beside cast fangirling over books and leigh's proud mama face what jessie and amita said about theri diversities meant a lot to me, they are perfect cast, all of them
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched! From balancing the conversation about the book vs the show, Freddy & Leigh’s conversation about Kaz’s disability, Amita and Jessie discussing their characters as actors of color, as well as showcasing the fun and affection this cast has for one another. Props to Fan Fest for thoughtful, well-researched questions!
23:38 Leigh speaking entire fandom's mind bcoz that's legit Inej straight outta books Amita understood the assignment and nailed it with a PhD this just made my day, my week and year until the season 2 is out!!
9:00 "What if darkness was a place it should be on the trailer" ben barnes says...they really went for it ahahaha the power that ben barnes hold amazes me everytime
31:55 I'm literally crying. For me it's very important to follow my dream and my passion and I know that can be hard but it's so unfair that some people are more privileged just because of their races. And I'm so happy that Amita and Jessie are part of the cast ❤
I tested up watching this, all of these actors/actresses are so inspirational and really are the change, as Amita and Jessie were saying. Leigh did an extraordinary job at portraying diversity and creating a worldwide phenomenon with such unbelievably talented people to portray these characters.
Yes I noticed that in the background. Ben said in an interview that he had took that kefta from set and bought that black manikin and then proceeded to give them to Eric because he saw he himself didn’t take anything from set and that Ben wanted him to see it as he is writing season two like the Darkling is looming over him.
Amita as a reader is absolutely me as a reader 🤣🤣🤣 having watched this video after I binged the show, I can definitely say that you guys have all done a brilliant job and I loved every bit of it!
I agree a lot with what Leigh said around 17:13 because the addition of the Crows and then some other changes (that obviously neede to happen) made it all more exciting because we know the story, but we don't know THIS one.
@@JuliaJiggs for one thing, don't make people feel like idiots. for another thing, yeah the ending was ambiguous, but it definitely left the door open for both of them to work through & overcome their trauma. so i feel like after the book ended, that's totally plausible for them to get together, and be a couple.
@@kamanda42 Oh I totally believe they can overcome their trauma and one day be a couple, but it’s not likely within the timeframe of the show or even another book. I think leaving it up to our imagination and just assuming they work things out when they’re older is better than scraping out so much of the main plot for that kind of arc
I'm so proud of all the cast members. Amita is truly an inspiration for me. I know I'm more privileged than her but chasing your dreams is always scary and sometimes it feels pointless to even try but she showed us to never give up. I hope she knows how much it means for us.
@@teamfreddycuk8518 I really do hope so. They're all such an inspiration. The way they all talk about their past made me believe that dreams really can come true so I decided to chase mine. 🥺
After reading and watching the show I’m so proud of leigh creation, Erics adaptation/ creation , and the entires cast impeccable performance. I truly hope we get a season 2 and more crows
i haven’t read the books and i only started watching the series cause i was bored so i didn’t really mind any of the details at all. and i really didn’t notice that kaz had a cane until it was brought up in a dialogue. like, freddy made it look so natural that i didn’t even think there was something unnatural about kaz at all!
Okay I can see they have really changed the story.. like... Kaz and his group aren’t supposed to see the shadow fold right... but here it feels like they do.. which means it’s the same timeline..... like they interact.... and I’m all for it.. but... like... it changes a lot of things and also.. WHERE THE FUCK IS NIKOLAI!
The first season only follows Shadow and Bone, so since Nikolai appears in Siege and Storm, we have to wait until Season 2 to see him in our screens 😊 Also they have come up with prequel stories for the Crows, so they could fit into the Shadow and Bone timeline. That's why we see them before the heist in Six of Crows, and also why it's possible for them to see the Shadow Fold 😊😍
Nina, Matthias and Zoya are all in the show currently, but since this is only the first season and it only covers the first book (shadow and bone) characters like Nikolai and Wylan won’t be introduced till later. The crows also have like a new plot that we haven’t seen from the books to incorporate them in S&B
i think they’ll probably still call him the Darkling eventually, but if I remember right he went under an alias at the beginning. Plus, for new people The Darkling is a pretty incriminating name lol so I think that it’s likely when Alina reaches the little palace or he’s revealed to be the villain he is - that’s when they’ll switch to that name??? i think??? i hope anyways lmao
the way freddy can literally quote six of crows,, i fucking love this man, i can't wait for the show
Yes April 23 please hurry up ❤🙏🏻
This whole video is the cast fangirling over the books for 34 minutes and 25 seconds😂
Yes, and we absolutely love it :D
Yeeeeepep
i’m so proud of leigh and this cast i’m sobbing hugs all around
every time I see shadow and bone content my excitement brings tears to my eyes and I can’t contain myself.
@@333ava4 same🥲
Anyone else love how in King of Scars, Whenever Kaz is mentioned he is called “that bastard Kaz Brekker”?
beside cast fangirling over books and leigh's proud mama face what jessie and amita said about theri diversities meant a lot to me, they are perfect cast, all of them
Yes, they all are so amazing 😍
i’ve watched the trailer atleast 20 times and i’m not even sorry about it
Neither are we... We'll go watch it again :D
I have watched it just for 2 seconds of Kaz
The trailer was just perfect
The moment i saw kaz i died
I think we all died a little yesterday 😁
I thought I was the only one
@@debraflower3870 Definitely not 😄
I died came back to life to watch the trailer again then died again
Yall, Freddy's voice ain't that rough like Kaz's but his gentle voice is so good to hear, im just so down for it
And when he raises his voice, it becomes deeper, so we're really excited to both see and hear him portray Kaz :)
This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever watched! From balancing the conversation about the book vs the show, Freddy & Leigh’s conversation about Kaz’s disability, Amita and Jessie discussing their characters as actors of color, as well as showcasing the fun and affection this cast has for one another.

