What can fans expect from your character, Allison, in “The Umbrella Academy” Season 3?
Allison is really surprising this season. We’re going to see a very different side of her that we haven’t seen before, which, as an actor, was so fun to play because we’ve gotten to know Allison really well over the past two seasons and this season’s adding a layer to her that we’ve never really seen before, which is extremely exciting and was thrilling and really fun to dive into. Also, we’ve got a whole new family of superheroes that is bringing quite the drama to the Umbrella family. The showdown between the Umbrellas and the Sparrows is really fun and really entertaining and this might be our best season yet. It’s really exciting, and there’s so much going on.
Are you hoping “The Umbrella Academy” continues? Is Allison a character you’d like to keep playing?
Oh yeah. It’s been such a joy to be on this journey with Steve [Blackman], our showrunner, and Netflix and UCP and this cast. The fans of the show are so incredible and so loyal and I’ve truly enjoyed getting to play Allison. I owe so much to her and this part because I’d never set foot in front of a camera before, until day one of “Umbrella Academy.” This is the thing that introduced me into TV and film and made me fall in love with it. I’ve learned so much and I’ve grown so much as a person, but also as an actor and I’m so grateful for it. As long as the fans will have us, we’re all down for more Umbrella madness.
