\n

Elizabeth Mitchell is the latest addition to the cast of Netflix’s Outer Banks, which returns for its second season Friday, July 30.<\/p>\n

Mitchell is best known for her scene-stealing roles on Lost, The Purge: Election Year, Revolution, and Once Upon a Time.<\/p>\n

The list goes on. The actress has app<\/a>eared in a string of hit movies<\/a> and TV shows, and TV Fanatic got the chance to chat with her about Outer Banks, as well as her new projects on the horizon.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

TV Fanatic: Your latest series, Outer Banks, kicks off its second season this week. What attracted you to the show? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Elizabeth Mitchell: A lot of things. I hadn’t seen it yet when I got the audition, and I watched it really quickly because I love to do my homework, but then I continued to watch it, and I absolutely got sucked in.<\/p>\n

So I think it was working with the Pate brothers and with this incredible cast. I was just excited about it.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

I didn’t know a whole lot about the character, except that she was a bit toxic and hurt.<\/p>\n

I wanted to see what that looks like. So I found myself a little bit scared and a little bit excited, and that’s what drew me to it. Those two things are usually a good signal for me.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re playing Carla Limbrey on the series. Are you able to speak about how your character fits into the show? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Carla is a Charleston native.\u00a0 She is old money. She is one from one of those old, old, old, old Southern families.<\/p>\n

And she is after the same thing everybody is after, but she has a very distinct reason and, honestly, nothing to lose. So she is an interesting, in my way of thinking, antagonist for this particular story.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

The first season ended on quite the cliffhanger, with the Pogues assuming John B and Sarah to be dead. Can you tease anything about the aftermath of that?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The aftermath is very rewarding. They do it in such a way where the first three episodes really do feel like the wildest ride you can imagine.<\/p>\n

I think that what we all hope for and long for is that the Pogues will all be together. That’s what happens when you fall in love with a group like that, and I think people will be happy with the way things turn out this season.<\/p>\n

I understand you\u2019re playing Margo on the new Netflix drama, First Kill. What can you tell me about that show?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

I’m a vampire! I’m a 500-year-old vampire! Oh, I’ve always wanted to play a vampire.<\/p>\n

That’s exactly what attracted me to this show. I love the showrunner, Felicia. I find her world-building skills to be second to none.<\/p>\n

I was excited about the idea of working on a television show with so many females. I thought that that was really fun.<\/p>\n

When I spoke and auditioned and interviewed with everybody, I was in a room with all women, and I found that to be so interesting, in comparison to where I had been auditioning most of my life. I was instantly intrigued and a little bit tickled and ready to take it on.<\/p>\n

And I quite like Margo. She is an interesting matriarch, and she fascinated me as well. So I think a combination of the script and the people behind the camera. All of that was really intriguing to me.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

Your past shows have mostly been on cable and broadcast, and they\u2019ve typically rolled out on a weekly basis. What are your thoughts on releasing all the episodes at once? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I like the idea of it feeling like a long movie. I liked the idea that you can be immersed. I think that sometimes with the twisty turny adventure shows that I like so much, if you separate them by too much time, you forget a plot point, and then you have to go back and rewatch.<\/p>\n

And I think when they’re all together, especially for a thriller or an adventure show, those shows really do benefit from being back to back.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t bother me one bit. I kind of think it’s wonderful. I do it myself. When I fall in love with something, you just sit on the couch, and all of a sudden, you fall into another world.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

You\u2019ve been a part of some of my favorite shows, including Lost, Revolution, Dead of Summer, and Once Upon a Time. <\/strong><\/p>\n

What are your thoughts on either of those shows making a comeback in some capacity?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would be so happy if any of them did come back. The fun thing about any sort of reboot is that you get a different perspective of a good idea.<\/p>\n

And a different perspective of a good idea, a creative take on something that works, is something that I’m always happy to watch. Battlestar Galactica was just extraordinary, right?<\/p>\n

It’s so fun when we take things, and we put a whole different idea. That would be an absolute pleasure for me to watch on any of those shows.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

I really like the Purge franchise, but my favorite one was Election Year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m so glad. I liked that one, too. It felt like a thriller to me.<\/p>\n

Do you think you’d ever return to the franchise?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I absolutely enjoyed working with everybody. If they came up with something that we all thought was wonderful, absolutely.<\/p>\n

Those people were fantastic to work with, and I liked the fact that that one was more thriller than horror.<\/p>\n

It’s not that I don’t like horror, it’s just that I liked the thriller aspect of it, and I had been wanting to do that.<\/p>\n

\n \"The<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

So that felt like it filled something that I hadn’t really done before. I really enjoyed it. I loved our director and I had a great time with him.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re also attached to the movie When Time Got Louder. What can you tell me about that?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh, my goodness. I really loved that movie. That is such an emotionally naked film.<\/p>\n

Very few of us wore any makeup, and a lot of it was improv.<\/p>\n

We worked with a lot of incredible actors on the spectrum. It’s about a family living with autism, and it’s unflinching, but at the same time, it shows you the joy of it, as well as the struggle.<\/p>\n

\n \"Elizabeth<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

I learned so much in doing it, and I found it to be an emotionally naked role that I enjoyed tremendously.<\/p>\n

I had such a lovely time just being a mom and a mom who is in a crisis. Our young director was also extraordinary.<\/p>\n

If we circle back to First Kill, you’re playing a vampire for the first time, which you’ve wanted to do for some time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can you speak about some of the challenges of that in comparison to some of your previous roles?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first one is physical. It’s very hard to talk with the teeth in. You have a little bit of a lisp. Like, I feel like I talk maybe like I did when I was seven and didn’t have my teeth right, but it’s very endearing, especially when you see other people do it.<\/p>\n

\n \"Juliet<\/img>\n<\/div>\n

Although you can’t really claim humanity for someone who is 500 years old and also a predator, you can claim love for family and you can claim wanting the people that you love to be safe and well and cared for.<\/p>\n

And that part, I also identify with. Those are the things that we have in common. The predator is not. I’m not a predator, and I don’t think that way, but to be a hunter. It’s a very interesting thing to play.<\/p>\n

It’s a very interesting thing to think of yourself in that way in an imaginary setting. So that was really interesting, especially for such a pacifist as me.<\/p>\n

Thanks so much for chatting with me, and good luck with all your projects this year. I’m so excited for all of them. <\/strong><\/p>\n

So many, and I don’t really know how I ended up being so lucky, but I’m excited too. And I’m grateful that you are. Have a wonderful rest of your day.<\/p>\n

TV Fanatic had the chance to watch Outer Banks Season 2 ahead of its debut, and we’ll be running down all the events in episodic reviews. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The fun begins Friday, July 30 at 04:00 ET.<\/strong><\/p>\n