Love this comment
23:38 Leigh speaking entire fandom's mind bcoz that's legit Inej straight outta books Amita understood the assignment and nailed it with a PhD this just made my day, my week and year until the season 2 is out!!
Freddy's story is the sweetest, he had to stop reading the book because he was afraid he'd get so attached to Kaz without getting the role
i adore that the whole cast has read the books and loves the world. it makes me so happy :))
Same 😍 It's so nice that they love the books as much as we do 😊❤
9:00 "What if darkness was a place it should be on the trailer" ben barnes says...they really went for it ahahaha the power that ben barnes hold amazes me everytime
Everyone is just so handsome and beautiful!
Yes the cast is so beautiful 😍😍

I thought that since Prince Caspian one couldn't actually be more in love with Ben Barnes. I now know I was very wrong
He's just amazing
This casting is so perfect I could cry
That "you are the change" was just such a heartwarming thing to say.
I tested up watching this, all of these actors/actresses are so inspirational and really are the change, as Amita and Jessie were saying. Leigh did an extraordinary job at portraying diversity and creating a worldwide phenomenon with such unbelievably talented people to portray these characters.
Teared up***
omg eric has a black darkling kefta in the background lol
Yes, the Darkling's kefta is gorgeous! :)
Yes I noticed that in the background. Ben said in an interview that he had took that kefta from set and bought that black manikin and then proceeded to give them to Eric because he saw he himself didn’t take anything from set and that Ben wanted him to see it as he is writing season two like the Darkling is looming over him.

23rd April!! I am so excited!!!
We literally can't wait!
im too excited it’s not okay. im gonna die waiting istg
We're dying with you :D
Inej u have my heart ❤❤❤❤
Amita is perfect for Inej :)
I agree a lot with what Leigh said around 17:13 because the addition of the Crows and then some other changes (that obviously neede to happen) made it all more exciting because we know the story, but we don't know THIS one.
No, we needed something unexpected. Otherwise it would just be like reading Shadow and Bone again :)
Ben: I am drawn to playing characters with duality and sus.
Me: Caspian was the purest character ever!!!!!
@@chasingmayy Dorian had his duality to him. Caspian literally has no dark side. He was pure innocence, bravery, kindness, loving to his friends.
@@chasingmayy
And Jigsaw
@@chasingmayy 😱😱😱 he did such a good job with Narnia!!!! It was like his first movie!
Love the way Ben put a heart to when Leigh was talking about Jessie ❤❤
I just i can't understand why anybody ask about Kaz and Inej as a couple!!! I NEED THAT ENDGAME PLEASE!!
You do realize their trauma prevents this from really happening? Was the ambiguous happy ending not enough for you?
@@JuliaJiggs for one thing, don't make people feel like idiots. for another thing, yeah the ending was ambiguous, but it definitely left the door open for both of them to work through & overcome their trauma. so i feel like after the book ended, that's totally plausible for them to get together, and be a couple.

