So when I read the script, I was shocked. I was just like, "Oh, this might be crazy! Maybe they've done that!" But obviously, it wasn't that. I don't know why I said that, I had no basis for it. My theory was that Kevin wasn't actually dead and it was him. I had a wild theory that was not true at all! (laughs) "Wait, this is a condition?" And they said all the people we send the script to, we want to get a response as if you're a test audience. And then the producer, writer, and director emailed me and said, "Before we send you episode 7, you have to guess." And I was like. Screen Rant: When did the cast learn who killed Erin and what was your reaction?Īngourie Rice: They sent me all the way up until episode 6. I think it works for the character and it was a good change for me as well, I think. It was a big change but I'm really happy they went for it. She was the head of the hair department and she did such a great job. I was pretty nervous but the woman who cut my hair, Shunika, was amazing. They just said, "Yeah, that's a great idea, we'll talk it over." And then when I got to set on the first day of preproduction, they were like, "We're gonna cut your hair!" So they did. I wasn't sure they were going to go for it. I suggested kind of a Kristen Stewart-type short, blonde thing.
Screen Rant: How did you and hair and makeup land on Siobhan’s unique, edgy look and hairstyle?Īngourie Rice: Initially in the script, hair was long and auburn and just had one side shaved. She had these adult, mature responsibilities but she was still struggling just to be a teenager and figure out where she wants to be in her life and moving forward. I really connected with those aspects of her story. She also has to keep the peace between her mom and her grandma. She's the peacemaker at family functions between her mom and her dad. She has to care for her nephew, a four-year-old boy. But she's had a lot of adult responsibilities from a very young age. She's a teenager and when I read the script, she was the same age as me. I really connected with Siobhan when I read the script. Those are two really great words you want to hear when you see a job offered. Screen Rant: Let’s go back to the beginning: What attracted you to the role of Siobhan?Īngourie Rice: I was interested in because it had two buzzwords: Kate Winslet and HBO.

Screen Rant spoke to Angourie Rice immediately after the Australian actress finished watching Mare of Easttown's finale.
