How much are we going to see him questioning about his path going forward?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Michelle King: <\/strong>You will see it. And what\u2019s wonderful is Sister Andrea \u2014 we love the character and we love Andrea Martin so much \u2014 is such a voice of reason and faith with him that it\u2019s a good way to explore that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert King: <\/strong>I do think you hit on, what is the dilemma for David, which is, is this real? Was this all a figment of my imagination and what do I do when God stops talking to me? There were the diaries or letters written by Mother Teresa about how she had visions and heard God when she was younger. And then for like the last, I think, 40 years of her life, she didn\u2019t hear God again. And her questioning is just part of the strain of if you do believe in God, but you think that God maybe has lost affection for you or that maybe God didn\u2019t exist and it was your imagination when you were younger. A lot of that is playing into David.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1012157\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1012157\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1012157\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david.jpg\" alt=\"Aasif Mandvi as Ben Shakir, Mike Colter as David Acosta in Evil\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-ben-david-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1012157\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elizabeth Fisher\/CBS<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>We\u2019re seeing Ben struggling, not just with Abbey the friendly night terror demon, but also with things from his past \u2014 then he has a vision of his mom and wonders about her being disappointed in him. That\u2019s about how he feels about himself, right?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert: <\/strong>You\u2019re exactly right. It\u2019s very much like the [James] Joyce character, Stephen Dedalus, the idea that he lost faith and even on his mom\u2019s death bed, he wouldn\u2019t kneel there, he wouldn\u2019t pray. Ben is going through that same dilemma of, what did I owe my family? What do I owe my family, being Muslims, and is my moving away from that endangering a culture in a way? But for him, it\u2019s complicated by the fact that he felt he did something very wrong. A lot of it is one of the reasons why he\u2019s involved with this at all. He does acknowledge that there\u2019s evil in the world, even if it\u2019s maybe not supernatural.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It seems like Kristen, David and Ben are all dealing with these things separately. No one\u2019s talking to each other about these things. Is that going to change? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert and Michelle:<\/strong> Yes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert:<\/strong> One of the things we love about Kristin and David, and Ben and David, is how much they talk through serious subject matters that a lot of us deal with in the quiet of our homes, but don\u2019t really talk about, and they don\u2019t come out of it angry at each other or yelling at each other or ready to kill each other. They\u2019re dealing with red state, blue state things that we all deal with, religion, no religion, and they don\u2019t come out of it angry, which I think is aspirational. Not all aspirational is about having a nice car or a nice house or being Ted Lasso. It\u2019s having a discussion about issues that matter and not wanting to kill each other. I do think all three of them are different points on an isosceles triangle, trying to deal with each other\u2019s mindsets.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1012158\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1012158\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1012158\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen.jpg\" alt=\"Mike Colter as David, Aasif Mandvi as Ben, Katja Herbers as Kristen in Evil\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/evil-208-david-ben-kristen-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1012158\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elizabeth Fisher\/CBS<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Michelle: <\/strong>And I would say it\u2019s the part of the show I enjoy the most.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sheryl has that that lovely, creepy doll Eddie she\u2019s sacrificing to.

How much more is there to her than meets the eye?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert: <\/strong>A lot. First of all, there\u2019s a lot more to Andrea Martin than meets the eye. One of the things we loved about this was this idea of her diminutive stature and then Mike\u2019s towering over her, but there was this inner strength there that might beat everybody in the show. There might be so much strength there that is spiritual, supernatural, possibly even physical. We love this idea that there would be all these layers of her that you wouldn\u2019t see right away but you\u2019d start to peel away over the course of this season and next season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michelle: <\/strong>She\u2019s unique in the characters in how much certainty she has. Unlike most of them, she\u2019s not questioning. She\u2019s not questioning her beliefs. She\u2019s not questioning her actions. She is totally grounded in what she believes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You\u2019ve now played with David\u2019s reaction to Kristen committing murder with her vision. What can you say about how much we should keep in mind of that when it comes to his actual reaction?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert: <\/strong>Everything. Here\u2019s the thing: You don\u2019t even need to interview us. You could just put your instincts down on paper and they would be correct. The bottom line is Kristen isn\u2019t whole. She\u2019s suffering. She thought it was enough that she didn\u2019t feel guilt about this because this guy was threatening her children. Then she got this reprieve from the police, but there is still something in her that needs to be answered. The God helmet version of Dr. Boggs [Kurt Fuller] tells her, you\u2019ve got to go to David and tell him, and that\u2019s not what he says in reality, but obviously, that\u2019s Kristin\u2019s mind telling her. That\u2019s what\u2019s so cool about that middle: It\u2019s Kristen\u2019s mind telling her what she thinks she needs to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaking of Boggs, should we assume that Sheryl isn\u2019t done using him yet? Because those scenes were so good earlier this season.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Michelle:<\/strong> Let\u2019s assume that. \u2026 Kurt Fuller is spectacular. His natural impulse is always comedy, so there\u2019s great depth in everything he does.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are we going to see him being involved in more cases?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert: <\/strong>Yes. there\u2019s quite a bit. If we went into too much detail here, it would give away too much of the fun.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Evil<\/em>, Sundays, Paramount+<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
