Ripple comes out on
@netflix today Dec 3. I play Claire who loves Nate and Anna. The rest you’ll have to just (possibly) see. Yea. Beyond this being one of those lifetime/all time impeccable assemblies of people - from the cast to the crew to the legs on the ground - something that made this extra special for me was getting to learn some ASL with the help of ice fisher extraordinaire
@amandaricher ,
@cdesloges ,
@tslisto @jenrl_xoxo , and multiple other interpreters who joined us on set. I have much more to learn but I was honoured to get to engage with members of the deaf community, most of all my TV daughter Hazel whose eyes and heart pierce my soul, and who even granted me my own sign name on our very last block.
I could tell you about how great it was to shoot this, how I felt dream-scenario-supported on set, continually inspired by these amazing actors and directors, or how each new script I read moved me to tears, but I guess I wanted to tell you how it feels when my real life son signs me “I love you” or “more” or “thirsty”, and how it too, is but a small ripple effect of something inherently sacred and lovely and nice.
@ianmharding thanks for being such a tolerable scene partner and always making sure I had juice boxes on hand, and
@goodnewsgia +
@jonikat thanks for dreaming Claire (and this show) into existence. Enjoy the ride everybody. All of us sure did love making this.
