I really love the slang in ofmd, how every character uses slang that matches where they/the actor is from, to the point where I’m almost convinced the actors were given slang-less scripts and told to just insert whatever words they want wherever they see fit
If my English Is not completely off Vico is doing auditions for new roles
Just in case someone wants to tell me again to „not worry about OFMD season 2“. Two main actors of the show are already doing new things and one side character has already said he will not return.
We are as good as cancelled ♀️ I am so tired of it, I do not even have the energy to be angry about it
can someone please explain to me why we queers are not shouting from the rooftops about Vico Ortiz, Latinx nonbinary icon and literal drag king irl who plays Jim in our flag means death? because DAMN
The way that Vico Ortiz refers to themselves as ‘just a little fruit loop’ and ‘just a lil’ guy’ is a whole gender excellence, and on behalf of all the little fruit loops/lil’ guys i have known and loved i am so glad for this representation for them
“There are no interactions between Izzy and Jim in the first season,” says Vico. “Now Jim is stuck in Blackbeard’s or the Kraken’s ship. So, it’s like, how would that look like? And there is this sort of potential dynamic for both of them to admire their skills because they’re both incredible fighters. [They’re] both the most skilled people on both ships.”
“So now they’re in the same space, and it’s like, who is better? How can we outdo each other? And then in that process, end up actually connecting and being like, ‘hey, I respect you. And we actually might be getting along in our own weird ways. It’s like, actually, we have more in common than we thought. And actually, we are able to open up each other in that way,‘” adds Vico. “So I’m super down for that. And then as Vico, I’m like, yes, if I ever get to wear Izzy’s clothes, I would love that.”

“What’s beautiful about Jim’s arc in the revenge [sic] is that the second the beard is off, even though there were the questions and stuff on episode four, the crew treats Jim the same, and it’s something that for them, ‘it’s like, oh, hey, wow.’ So it would be interesting to explore if the beard comes back on [for season two],” says Vico, adding that they “literally have no idea what the writers are writing for a second season.”
