Deadline @ SCAD Film Festival Round-Up: 'Cruel Intentions' Cast Talks About Remaking A Classic; Plus 'Agatha All Along' & 'Somebody Somewhere'
As for remaking the classic, “we started from a place of what makes sense in terms of creating this rich world with its own social hierarchy,” explained Fisher, who was joined in the Q&A by Goodman along with cast members Hook, Burgess, Smith, Brooke Lena Johnson, John Harlan Kim, Khobe Clarke and Sara Silva. Fortunately, the Gen Z kids are alright when it comes to having to film and Zoom their tryouts; Smith — who plays the Reese Witherspoon role in the adaptation — admitted she was surprised at how quickly she and Burgess were able to vibe via their laptops, with her in Spain and him on the show’s Toronto set. Everett didn’t want to spoil what to expect from the final episodes of Somebody Somewhere, other than to say “it’s about facing fears, pushing yourself to grow and trying to embrace change, as painful as that is.” The season 3 cast includes Hill as Fred, Tim Bagley (Brad), Jennifer Mudge (Susan), Mercedes White (Tiffani), Meighan Gerachis (Irma), and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson (Iceland).
