Hello, everybody! My name's Isabelle Palmer, and today I'll be bringing you a very special treat - a Q&A with the cast of Katherine of Carpenchia! First, let's meet the cast.
Hey! My name's Felicity Merriman, and I play Katherine.
I'm Kirsten Larson, and I play her servant, Elsie.
Hi! I'm Caroline Abbott, and I play Celine, Katherine's best friend.
I'm Kanani Akina *flips hair* and I play Caihanna!
And my name's Rebecca Rubin, and I play the epic villain Lady Marella.
Okay! First, we'll ask some questions from our studios, and then we'll ask a few submitted by the audience. As I ask questions, cast members can feel free to jump in whenever they have an answer! My first question is: Were you happy with the part you got? Why or why not?
Um, are you freaking KIDDING ME?!?! Lady Marella is EPIC!! She's totally evil and self-serving and I LOVE it.
I was actually hoping for Katherine or Celine, but I guess there's always next time.
Do you have anything in common with your characters? If so, what?
Elsie and I are both pretty quiet on the outside, but energetic when you get to know us.
I think both Katherine and I can be pretty stubborn sometimes.
This next question is for Felicity and Rebecca. In real life, you two are actually related - fraternal twins! And you're best friends. What was it like being mortal enemies on the show? And did it test your relationship as siblings?
No, no, not at all! It was actually really fun to work with Rebecca that way.
Yeah, we hung out a lot backstage. And I totally kicked your butt in that sword fight, by the way.
Did not! Oh my god, Rebecca, you literally died. I totally won.
For the whole cast - let's talk about ships. Do you have any?
I've actually been a really huge Kaline (Celine + Katherine) shipper from the beginning. I think they'd be super cute as a couple!
I kinda ship Elsie and Caihanna.
Wait, so nobody ships Lady Marella with anyone? Wow, guys, I'm really feeling the love over here, thanks.
These next few questions are from our audience. The first one is: What was your favorite episode and why?
I loved the finale. The sword fight was really fun, and I think the lessons Katherine learned at the end are really important and valuable.
Is there going to be another season?
Maybe! But mom's currently tossing around ideas for a different series, including magic spells and monsters from another dimension. We don't know for sure if it will happen, but if it does it probably wouldn't be out for a while.
This one's for Rebecca - how did it feel to be the evil character? What sort of fun things did you get to do?
I literally got to bully my siblings without getting in trouble, which was great. And I really love being the villain - it's super fun, and Lady Marella is such a complex character.
And finally - if there is another season, what would you like to see happen with your characters?
I'd love to see Lady Marella make an epic, evil comeback. And have more screen time. For all the impact she had in the series, she literally showed up three times and only had lines in two episodes.
I would love to see more development of Caihanna's backstory. I mean, we know she was a street thief in Marigo, but not that many details about it. I'd like to see her past come back to haunt her or something.
Well, that's all the time we have! Thank you for tuning in to this Q&A, and I hope to see you in the next post!
Love,
Isabelle
With help from,
Ellie
