"I'm happy with what I did on it, to be honest," she said. The actress also spoke about the gold dress she wore to The Albies awards.
She had designed it for the show and ensured she could wear it for several days of filming, even in scenes where her character was stabbed. "The show's gone... the dress remains!" she remarked.
After the interview clip was shared on Instagram, fans rallied for the show's return. Many expressed hope that another network would save the series and grant it a second season.
The cancellation has sparked a wider conversation about the longevity of streaming content and the impact of sudden cancellations on dedicated fan bases. Waddingham, known for her powerful performances, remains a beloved figure in the industry.
Her transparency regarding the project's end has resonated with many who feel that quality storytelling often falls victim to corporate metrics. While the future of the series remains uncertain, the actress continues to focus on her upcoming projects.
