Post Mortem Interview
Thanks to Ivan for the heads up.
TTVJ: It was so nice to see Luke smiling in those scenes. You should let him do that more.
ML: I know! I don’t want to keep battering the poor character because I love the character and dearly love the actor. He’s such a winsome, sweet and smart guy and we keep putting his character through the wringer. In Episode 6 we did get that really wonderful moment where he’s able to look at his new abilities and have some pride in himself. It was an important moment that we touched on there where he’s like ‘it’s kind of been hard for me.’ It’s been hard for the character to find his place on the team because he loves the team and doesn’t want to be the source for discord.
He stumbled upon it and was a bit clumsy in the first season intentionally–from the writers’ point of view–to flex his muscles at the wrong time or make a romantic overture at the wrong time. He couldn’t find his footing because he wasn’t used to a relationship that was so etched in stone and had its own rituals and routines the way that Johnny and Dutch did, they were family. Now in Season 2 he’s enjoying the family and what I think is lovely is that has opened up–and you see it a little bit in Episode 6–now he has room to not just be the soldier, not just be the interloper, but he’s figuring out who is he really on this team? The first shine for him in Episode 6 is ‘maybe I’m somebody who can contribute in a unique way, which would make me feel safer in this trio, would make me feel valued,’ and is something I would like for him.
TTVJ: We got that great little scene of Hannah singing to Romwell. Has that been something you guys have wanted to work in?
ML: It’s something that when Jon Cooksey pitched it out I was tickled by it. One of the things Hannah did early on in her career was musical theater in the U.K. She was successful at that and we adore our actors so much–you’re seeing this season with Thom [Allison], Sarah [Power] and some of our other actors that we’ve had time to see what’s inherently compelling about them as people and performers, as well as what’s the fun little stuff about them. How then do we put that in the characters because we’ll enjoy it as writers, but also it’s a treat for the actors as well to bring out those other sides of themselves. That’s why we have Hannah sing this episode and we have Pree sing later on in the year. We haven’t gotten Luke singing yet, although he’s very good, and we haven’t had a full musical episode. Of course if we have enough seasons that’d be a really fun thing to explore because Lord knows the deck is stacked with actors that have a lot of musical theater background on our show.
