B. Harris mentioned that there are these jokes about Carrie being fresh-faced, so it maybe occurs to Larissa that she does look young. But the fact that Carrie's there working in the city means that she must be old enough to do so. But it does get addressed and it goes one of two ways.
