I'm going
to begin really enjoying the show so far. We just need to know
because obviously it's based on such a kind of popular novel. How much did you use
the kind of source novel as a reference point,
if it's all in on this occasion? I do want to go first
because she read the books before she started and was a fan for
I was even cast before. I even know
that it's going to be made into a series. I read the book. So definitely it has
and had a huge impact on me. And I thought Three-Body problem
series
they adapted so well. Speaking of a fan, and I thought, Wow, if they have such a great adaptation, then I might
just give my whole heart and believe it. Yeah, and I'm a philistine. I really did. I hadn't heard of it. I did not know anything about it. But once I was in, I was so in because the the book and the script the script takes the book and expands it. So the book is like,
you know, a beautiful potted plant. And then they planted it in the ground
and grew it larger to reach a wider a
udience. I'm interested to know
if you guys kind of spoke for much to help my character
to the other person's depiction of her to kind of understand what the other actor
was, was doing, what their routine was. So you can kind of try and find a nice
connection between the two performances. Well, we met on Zane's last day, on my first day, so we didn't talk about it,
but I had seen all of Xena's footage and was so inspired
and wowed by her complexity and also her demeanor was very different
than h
ow I had originally thought of. Yeah. And so I definitely
I thought it was richer. And so I definitely adapted to Xena. I almost said two years performance. I definitely adapted to Zane's performance because I did not want to mess with that. And then hopefully just,
you know, grow her into a mature woman. Gray hair. The whole thing was actually
she was carrying carrying a complete arc on her own. And I, I throw that ball
and she catches it and she did so well. Well, I did have help because they
sent me
all the scenes footage before we started. So Zane was already living in me
before we started. So when I first met Zane, I felt like I already knew her so well. I knew her mannerisms, her you know her. You know, when you see somebody acting,
you you can kind of sense their being. And so I think and she laid the groundwork
of a beautiful performance. So I wanted to do that justice as well. It was really inspiring because she added complexity to it that, you know,
I don't think anyone else
could have done. Well, you have it. Nice Bay Must be quite surreal
and quite weird in some ways. That you share this character. So you share this project in a really kind of an emotional way that you both have to
this kind of whole world. But I guess she wouldn't have spent
an awful amount of time together. Is it quite strange to be connected
by something almost intangible, if that makes sense? We're so here's the thing. We look so much alike. And that was pure fate. She rose came in and saying
like, Whoa, you look just like my my mom, when she was younger, Younger? Yes. Whoa. That that's going to help a lot. So that we had that physical similarity. But our personalities and, you know, Zane was raised on in the East. I was raised in the West. So our personalities, the way we think is quite different. I am rational. I'm emotional. I thank you for answering. I didn't think I'd reveal the lot. You can already tell. Okay. So it's in my head and out my mouth. I keep secrets, but my own feel
ings is. And Zane processes it and is quite. Would you say cerebral? Cerebral. I am actually the type that don't process
too much before I speak. What? It's just more that I more more rational. Yeah. And also, Zane
had this quality in her performance that gave, yeah, a bit of a mask when she needed it. And that was something
that was really valuable to playing. Yeah. Later on
because there's so much is thrown at her that's quite, has a lot of depth and a lot of betrayal
and I think yes, set it u
p so that that mask pops up
when there's too much feeling. Ladies and gentlemen, you are watching. Hey, you guys. Yeah, you guys, are you guys I That's what they also go. Hey, do you guys.
