Gina Rodriguez Says It Isn't Easy To Direct 'Jane The Virgin' - Here's Why

Gina Rodriguez is stepping behind the camera tonight for an all-new Jane The Virgin!

The actress and now director, opened up about taking on a new role on the series.

“[Jane] has opened doors for opportunities to create my own shows, to make new faces, to make more Latino and Latina faces, [to put] women in front of and behind the cameras, so Jane is kind of next level,” Gina shared with ET.

That being said though, directing this series isn’t an easy task for anyone.

“Our show is very hard to do,” Gina admits. “Our show is nothing to mess with, I mean the tone is specific.”

Jennie [Snyder-Urman, showrunner] is my muse, she’s my dream-maker and I’ll never be able to repay her, but I think by my actions I’ll be able to do that.”

Gina is already set to direct more episodes of Jane — so tune into her first TONIGHT @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
