For the actors, “it was a total love fest,” says Executive Producer/Director Hiro Murai. “The first day everybody kept laughing and we couldn’t get any work done between kept getting wrapped up in stories.”
“Because it was COVID, we couldn’t really have partners or other people with us,” says Zazie Beetz, who plays Van. “We really were alone with each other. Also, we were our only lifelines.”
Because so much time had passed between Seasons Two and Three, the actors weren’t sure they could pick up where they left off.
“I was afraid that I didn’t know Alfred anymore,” says Brian Tyree Henry, who plays rapper Alfred “Paper Boi” Miles. “The inevitable answer is, he’s exactly where I’m at. I think we all grew. Our lives changed in such a way and then to be thrown back into that environment, in an environment that is foreign to us, it just created something that was incredibly magical. We had no choice but to be truthful to each other because we were in no man’s land.”
SeasonThree, Glover says, is about white people. “We really had to do research…really think not like us…but it was a lot of fun.”
While viewers will be taken aback by the first episode of the third season (the regulars don’t appear throughout much of it), they’ll see how it comes together, particularly when Paper Boi and his team are trying to understand the European way of life.
