“I wanted to pay homage to all of the unsung heroes of the 1920s, the Black heroes especially. The Bessie Smith’s, the Ma Rainey’s, and just really give them some shine through this character.” She also shared that Alberta was inspired by her own grandmother’s storytelling ability. “My grandma Euna is that girl that always has the stories. She’ll say ‘oh, I remember this one time in Jamaica…’ and I think ‘oh God, where are we going with this? We’ve got company!” she laughed. “Alberta is a star in her own right, in her own mind, but also has these moments of poignancy, like when she’s trying to get Hetty to vote. I definitely think this character is a dream role. She’s stretched me in so many ways as an actor and I’m so excited for the shenanigans we have in store for season two.”
Danielle also spoke about how unified the cast experience was as it was the first series regular roles for the majority of the ensemble cast, and none of them lived in Montreal, their filming location, so they got to know each other during the process. “None of us were in New York or LA with our families. We really got to learn each other's strengths and weaknesses in comedy, what makes people cry-laugh, I’m always the one who ends up cry-laughing. I break every time Devan [Chandler-Long] utters a line. He is so funny as Thor-finn. It’s just been a magical experience and we all know it’s special. That doesn’t necessarily happen on every TV sets and with ensembles. No one has an attitude, everyone is so gracious, so kind, so ready for the work.”
Season one of Ghosts is available to stream on Paramount+
