'Council of Dads' star Sarah Wayne Callies (SarahWCallies) opens up about the importance of feel-good TV, creating her own projects, and the value of a cathartic cry
, she was looking for something different when it came time to pick a new project — particularly a project that didn't have as much violence as her previous work.The Hollywood Reporterended and I thought maybe I'm done acting, maybe I should be focusing on writing, directing and producing. And part of that came from a feeling that I would love to have a greater voice in what stories are told.
This is a little bit of a soapbox moment, but the ways in which female strength have been articulated, I think periodically it needs a bit of a reexamination.
In a potential second season I would love to get into the directing side of things. So far the people on the show have been incredibly supportive of working with me to try and make that happen. I sold a podcast right before we went into production, actually. It's a narrative podcast so it's like an old time radio drama, and my weekends on the show I was writing the whole thing and every now and again I'd fly into New York and we'd record some of it. I'm actually in L.A.
Part of what's exciting about it is this is not a show with a set formula. Which I like. There are certain episodes that have a breadth that are similar to the pilot, which is we cover a fair amount of time in one hour and we chart the way that people change through that time.
