The actor, who has been nominated for outstanding lead actress in the 2022 Emmys for her role as Cassie Bowden, also reflected upon how being honest with her director, Pete Chapman, about her feelings and communicating how the crew could best accommodate her, helped her immensely during filming.

“The episode that I submitted for [the Emmys] was episode five, with that beach scene,” she continued.

“My director, Pete Chapman, came up to me the day before, and he was so lovely. He’s like, “How do you want to shoot this tomorrow?” I said, “Can you just, like, put cameras around the beach, and just start rolling?” And for two hours, I just cried. Like, I screamed, I cried, I sat there, I was quiet. I lay down; I stood up. I mean, it was amazing. Who gets to have that opportunity? And I needed that for Kaley, and I needed that for Cassie, and it worked all in one.”

Moral of the story? Tough times are inevitable. But letting other people in when we need it most really does have the power to help us heal.
