Troian Bellisario Opens Up About Directing 'Pretty Little Liars': 'It Was Such A Joy'
There’s only five more days until an all-new Pretty Little Liars — and it’s the episode that Troian Bellisario directed!
The actress, who plays Spencer on the show, headed behind the camera and got the chance to direct two of her favorites, Julian Morris and Lucy Hale.
“I got to work with him as a director [and] I got to direct a scene between Spencer and Wren and it was such a joy,” Troian shared in a recent interview. “It was full circle, because so much of the Spencer story in the pilot was with Wren. I have such a blast with Julian.”
She adds, “I feel like we do have really good chemistry, it’s just easy because we find each other very funny and we really do love each other, so it was a total blast to get to work with him as a director as well as an actor. So you can definitely count on some ‘Wrencer’ time, as the fans call it.”
Troian also dished about working with Lucy one on one for Aria’s storyline.
“I had a more character-driven episode, which was really fun because I got to work with the girls … and take Aria in a direction that was really fun for both of us,” she adds.
“Lucy’s kind of always been the romantic heart of the girls. We all have our romances, but she’s truly the love story, her and Ezra, so to get to take her character in a different direction, away from the romance, was a total joy for both of us because I know she’s wanted that for a long time, so she really trusted me and let me play with her, so I think it’s going to turn out great.”
