Q) Jaha has been a man on a mission, finding the City of Light. From the season two finale to this season, the character changed quite a bit and I think she has evolved in a different way. Whatever it was, the description was just given to determine if I had what they wanted. Q) Did the description you were given originally stay true to the character or did it evolve?Ī) The audition was not the character at all. I think the description was a sweet neighbor – really vague.

So, I didn’t even know she was an artificial intelligence when I auditioned for it. Sometimes when you audition for a character they don’t really give you storylines attached to it, they just give you a vague description of who the character is and they hope you can convey that through the audition. Q) How did you come to work on “The 100?” Was it simply an audition or were you approached about it?Ī) It was an audition. They’ll find out when they watch this season. I think I’d rather leave that to the audience.

So, I don’t know if she would be classified as a hero or a villain. Do you see your character as a villain or just maybe a woman on a righteous mission?Ī) She is a computer program so artificial intelligence doesn’t have a conscience or an emotion. Q) Many characters on the show are shaded in gray. Q) Since ALIE is artificial intelligence and virtual reality is about connection, how is connection a running theme for this season?Ī) She has a connection with Jaha (Isaiah Washington) and that’s all I can give. You don’t know what she is taking and what she is giving so there is no way I can answer. There is nothing I can answer that won’t give something away. She is literally, from start to finish, a spoiler. What is ALIE willing to give in order to take?Ī) There is not a whole lot that I can say about the character. With “The 100,” trust is such a give and take relationship. Q) Aaron Ginsburg said not to trust your character.
