We were joined on the Popternative show by Avery Konrad who plays Sara Myers in the MGM+ thriller horror series From. Season 2 premiered on April 23 and tells the story of a small town in the middle of nowhere that traps everyone who enters, and residents must also survive the deadly creatures that come out at night. In season 2, new truths about the nature and terrifying origins of the town begin to emerge with the arrival of newcomers.
From also stars Harold Perrineau (Claws, Lost), Catalina Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace, The Affair), Eion Bailey (Band of Brothers, Once Upon a Time), Hannah Cheramy (Van Helsing, The Hollow Child) Simon Webster (Chucky, Strays), Ricky He (The Good Doctor, Warming Up to You), Chloe Van Landschoot (Charity, Skin), Corteon Moore (Terror Train, Utopia Falls), Pegah Ghafoori (The Perfect Wedding), David Alpay (Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, Castle Rock), Elizabeth Saunders (Clarice, Mary Kills People), and Elizabeth Moy.
New series regulars for season 2 include Scott McCord (East of Middle West, The Sinner), Nathan D. Simmons (Diggstown, This Hour Has 22 Minutes), Kaelen Ohm (Hit & Run, Eumenides Falls), Angela Moore (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Maid), AJ Simmons (Reacher, Slasher), and Deborah Grover (My Next Door Nightmare, Jann).
In our interview, Avery discusses Sara’s character in season 2 and some of the aftermath of her actions from season 1:
“Every time she’s doing something she likes to think that it’s for the greater good of getting everyone home, and obviously she has a lot going on with hearing theses voices and trying to do the right thing and struggling with that knowing she has to do this terrible thing and that’s also eating her alive by having to make these huge sacrifices for what she thinks is going to get everyone home, which is ultimately what we all what. So her journey for season 2 is definitely very different than season 1, you’ll see a different side of Sara.”
She also talks about starring alongside Angourie Rice in last year’s comedy movie Honor Society on Paramount+.