Omg thank you so much for recording this, I missed it due to school work:(
You're so welcome. We loved this panel :)
I'm so proud of all the cast members. Amita is truly an inspiration for me. I know I'm more privileged than her but chasing your dreams is always scary and sometimes it feels pointless to even try but she showed us to never give up. I hope she knows how much it means for us.
We're sure she does
@@teamfreddycuk8518 I really do hope so. They're all such an inspiration. The way they all talk about their past made me believe that dreams really can come true so I decided to chase mine. 🥺
18:41 Ben and Jessie are so cute together!
I am obsessed with Tom Felton/Draco Malfoy and now Freddy Carter?! Damn British men
7:13 Ben's kefta says "boss" on the collar
i'm crying hearing Amita and Jessie talk about diveristy and the rest of the cast just nodding their head proudly. It's so sweet and inspirational.
I really wonder if they’re going to add kazs raspy voice that they always mention in the books!
Freddy has a softer voice, but when he gets angry his tone gets a lot deeper. So I'm very excited to hear him in the show :)
You totally can feel the love of this creative team!! Inn m hope more people discover show too!
24:34 Freddy was so ready for quarantine
I feel in love with Jessie's accent 🥺
love the sharing that Amita and Jessie did in answering the last question about diversity. they certainly were right
Can't wait ♡♡♡
We can't either 😊❤
Amita ❤️
After reading and watching the show I’m so proud of leigh creation, Erics adaptation/ creation , and the entires cast impeccable performance. I truly hope we get a season 2 and more crows
gosh they are just such wonderful people
I m dying because of all of them. Ohhh I hope I will close my eyes and open them and its 26 of April
Hopefully you'll open your eyes on the 23rd, since the show premieres that day 😉😍
Well... I have a feeling Kaz Brekker is gonna steal the show after few seconds on screen - AND I'M READY!!!😂 OH SO READY. MAYBE TOO MUCH 😂
It feels like we're ready. But on the day, we're definitely not 😂❤ However we are so excited to see Freddy as Kaz 😍😍
He did . I'm obsessed with Kaz Brekker
omg thank you for posting this!!
AAAA BRASILLLLL, a primeira fã a perguntar é brasileira, meu país ♡
I'm so fucking excited for this aarrg
Same! 😍👏🏻
Amei a joquer escrito RM ... Me representa 🥰🥰🥰🥰 . MV maravilhoso!!!
i watched the whole video ang i am now crying this is amazing
Oh yeah I felt all the LOVE. I am obsessed with it xD
Really I can’t believe that happened
No it's all so surreal
cant wait to see the series!!
i haven’t read the books and i only started watching the series cause i was bored so i didn’t really mind any of the details at all. and i really didn’t notice that kaz had a cane until it was brought up in a dialogue. like, freddy made it look so natural that i didn’t even think there was something unnatural about kaz at all!
Archie is making me like mal
Very unpopular opinion, but I like Mal. Even before Archie 😁
@@teamfreddycuk8518 Not that unpopular. I love book Mal ;)
i really wanna see the fabulous video of freddy eating banana with his glooves on, please ben share that video
Yes! We need that video 😂😍🙏🏻
i love kit
23:30
8:35 “maybe we could wake them up” energy!!
Okay I can see they have really changed the story.. like...

Haven’t y’all read the books?
@@natasha4046 Yes. We know how it all goes. But some don't it would seem 😊😍
@@teamfreddycuk8518 yeah lol
❤❤❤
i love the way most of the comments are about freddy
I’m so late to the party but where are Nina and the rest of the Crows? And where’s Zoya and Nikolai?
Nina, Matthias and Zoya are all in the show currently, but since this is only the first season and it only covers the first book (shadow and bone) characters like Nikolai and Wylan won’t be introduced till later. The crows also have like a new plot that we haven’t seen from the books to incorporate them in S&B
this is awesome
The cast is amazing 😍
Obsessed with ben barnes #darkling
Hoping he has character development
KIT IS SOOO FINEEE
not ben comparing s&b to riverdale 😭
3:56 18:40 28:05
looooooooooove ben barnes n freddy
Not Ben pretending he doesn't know anything about his place in harry potter 😭
He was like "oh shit i shouldn't have said about different colours kefta"
I love all of this, but like... we’re not supposed to know the Darkling’s name??? Why did they just brush over that?
from my understanding, they gave him a different name (Kirigan) to avoid calling him the Darkling? I'm not completely sure why
i think they’ll probably still call him the Darkling eventually, but if I remember right he went under an alias at the beginning. Plus, for new people The Darkling is a pretty incriminating name lol so I think that it’s likely when Alina reaches the little palace or he’s revealed to be the villain he is - that’s when they’ll switch to that name??? i think??? i hope anyways lmao
hello
Ben at 7:10 LMAOOO
So no Nikolai. 😢 Please be his own series. Lol
its all fun and games until you learn that grisha is another word for Grigori in russia
Ok, it's just my thoughts but don't you think that they were a little overrated when talked about books?
I was glad that they were so ecstatic, and I'm happy about the fact that they have read the books several times. If we can be hyped, so can they 😊❤🙏🏻
