Did you get any feedback from Alyson Hannigan? Was she worried that Willow was going to be portrayed in a darker light?
Alyson is such a pro that she handles anything we throw at her, so no. The only issue that Alyson may have had, was the Italian spell that she had to do at the beginning.
She was unhappy with me for forcing her to speak lines and lines and paragraphs of a language of which she wasn't completely familiar, but in terms of the presentation of the character, no.
She's wonderful about being able to go dark, and that's amazing. When you have actors like we have, like Alyson and like our entire cast actually, we keep finding that no matter what we throw at them, they can handle it.
She got to play some of that really dark stuff, and it's a side of Willow we don't get to see very often. Alyson handles it like pro because that's what she can do. She's got so much depth.
