ABCs new magic dramaDeceptionhit the ground running Sunday night.
Who is this Mystery Woman?
She is a woman in control in every way.
From my past roles, I like playing that character.
I was happy to do it again.
Thats exactly what she is she is a mastermind on every level.
She knows exactly what shes doing.
She goes through the Danish Alphabet.
Shes just this mysterious entity whos there to just wreak havoc on the poor Brothers Black.
She has an agenda, unbeknownst to them yet.
Yeah, shes a fiery one, that one.
I was offered the part.
Theres actually a fun backstory to that: I couldnt do it because of time scheduling.
Then it was offered to me one more time.
All it said was, Mystery Woman: Mysterious woman.
She is fueled by a lot of things that I assume the day-to-day person would let slide.
She remembers the little things.
In the pilot, she mentions knowing Cameron, but he clearly doesnt remember her.
Will we get more information about their history in subsequent episodes?We certainly will.
Theres a really intriguing history as well.
Theres a lot of drama involved.
There was a lot of speculation.
We theorized a lot in the hair and makeup trailer.
The only thing I can tell you is that we were wrong.
We were very, very wrong.
What does their dynamic look look moving forward?Its really interesting.
There is some confusion within their dynamic, which leads back to the past.
There are some things that are remembered and some things that are forgotten.
Though she obviously has an antagonist agenda towards him, I think theres a bit of admiration as well.
I think that that only motivates her to up her game.
She wants to prove, in some sort, that shes better than him.
We definitely see some masterclass scheming.
Im really lucky I never had to wear contacts.
Then by the end of the day, it was like no problem.
Finger in the eye and I got it.
My eye is like rolling back in my head and Im hyperventilating.
Its like the logical part of your brain is going, Dont do that.
What are you doing?
I think I do scheming villainess well, apparently, since I keep getting cast in these parts.
Theres a lot of likeness, but theres also a lot of new stuff.
Every character is an independent person.
There are new facets, obviously, to this character.
There is some likeness to draw from what Ive done previously.
I think I found my niche.
Im holding onto it.
Do you know Mystery Womans real name?You know what?
I dont know her name.
Trust me, this was a whole thing, especially during the last part of the season.
Tell me her name or Im not shooting this last scene.
Theyre like, You cant do that.
I was like, I know, but just give a little.
Im so interested in finding out her name.
I need to know.
I need to know if that reveals some further explanation.
You know what I mean?
Theres got to be something.
Theres got to be something about it, otherwise they would have told me!
Deceptionairs Sundays at 10 p.m.
