chasing rubies

A question for Assad and Delainey: your performances as Armand and Claudia were life-changing! Could you tell us a little bit about the dynamic between your characters and how it was to play them as rivals and perhaps even narrative parallels? DELAINEY: I think this sea– Oh. I can't even say that. ASSAD: (laughs) DELAINEY: ...I think this season is new and fun, and wait and see that! But last season I don't think Armand took the time to get to –we spoke about this yesterday– know her. There's a world where they might have gotten along. But, she was in the way, so he did what he had to do. Um, I hate him for it. ASSAD: Who? Armand or me? DELAINEY: Armand. And... I don't remember the rest of the question! ASSAD: What's brilliant is that, we get on (gestures to Delainey) Like we clearly get on– DELAINEY: (Grins) Do weee? ASSAD: (Laughs) Fine, I think we get on. But we had some really nice moments. Like, Armand being threatening towards you– I remember there's a scene in season 2 where I push you up against the wall... DELAINEY: Oh, yeah. ASSAD: Do you remember that? DELAINEY: Oh that was lovely. ASSAD: We had to do that really close to the end. I think it was our last day...? DELAINEY: Yeah! ASSAD: It was freezing cold and I had to push you against the wall, but in-between takes we were both like this: wuwuwuwuuwhwhwh! But yeah it was fun to be frenemies. And maybe we get to do it again... I don't know. DELAINEY: Maybe.
