We chat with Unprisoned stars kerrywashington and Delroy Lindo about their on-set chemistry, costar Faly Rakotohavana's growth as an actor, and the importance of telling this American family's story given the state of the prison system:
Hulu's new dramedy Unprisoned may be full of laughs, but the issues at its core are serious. Starring Kerry Washington, the 8-episode season follows relationship therapist Paige Alexander whose personal life is upended when her father Edwin gets out of jail after his latest 17-year prison sentence. Unprisoned is creator Tracy McMillan's first time helming a series, which is particularly special as it is based on her personal experiences.
Kerry Washington: I've loved Delroy for many, many, many, many, many years. Despite not really being in a relationship with them, but loving him from afar. Every step of the way, I've just been so grateful that Delroy said yes, because it's been a really special process. It has just felt like a privilege to tell this story and to bring these characters to life, and to be able to do it together with the rest of our incredibly talented cast and the writers in this crew.
Delroy Lindo: Yeah, and I did learn from him. It's a great way to put it because I did learn from him. Faly as an actor is extremely open and very present. And while I don't think in those kinds of terms at the moment, I'm saying that now in the context of doing an interview. I don't think about that in the work, but when you're working with an actor who is that present, that open, and that vulnerable — you better work in a way that will raise the dynamic.
