![]() I’m probably gonna be two months post-partum, so I’m like, “Yeah, I’m excited about the corset. And with Season 2, I don’t really know what to expect because it’s my first time doing anything Elizabethan, and I know there’s gonna be amazing costumes and set pieces. It will be so different from what we’ve shot ‘cause the first season is contemporary, and you’re not supposed to be able to tell who’s a witch and who’s a vampire. I’ve never done anything Elizabethan before, so I’m definitely excited about delving into that world. What are you most excited about exploring, when it comes to the next season? We know that, in the second season, we’ll see Diana and Matthew hiding in time in the world of Elizabethan London, which seems like a pretty dangerous time period. What was it like to get to share scenes with Alex Kingston and Valarie Pettiford? It’s such a beautiful relationship, and even though much of what we see of their bond is over the phone, we do also get to see them interact a bit. I love that we get to see the relationship between her and her aunts, as well. She’s facing being killed by other witches and demons and vampires, and she still is like, “Yup, I’m diving in!” So, she’s pretty brave. Probably, because I feel like that pull is so strong between them. ![]() But who knows whether or not Diana would embark on that journey, if she knew before. She’s just brilliant in that character, but, yeah, she’s the mother-in-law from hell. She’s the sweetest, most warm and gentle person that you could ever imagine, but as soon as the cameras roll, the eyes change. And Lindsay Duncan plays that character so well, which is so funny. PALMER: Oh, god! Yeah, that first meeting, especially, is terrifying. That brought another element to it, which was really nice.Īt the same time, do you think Diana might have reconsidered starting down this road with Matthew, if she knew how terrifying her mother-in-law could be? So, it was just cool to know that we both are having similar experiences in our lives, and we can look at this from the point of view of people who have done amazing stuff and we’re both parents. He’s married with three kids, and I’m married with my third on the way. I think it helps, too, that we’re both parents. We were always there for each other, so it was really wonderful. It just made work fun and easy because I always had my person there to back me up, and vice versa. He really was like my brother, and we were on the same page about everything. That would be so impossible, so I’m just so glad that we became so close. You can’t be in a show like this and have to have that kind of connection with someone on screen, if you don’t like the person off screen. We always had each other’s backs and we were a real team. We spent the entire time giggling and just having a good old laugh. He is one of the funniest people I’ve ever met, in my life. What’s it like to have him as your partner in crime, throughout this experience? I love watching you and Matthew Goode together because there’s just something so fascinating and fun with the dynamic between your characters. So, that was something that I really loved about her. I think that’s actually just a beautiful lesson, in general, for people. It’s very cool because it’s only by delving into the scary stuff that she actually becomes a fully realized person, and she becomes closer to who she really is. Gosh, what a scary thing to have to jump into and navigate. But then, Matthew comes along and there’s that otherworldly connection between them. She lost her parents, and she doesn’t want to have anything to do with it. Her whole experience with being a witch and embracing her powers hasn’t been positive, so far. What she does is she dives into something that’s incredibly terrifying and confronting. ![]() ![]() I just find her so inspiring because she’s just so bright and passionate. PALMER: There’s so much that I gravitate towards, in terms of who Diana is, as a person. One of the things that I love about Diana Bishop is that she’s a smart woman who wants to be an equal to Matthew, and she’s willing to fight for that. ![]()
