Alessandra Torresani interviewed on portraying Zoe

Friday, May 15th, 2009

Alessandra Torresani, who plays Zoe Graystone in the upcoming Caprica television series, was interviewed by Sci Fi Wire recently by telephone from the Battlestar Galactica Auction. She mentions speaking with Jane Espenson (a writer for the show who will become executive producer halfway through Season 1) about fleshing out her character through flashback scenes. Also of topic was learning to mime as a cylon since she will be acting out her robotic counterpart. In discussing how to portray different versions of Zoe, Alessandra says she drew inspiration from identical twins:

“That’s how I kind of [saw] the characters, as Zoe and Zoe-A. They are basically the same person, but they are also completely opposite. That’s how I feel twins are: People look at them and think they are the same, but they always have different personalities.

[Zoe] takes life for granted because she has all of this money, and she can do whatever she wants, so she basically says, ‘F–k you guys, I’m going to do my own thing.’ Then I took Zoe-A, or avatar Zoe, as the sweet child or innocent [version] of what the original Zoe was earlier in her life. She is more naïve, because thinking is brand-new to her, so she’s a brand-new, newborn baby. So her eyes just light up when she sees certain things, but she’s deeply, deeply scared, and she is the innocent of the original Zoe. So the two of them, they make a perfect whole.”

 

But Alessandra also gives away a spoiler about Zoe’s story:
