You need to make sure it’s balanced, you need to have all shapes and sizes and colors and ages. It kind of was like a real jury process for you. And I think that they started to frame some of the characters around what actors were bringing to the table instead of doing it the other way around. I put out a breakdown, just male 18+ could be a juror and the same thing for a woman. We basically started seeing anyone, any man or woman. I think that the writers probably had a rough idea of some characters in their minds when we started doing this, but it certainly didn’t translate to the casting process. I’ve never cast anything like this before, in that when we started casting, I didn’t have any material. Most casting directors don’t work with improv actors, so what was it like for you? Had you ever done anything like this before? Farris spoke with Variety to share her process behind selecting television’s favorite petit jury.
