J. Beals рассказывает о том, как в первый раз увидела Katherine Moennig...

офигенно...я прям сижу и радуюсь...

все-таки она потрясающая....

и JB и её мужа кейт тоже определенно потрясла...



....JB-"I wanna talk about first meeting...(smiling) Miss Kate. I remember we were just starting to get ready to shoot the pilot and my husband and I were in the elevator -- and we had met almost all the other cast members and we were wondering, 'my gosh, I wonder what Shane looks like?'. And Kate got in the elevator and she goes... she goes, “Hi, are you Jennifer?” And I said yeah. She goes, (deep, velvety voice) “Hi, I'm Kate.” And she shook my hand -- Yeah, (deep, velvety voice) “Hi, I'm Kate.” And, uh, we talked about the show for a little bit, but she didn't say who she played or anything. And then she got out of the elevator – she did the most... ohh, gosh, I can't even describe it – it's like -- elegant and cool and grounded. And then she gives you, like, this cool little peace sign and she goes, (deep, velvety voice) “Peace.” (Ilene chuckles, JB chuckles) To me. Uhh, and I was just like, “That is the coolest person I've ever met in my whole life.” And my husband and I just turned to each other and just both, at the same time, went, “Shane. That's Shane"...

Ilene Chaiken говорит о кастинге, о Кейт...



...About Shane: Ilene Chaiken: "Shane was very vivid for me. I knew who she was, how she felt, and I knew she would be very hard to find because there arent a lot of girls out there who had that very particular vibe and look and presence. When I saw Kate Moennig's casting tape for the first time, I went, "Oh my fucking God, there she is! Shane! It was like she was Shane manifest which was not the case for most of these other characters."
