Before the shows premiere, EW caught up with Biel to talk about unravelingLimetowns mystery.
Im going to out myself and say that.
I called my producing partner and said, We have to get involved in this!
and she stopped me and was like, This isnt real.
But it was so well done that it got me!
What can I say, it got me.
It felt topical, it felt terrifying, and it was just so well done and so smart.
We didnt want to change my regular speaking voice, necessarily.
These people who actually have their own podcasts, they pull you in because they sound so real.
Because thats whats so great about podcasts, right?
We also wanted to expand Lias character: What is her family like?
Is she dating someone?
Is she not dating someone?
Does she have kids?
Whats her home life look like?
What does APR look like?
So I just concentrated on trying to create something authentic for her.
Other thanLimetown, what are your go-to podcasts?Of courseAll Things Considered.
Im listening to something right now calledThe Clearing, which is a true-crime investigation kind of thing.The Bright Sessions.
Hold on, let me look at my list!
