“It’s so nice to see that the cast, they’ve all become such good friends. You don’t know if that’s gonna happen, they might all hate each other, but in this case they just really bonded, like immediately.”

I think once I’d met the characters in the comics and in the scripts, I had such high hopes and real great expectations of who the actors would be to play them, and we wanted to find a cast that was truly diverse, that represented the characters authentically. The spirit of the piece is all about making people who don’t feel seen, feel seen. So in terms of actors embodying the roles, you know, a character like Elle, there’s only one way you could cast that character. And that extends across all of the parts in that we found someone who has an essence of that character in them.

I think it’s very powerful what you put on Twitter the other day actually, where you said “apparently some people on here know my sexuality better than I do”, because I just don’t think that anyone on this planet has a right to anyone’s identity on any level. I think that was such a powerful statement to put out there.
