So we’re nearing the end of the series, do you think there’s going to be any resolution for Collins or Charlotte? Anything unexpected going to happen? Is he going to visit his girlfriend in Canada? Any clues to that?
I just sent a tweet out about that today. Did you see that?
Yes I think I did actually.
The fans sort of loved that. (Laughs) Yes, I want them to really send me to Winnipeg someday. I think there needs to be a Mr. Collins goes to Winnipeg and you see his fiancée and they go to a hockey game (laughs).
So a whole spinoff series?
Yes, I would love it. I would really love it. I feel like I have a lot more to give with Mr. Collins’ character and there’s a lot more I can explore to explore as him. If they ever to make some more Collins stuff, I would love it. I would love to go to Winnipeg, which is secretly a place that I do want to go to.
How is the relationship on set between you and Julia? You and Ashley?
It’s terrific. I think that’s one of the reasons that this show is so successful. We not only can act well together but we all like each other and that’s pretty cool. There’s a whole bunch of us too. We really do legitimately all like each other. It really helps when you’re doing a scene. It makes your day much better as when you’re not on camera, you’re just hanging out with each other. So hanging out with people you want to be around is great and I want to be around all of them. They’re just great people.
What is your favorite moment from The Lizzie Bennet Diaries?
My favorite episode is “Lydia v. Mr. Collins”. It’s the one time I got to do an episode with Mary Kate. I think the dynamic between Mr. Collins and Lydia was so funny. You put those two characters next to each other and it was just awkward. I think that was really a lot of fun. And the other moment that stands out was the proposal scene, both of them, where I cut the envelopes and they keep getting bigger. I think that was really well done in terms of modernizing it. That was done really well and that was a lot of fun for me.
I know you did School of Thrones with Mary Kate, but do you have any other projects in the works with your Lizzie Bennet Diaries cast members?
Nothing right now with them. I would love to. School of Thrones right now, I hope we get to shoot some more. I think that I will obviously work with these people again. I have my own YouTube channel so who knows? Maybe they’ll come on and do some stuff there. I’m sure they will. Again, no definitive plans right now.
What did you think of Thursday’s episode?
I tweeted this morning that I heard lots of squealing and that was my alarm clock today. Everyone woke me up with their squealing. That’s my reaction. This is a moment that has been building and the fandom’s been waiting for so long. It was kind of fun to watch this morning and see the reaction. It really cracked me up. It was very enjoyable to watch everyone freak out.
I was one of those people.
Did you cry?
I didn’t cry but I was hyperventilating which I think was a better reaction.
Did you see I texted Ashley this morning and she posted it on Instagram and I saw it on Tumblr. I texted her all capital letters, “OMG, DYING, FLAIL”.
I did see that. That was pretty epic. Something I think that the fandom will continue to freak out about.
I love it. I’m telling you the fans of the LBD are the best fans ever. I don’t know that I will ever have a show that I’m on where there’s better fans. I’m serious. But hopefully they’ll continue on and follow me in whatever else I do, in YouTube they follow me there which is so cool. They’re so terrific.
