The cast of Legacies step out for the 2020 SCAD aTVfest on Saturday (February 29) in Atlanta, Ga.
Joining the stars of the series – Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, Quincy Fouse, Aria Shahghasemi, Kaylee Bryant, Peyton Alex Smith, and Chris Lee – were the show’s creator and EP Julie Plec, as well as executice producer Brett Matthews.
At the festival, Julie opened up about one of the show’s upcoming episodes, which is set in film noir.
“Legacies is doing its first and maybe only film noir episode, which is born out of the brilliant mind of [executive producer] Brett Matthews, who actually studied noir in film school and is a huge fan of the genre and knows it intimately,” she told EW. “We just wanted to dive into a fantasy world we hadn’t done before.”
“It was just a genre that stuck with me for a long time,” Brett added. “Actually, we had the episode broken and we didn’t know conceptually what we wanted the world to be. There were a lot of ideas on the table. There was Western, there was steampunk, there was Victorian. Film noir just became the perfect storm of producible and fit the tone of the season and that particular episode.”
The Legacies film noir episode, titled, “There’s a Place Where the Lost Things Go,” will air on March 12th on The CW!
The ladies of Legacies look so fierce in this pic from their signing event during 2019 Comic-Con over the weekend in San Diego, Calif.
Danielle Rose Russell, Jenny Boyd, and Kaylee Bryant joined co-stars Matt Davis, Aria Shahghasemi, Quincy Fouse and Peyton Alex Smith for the meet and greet with their fans after a panel moderated by Candice King.
In an interview with TVLine, Jenny, Danielle and Kaylee all opened up about what’s ahead for their characters in season two.
For Lizzie and Josie, Kaylee and Jenny opened up about the merge.
“I really don’t think Josie’s in a place where she would fight back,” Kaylee says. “She’d let her win.” Jenny, though, is convinced that it would be a close battle.
Danielle also chatted about a world without Hope: “It’s definitely a change of pace…it gives these guys a little bit of freedom to explore different situations and dynamics now, because it’s justified. Last year, certain things wouldn’t have been justified, but now we get to experiment a little bit — until Hope is remembered and all hell breaks loose.”
