Katie Lowes Discusses Scandal Cast Members Joining The Hunting Wives: Bellamy Young, Jeff Perry, and George Newbern Considered for Roles
Katie Lowes, known for her role in Scandal, shared her thoughts on potential Scandal cast members joining The Hunting Wives. She suggested Bellamy Young would be a great fit for the show, portraying a Southern belle character. Lowes also discussed the possibility of other Scandal actors like Jeff Perry and George Newbern joining the series, highlighting their versatility.
The Hunting Wives, a show that premiered in July, revolves around Sophie, played by Brittany Snow, who becomes entangled in the lives of socialite Margo Banks, portrayed by Malin Åkerman. The series delves into the dark secrets of Margo's housewives, leading to a shocking murder where Sophie becomes the prime suspect. In the original novel by May Cobb, Lowes' character, Jill, was the killer, but the show took a different direction by killing her off before the finale.
Lowes embraced the challenge of portraying Jill and bringing her own interpretation to the character. She mentioned the initial confusion between the book version of Jill and the show's adaptation, emphasizing the need to focus solely on the TV series' narrative. Despite knowing Jill's fate in advance, Lowes enjoyed exploring the unhinged aspects of her character and delivering a memorable performance.
The Hunting Wives can be streamed on Netflix, offering viewers a thrilling and suspenseful storyline. With the potential for Scandal cast members to join the show, fans can anticipate exciting new dynamics and performances in future seasons.
