Post Mortem Interview

Did you always know that Aslaug’s days were numbered?

I thought that she’d be gone sometime in the second season, like when I first signed on; I didn’t think she’d last as long as she did. Once the boys were going to be older I thought it would be interesting to see what Michael would do with the older mother. Obviously at the beginning of season four when she went to see the Seer and he told her a woman will rule Kattegat, I said, “OK, I can’t imagine that would be Aslaug.”

When did you officially find out?

One of the producers told me — he approached me on set one day and asked me to take a little walk. I made a joke, “Why, am I getting killed?” and he just kind of looked at me and didn’t say anything. I went, “Oh, wow — I’m getting killed!” So we went for a walk and he told me I was going to be gone. We were in the middle of filming episode nine or 10 at the time. I had a little bit of notice; it was right before we went on hiatus in the midst of season four. It’s hard to remember now because this was all over a year ago now.

You’ve now joined The Mist, what was it about that role that spoke to you?

I had only read the pilot when I signed on, but it’s a wonderful first season. There are some women’s issues that we talk about… repressed women’s sexuality, victim blaming of sexual abuse victims… just some things that I thought were really great to explore, especially on something you don’t expect it in. It’s Stephen King and horror so you think there’s going to be lots of action and scary stuff, but we’re dealing with some really topical themes. Right around when I was reading for it and going through screen tests and stuff, the whole Stanford swimmer rape case was out. It really spoke to me thematically and it was interesting that you think the show is going to be about this mist, but really it’s about the relationships of all these people in a small town.
