Tonight is the night — the season two finale of Every Witch Way starts in just under an hour on Nickelodeon!
JJJ caught up with actress Paola Andino, who plays Emma on the show, to get the scoop on her character, what’s coming in season three and more.
Check it out below and don’t forget to watch Every Witch Way TONIGHT @ 8PM ET/PT on Nickelodeon!
JJJ: Tell us how Emma has changed since season 1, where do you think the final episode of season 2 left her character?
Paola Andino: Emma has evolved and matured so much since season 1, not just as a witch but as a teenage girl. She is a lot more responsible with her powers and less naive. She showed everyone this season that she’s not afraid to stand up for herself. That made me really happy because it was something I could relate to and I hope the audience could, as well. The final episode of season 2 left her stronger than ever. After the epic battle with her evil clone, she proved that she really will do anything to protect her loved ones, like Daniel and Andi.
JJJ: What would you love to see happen with Emma in season 3?
PA: After all of the relationship drama in the first and second season, I would love to see a more independent Emma that focuses her time on the amazing powers she has. Girl power as a teen and witch! I also think it would be so cool if she could get a puppy. How adorable would that be?

“Besides the fact that Emma is a witch, I think my favorite aspect to portray is that she loves friendship so much and she is such an honest girl,” Paola told StarryMag.com. “So, for her, keeping magic a secret is really difficult and I think that I really love that about her. I know if I had powers and I had to keep it a secret, it would be really difficult for me to keep it to myself.”
She continued, “I love that it is something that she really values is friendship. A lot of young people get to see what a real friendship is like and the qualities they should want. I think she portrays that really well.”
A few days before, Paola was spotted strolling the 3rd street promenade.
