UnReal - Season 2 - BJ Britt interview

Feb 12, 2016

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Production starts in March: How are you preparing?

B.J. BRITT:
I’ve been doing my homework by watching the first season. Honestly, before I got the role, I never knew how big the show was, but I was hooked immediately. It talks about things people don’t want to talk about, whether it’s domestic violence or mental illness or suicide. People like to sweep these things under the rug, but this show hits them head-on

How will Darius further the race-in-reality-TV discussion? What have the writers told you?


They’ve given me the outline. Quinn [Constance Zimmer] and Rachel [Shiri Appleby] are going to touch on black issues a lot, but for Darius, it’s like, “Is it their story to tell?” These [are] two white women. Will Darius stand up and be like, “This is my story to tell”? His job is to stay squeaky-clean, to be seen and not heard, so this is going to be difficult for him. He basically steps into this full, all-out war between [former Everlasting showrunner] Chet and Rachel and Quinn. … It’s going to be interesting to see [what he does] in order to clean up the mess he put himself into.
