We recently spoke with Celeste O’Connor on the Popternative show who plays Shannon in Paramount+’s upcoming film The In Between, premiering on Friday, February 11, 2022.

The In Between is a supernatural love story that centers on a teenage girl, Tessa (Joey King), who, after bouncing around in foster homes for most of her childhood, doesn’t believe she deserves her own love story. Everything changes after she has a chance encounter with Skylar (Kyle Allen), a senior from a neighboring town who’s a true romantic. As her heart begins to open, tragedy strikes when a car accident takes Skylar’s life, while Tessa survives. As Tessa searches for answers in the aftermath of the accident, she soon believes Skylar is attempting to reconnect with her from the afterworld.

In our interview, Celeste discusses what it was like playing an upbeat character like Shannon who is surrounded by grief and sadness. They also go into detail about filming specific scenes and what went into creating some of the car scenes with Tessa (played by Joey King).

The In Between will be available to stream exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. on February 11, 2022, and is coming soon to Netflix internationally.
