Anna Friel and Lee Pace recently spoke to Sci-Fi Wire about the upcoming season of Pushing Daisies.
Here are some highlights from the interview:
On the season premiere: “The very first scene of the very first episode is in our beekeeper outfits,” Frield said. “She gets her first-ever job at a honey factory, where she’s a honey-bee girl.”
On a future episode that focuses on nuns: “The nuns are really funny,” Pace said. “Mo Collins plays the dead nun in the nunnery episode. She plays this trash-talking nun, and she’s funny, funny, funny. In that episode, we’re having a good time with the gumshoe-solving-crimes [genre].
Chi [McBride] was doing this real serious, kind of noir, kind of William Shatner [style of] acting. So I did a take where I was kind of making fun of him doing that. That’s when he cracked up. I don’t know if they’ll use it in the episode, but I hope they do.”
On episode four and frescorts: “Frescorts are friends for hire, which actually exists,” Pace said. “David Arquette is our guest star in that episode. He’s someone in need of a frescort. He knew the dead frescort, and he and Ned become really friendly because we’re both misfits.”
Remember: Pushing Daisies returns on October 1. We can’t wait!
