Blindspotting and Hamilton star Jasmine Cephas Jones praises director Ava DuVernay and her upcoming film Caste:
Blindspotting began as a 2018 film, but its cult following and critical acclaim led to a STARZ series that is now celebrating its second season. While the original film followed best friends Miles and Collin after the latter's release from prison, the series centers Miles' wife Ashley and her methods of coping after he gets sent to prison.
Jasmine Cephas Jones: We have arrived to where she has accepted what has happened, I think. The acceptance in the first season that she was trying to find, I think she's accepted that now. But what we're finding right at the beginning of season 2 is her trying to find her sense of self while being a little bit in denial of how depressed she's becoming.
It also creates something of a wider chasm between herself and Rainey this season. Can you talk about the awkwardness of those scenes with Helen Hunt? They're great scenes, and we really go head-to-head with each other this season. But there are some beautiful scenes that happen later on in the season between Rainey and Ashley.
I don't think anything has changed, since Rafael and Daveed have always opened the floor to me in that sense. The show also has become my baby in that way, as well. It's been a journey from how we started and where we are now, with five billboards around LA. I did not know that we would be here. I've always been supported, and my voice has always been heard on the show, so I'm very grateful for that.
I believe Caste is coming up for you next, and I'm very excited for that. What can you tell me about that and working with Ava DuVernay?
