Promo & Interview
DEADLINE: Why did you decide that this — Season 3, Episode 3 — was the time for Jane to finally have sex?
URMAN: I knew it would be this year I knew it would be with Michael after he had recovered. There were no more stories we needed to tell, we played the Jane the Virgin card in its different iterations, pregnant virgin, virgin with a baby, married virgin, married virgin with a one-year son. We’d mined all the material that stems from that and felt that the story would stall if we didn’t move forward.
DEADLINE: Why did you decide to do use animation for the big second sex scene?
URMAN: We wanted to do something with magical realism, one of the things that make the show particularly specific. We are not competing with HBO or Netflix and we’re not going to show the real physicality of sex. I wanted Jane to have a private moment and have it be more about the feeling, what her expectations were.
