And is this person that I thought it was?
And maybe its not.
But my favorite moment in the finale is the last scene.
That was such a fking joy to shoot.
Both Ruairi and I got to play with this unease.
Theres a really deep connection between them, but theyre becoming adults now and its not a teenage crush.
And she really does love him.
So, she wants to believe him.
Catherines as much head as she is heart.
This is what she wanted and she went after it, and now shes here and shes got it.
We know shes got her doubts; she has that scene with Lina, but shes Machiavellian as well.
This is what suited her plan.
Its probably a similar thing for Catherine.
Everything shes been dreaming of since she was a little girl has come true.
Thats the really beautiful thing for me getting to play Catherine is that she really feels absolutely everything.
Catherine has gone from being completely at odds with Maggie Pole to being her literal savior.
Thats a quite amazing relationship.
Lina has now promised Oviedo she will start putting their relationship ahead of Catherine.I know!
Bros over hoes, I dont approve.
Is there any piece of Catherine that understands that?
Which of Catherines wedding dresses did you prefer Arthurs or this one?The first one.
Theyre both really beautiful, but the first one is truly the best thing Ive ever worn.
But maybe thats fitting the first one doesnt result in my subsequent divorce and demise.
Catherine has built her entire life now on the foundation of this lie.
How does she justify that to herself?
And also, she really knows how much she loves Harry.
She deeply, deeply loves him.
Shes willing to fudge any of the facts to make that reality work for her.
You got to have a brief moment with a really young Anne Boleyn this season.
Gratifying?It was really depressing.
She was like 7.
I was like, Oh man, now I feel old.
Are you looking forward to perhaps approaching that part of her story next season?No!
Absolutely not because theyre going to pick some really fit 18-year-old model, so absolutely not.
