TVLINE | How do you and Anna Diop get on? The audience kind of wants that annoying sister.

To keep that up for the entire season is a big, big, big challenge that I had, but it was one of the funnest challenges because it really allowed me to be dramatic and to really bring back that funny villain who is annoying to her sister, but the audience got. To be able to be able to play that is a challenge because you have to make sure that your posture is a certain way, your shoulders sit a certain way, your eyes are in a certain position…. Some of my favorite moments with Blackfire this season are when she’s not talking, how you can still feel her presence whenever she’s there. What I’m loving more than anything about this character is we are completely shattering this idea of a “tomboy” - like, what does that even mean anymore? A woman can be strong and hard but also empathetic and gentle and soft, and she can speak without speaking and still control the room. Her hairstyle’s going to change every single episode, and you’re going to see her in the bad-ass supersuit that she’s got…. You’re going to see her in leathers, and fringes, but you’re also going to see her in heels and boots. One of the big things about Blackfire is she is so androgynous.
