What was the appeal of playing Alicia?Alycia Debnam-Carey: “For me, what drew me to Alicia and specifically this initial script was that she’s got a toughness to her. She does have that kind of urban edge that is so L.A. L.A. has only very recently become home to me. It’s a very new home and so when I read the script, it actually coincided with my discovery of Los Angeles and what I knew of it, because I’m obviously from not L.A. But, yeah, so reading that, those elements resonated with me, that kind of street quality to her but also coming from an edge, a really cool edge. That’s what drew me actually, quite a lot.”
