Proper now on Legal Minds: Evolution, we might use one thing a bit extra light-hearted … like, say, sisterly drama? In any case, the Paramount+ drama launched the existence of a sister for Prentiss (Paget Brewster) on the finish of final season — stunning even Brewster herself, as she informed us — and we have now but to listen to about her once more, three episodes into the present one. Once we introduced that up with Brewster at the start of this season, she shared her hopes that we do see that character sooner or later.
Brewster was the one to counsel the spin on it that recommended “she has an issue together with her sister as a result of battle is story,” she defined to TV Insider. “As a result of I need somebody to play my sister in order that we will get some household concerned and have it’s a contentious relationship. Now, who’s the sister? The place is she? I don’t know. They haven’t informed me they’re writing it. They may be making me a candy, candy little shock that I’m going to search out out subsequent season.” (Legal Minds: Evolution was renewed for Season 19 forward of the premiere.)
So, does Brewster have any dream casting in thoughts? “I hadn’t even considered that,” she admitted. “Now I’m going to consider it.”
Elsewhere on the extra private entrance for the BAU (Behavioral Evaluation Unit), Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness) and Tyler (RJ Hatanaka) have settled into an amicable working relationship after a rocky romance.
“It’s bizarre,” admitted Vangsness. “You understand when your therapist has drilled sufficient stuff in you that you just’re like, ‘I can’t imagine I dated them, I can’t imagine they violated these boundaries’? This was a bit of like that, but additionally she’s over it however not completely over it. You’re employed with the particular person and so they’re proper there on a regular basis and you continue to need to be sure that, ‘Is my lipstick on?’ That’s that recheck on a regular basis.”
She’d fairly not play “a clear break,” which is what we see with these two. “It’s actual, her emotions, however I additionally suppose that they’re fluid, and on the finish of the day, we have now these very large issues that we’re coping with. So that you let it go and cope with these issues.”
There’s not a lot time usually for something associated to Garcia’s love life this season (there’s all the time what might have been/might nonetheless be with Adam Rodriguez‘s Luke). “It’s an intense season,” mentioned Vangsness. “It’s 10 episodes. I believe we take what we will get. I believe we make up tales exterior of what’s occurring in entrance of you. I believe that there’s a lot occurring and the season earlier than was all about Garcia sort of being extra positive of herself. Now, she’s attempting to place romance in her friendship and friendship in her romance. And he or she’s working so much, so there’s not a variety of time for issues. However she’s Garcia, she’ll get in some flirting wherever she will.”
