Under the Dome - Mackenzie Lintz Interview

Thanks to Lilja for the heads up.

Lilja: How did you get the part of Norrie Calvert-Hill?

Mackenzie Lintz: I sent an audition tape into casting for the role of Norrie from Atlanta. A few weeks later I had to send in another tape and then a few weeks after that we got a call that I had booked the part!

Lilja: The part in the TV series is quite different from the one in the book, have you read the book and if so, what is your feelings about the changes they did?

Mackenzie Lintz: Norrie Calvert in the book is definitely a lot different than the Norrie in the show. The biggest difference is the fact that she is from Chesters Mill in the book and from Los Angeles in the show. When I booked the role I began reading the book. As I got into it, I realized how different Norrie was. I made a decision to not finish the book and build Norrie Calvert-Hill into the new character that she is in the show. I, with the help of Jack Bender, Niels Arden-Oplev (the director of the pilot), and of course Stephen King, have loved creating Norrie as she is in the show.
