Link: No pregnant pause: Expecting a baby didn’t slow down Wynonna Earp or the actress playing her

From Eric Volmers of the Calgary Herald:

Link: No pregnant pause: Expecting a baby didn’t slow down Wynonna Earp or the actress playing her
“But we decided that the only way to make this show interesting and better with this situation is to make her pregnant. Once we reached that moment, everybody was like ‘Yeah, it’s the only way.’ But we still had to convince the networks, the financiers. We’re selling a superhero show around the world and this is outside the box.” Continue reading.

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Link: Wynonna Earp’s Tamara Duarte on Rosita’s complicated position and being the new kid
“Emily is so great at creating these three-dimensional characters that aren’t one thing. I think that’s why the show does so well is because it’s real and people connect with it. I felt like it was very much like Legally Blonde. I don’t think Rosita cares what other people think. Just like in Legally Blonde, it’s not something she cares if other people are aware or not, but she just stands strong and firm in who she is and her abilities.” Continue reading.

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Link: Wynonna Earp: Emily Andras talks “No Future in the Past”
“The fact that Nicole lied to Waverly was ten times worse on some level. I think at the end when Waverly is looking over the test, looking over the ice and remembering the true circumstances of who saved her that day, she is starting to put some threads together in her heart too.” Continue reading.

From Dalene Rovenstine of Entertainment Weekly:

Link: Did Wynonna Earp just time travel?
“In non-science terms, no, Wynonna did not technically time-travel. She went on a vision quest to the past, i.e. her spirit was able to see echoes of what had come before via astral projection while her corporeal body remained in the present. Man, that might be complete B.S., but I’m stoked I got to drop “corporeal” in a recap.” Continue reading.

Link: ‘Wynonna Earp’ Interview: Showrunner Emily Andras on Season 2’s Pregnancy Reveal and Juggling Storylines
“I think genre, as a rule, is really inclusive. Since the time of Star Trek, certainly hopeful genre portrays a world that we want to live in, one that celebrates diversity and equality. So, I almost think it’s easier in genre to comment on that stuff. And, really, I didn’t pull any punches. When I pitched the show, I was like, ‘I want to do a Western but with all the traditional male characters as women.’ I don’t feel like I’ve tricked anybody.” Continue reading.

From Molly Freeman of Screenrant:

Link: How Wynonna Earp Became One of the Most Feminist Sci-Fi Shows on TV
Midway through its second season, Wynonna Earp is tackling a storyline that action-based series – let alone any based on comic books – rarely showcase: the titular heroine getting pregnant, dealing with it, and still kicking butt. Now, showrunner and executive producer Andras discusses the series’ feminist leanings. Continue reading. 

From Morgan Glennon of Buddy TV:

Link: ‘Wynonna Earp’ Interviews: Melanie Scrofano and Emily Andras Talk Creating a Pregnant Heroine
“We see a woman that’s like, ‘Don’t tell me what I can and can’t do. I will let you know what I can and can’t do. I think you get to see that from me, Melanie, but also from Wynonna. She’s like ‘I will tell you when I’m done, don’t take this away from me. I’ve got this.'” Continue reading.

From Rebecca Murray of Showbiz Junkies:

Link: ‘Wynonna Earp’ Season 2: Dominique Provost-Chalkley and Katherine Barrell Talk Wayhaught and the Baby
“I think definitely with the addition of our new Earper baby on the way, things are just getting a lot more dangerous. I think there’s a sense among all the characters that the stakes got so high so fast, especially now that we all know. So, there’s this sense of when you’re caring for yourself and grownups it’s one thing, but when you’re caring for an unborn child and the safety of that child it’s another. I feel like the last final half of the second season just got super high stakes, super dangerous and everyone’s kind of on hyper hyper alert.” Continue reading.

From Kat Jetson of The Hollywood Reporter:

Link: How Syfy’s ‘Wynonna Earp’ Is Paying Homage to ‘Buffy’
When I was pitching Wynonna Earp I said that it was Buffy meets Justified. I truly believe Buffy is the beloved cult hit because it deserves to be. It speaks volumes that 20 years have gone by and we’re still talking about that show. People see it for what it was, which is groundbreaking. I can’t even pretend that Buffy didn’t influence me, but I don’t want to say Wynonna is derivative. I hope it’s not. Joss really taught me what an action heroine could be, which is a completely three-dimensional girl or woman with all those complications who can also kick butt. Continue reading.

From Andrew Parker of The Gate:

Link: The Wild Summer of Wynonna Earp’s Varun Saranga
“It’s been a whirlwind ride! I can’t really even adequately describe it. When I first got the role, I had no expectations about the show because I didn’t really have any insight as to how large or how loyal its fan base was, but as soon as I started everyone prepared me and told me that this was a very big thing that meant a lot to a lot of different people.” Continue reading.

“We really love our team both onscreen and off. We have a great team of producers and we love our executives at Syfy and Space. It’s so awesome to get to do it again with this team of people. To see that the cast genuinely loves the show and wants to make more Wynonna is the most gratifying thing to me personally.” Continue reading.

“There is so much of the storylines that come together and then break apart and then come together again. Everyone gets an arc. Everyone gets to shine and that’s her thing. Everyone gets to do their thing.” Continue reading.

““You have to put your money where your mouth is, you just have to be prepared to honor that commitment if you’re a feminist. I just can’t have her holding an increasingly large series of laundry baskets. I wanted her to kick some ass.” Continue reading.
