The creator Emilia di Girolamo, in this regard, said: “Thanks for all the overwhelming messages. It was hard to process the news that there won’t be a second season of Inspector Gamache. Thanks to everyone who watched and supported the series. It meant so much to me to know that this show engaged such a huge global audience. As an indigenous actress, I never thought I would have the opportunity to star in a series like this. It was impressive. Our stories are relevant and this series has demonstrated that audiences, regardless of history, are hungry for Indigenous content.”
PENN BADGLEY EXPLAINS WHY HE’D CONSIDERED ABOUT QUITING ACTING: ‘I FEEL LIKE AN OBJECT’
It seems that Penn Badgley has seriously considered giving up acting, because he didn’t accept being treated like an object by viewers and the film industry. The protagonist of You has in fact stated:
“I’ve felt very uncomfortable with a lot of things I’ve had to do throughout my career. It doesn’t always have to be something sexual. It’s just that, as an actor, you become an object. And this is largely the experience of women. But it must be said that the experience is the same for men too, even if the dynamic that develops for women and men is different. (…) I’ve always thought about it. So again, none of these thoughts are new to me, to be honest. I am painfully aware of these challenges that especially women in our industry have been facing for some time. I publicly said that there were some moments where I wondered if I could continue acting or not. That’s one of the reasons.”
