One pleasure of working on a trilogy is watching characters warp and grow over time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love seeing a story evolve over several books and watching characters develop.
As a writer, I have this compulsion to take characters who appear formidable and bombard them with adversity until they crumble. What's interesting is watching them rise again, and seeing how they've changed and grown, if indeed they have.
The great thing about a trilogy is that it feels like you've got a beginning, a middle, and an end.
One reason I find all this character growth and narrative swerving so exhilarating is because I never got to do it when I wrote for TV. Our characters needed to remain consistent from week to week.
During my career I've enjoyed re-invigorating and contextualizing classic characters that are relatable to contemporary audiences.
I am a big proponent of character arcs that show us how people change over time.
Having done a lot of theater, I'm used to sustaining characters over long periods of time.
It suits me to be in a series that takes ages to film.
This is what I always wanted to do in my entire life, so I am not going to sit here and complain that it is so terrible to be in successful movies, because it becomes a trilogy!
It's sensational to be a part of a series that takes on a life of its own.
