ABC's hit series "Mistresses" is set to return with season two. |
"Mistresses", which is based on a British series, follows four long-time friends who either have been a mistress, are affected by a mistress or seem liable to become one. The four female leads are Savannah, the attorney; Joss who is the promiscuous real estate agent; there is April who is the grieving widow and single mom ,and Karen who plays the successful therapist.
This drama production takes place at Culver Studios in Los Angeles and our visit starts with Karen played by the famous South Korean actress Yoon-Jin Kim.
Alyssa Milano, plays Savannah or Savi, as her friends call her. She's a controlling but still caring attorney who is scheduling dates with her chef husband in hopes of making a baby. And since that is not working out, she takes comfort in a colleague.
With your character Savi how have you seen her grow and change throughout season one and now season two?
"Poor Savi. I think she's going through an adjustment in season two. She's obviously gone through a lot of changes since the first season, which is good. I think the first season it was all about her really coming to terms with these decisions that she made that affected her marriage and her work atmosphere and her friendships and her family. That first season was really all about the repercussions of her decision," Milano said.
Playing Savi's mirror-opposite sister is Joss - a real estate agent whose specialty appears to be a disdain for commitment. That part belongs to actress Jess Macallan who said that there was a lot of her in the character she plays.
"She filters into my life a little bit – where all of a sudden my husband is like what the heck is that - like my friends they have a tag line 'that's so Joss of you,' Macallan said. "When we're not filming it comes out - it's not as prevalent and in your face but she definitely has a lot of the free spirit and I have that as well, really, like complacency, like I tell people how it is. I'm sure you can tell that. A lot of energy – I'm in your face - that stays throughout.
