play00:59

Topic right now Elizabeth's new hair

play01:03

what inspired this big change I really

play01:06

thought you were going to lead with

play01:07

romance but this is great let's just

play01:09

we're building up we're building up

play01:11

she's so happy right

play01:13

now what okay well there was a lot of

play01:17

chatter the writers were kind of trying

play01:19

to figure out what's a good way to

play01:22

visually illustrate this new chapter in

play01:24

Elizabeth's life her desire for some

play01:27

kind of change and there was talk of

play01:29

maybe redecorating the roow house but I

play01:33

was really ready for a little bit of

play01:35

something different having rocked that

play01:38

long hairstyle for some time and um and

play01:42

luckily everyone was on board and our

play01:44

hair stylist Jill was excited to make it

play01:47

happen and I think Rosemary was excited

play01:49

to make it happen on

play01:51

screen we made a change we went for it

play01:54

Pascal did you get to have some fun with

play01:56

some scissors I did but honestly it was

play01:59

a bit of

play02:00

uh trick camera work I didn't actually

play02:04

get to really dive in there like I was

play02:06

hoping

play02:07

to so aggressive coming at me with the

play02:11

scissors

play02:13

yeah I know Rosemary thinks it's a

play02:15

brilliant idea based off of the trailer

play02:17

that we have out right now I can't wait

play02:18

to see how that moment all goes down and

play02:21

I'm particularly excited to see how the

play02:24

rest of the folks in the town respond to

play02:27

Elizabeth debuting this new look now if

play02:30

we back up to the season 10 finale I

play02:32

think it's fair to say that Elizabeth

play02:34

and Nathan kind of all but confirmed

play02:37

their feelings for one another so can

play02:39

you catch me up Ain and tell me how are

play02:41

Elizabeth and Nathan doing at the

play02:43

beginning of season

play02:44

11 well we kind of have two Beginnings

play02:48

to season 11 we have um the very start

play02:52

of episode one which picks up right

play02:54

where we left off at the end of season

play02:56

10 um Bill and Nathan and elzabeth ride

play03:00

off on their horses up the hill and then

play03:01

we ride back into town on those same

play03:03

horses ready to continue that

play03:05

conversation so it's nice to get to

play03:07

explore that moment after the big news

play03:10

about Lucas hits um and then we Flash

play03:15

Forward a little bit of time the

play03:18

investigation has happened Lucas has had

play03:20

some time to heal and um Nathan is

play03:24

riding back into Hope Valley and

play03:27

Elizabeth sees him approach and I think

play03:30

there

play03:32

is um a sense

play03:35

of wow they've really missed each other

play03:38

but neither one is totally certain that

play03:40

the other one still has feelings for

play03:42

them so it's a real dance and a slow

play03:46

burn as the season

play03:47

progresses

play03:49

yeah uh you mentioned the name Lucas

play03:52

several times just now and of course we

play03:54

have so much love for this Lucas buard

play03:56

character he is so wonderful and so

play03:59

Charming and first of all we're hoping

play04:01

that he's okay can you assure us that

play04:03

he's going to be okay and we're going to

play04:04

see him in this season 11

play04:06

premere

play04:09

yes I just gotta ask the obvious so

play04:12

Lucas is okay how is he doing

play04:15

emotionally knowing that his engagement

play04:17

was called off he might catch a glimpse

play04:19

of Elizabeth hanging out with Nathan

play04:20

Nathan hanging out with

play04:22

Elizabeth oh man you're really you're

play04:24

really getting ahead of yourself here

play04:25

like we just got to get him healed and

play04:27

on his feet first okay so he's not even

play04:30

thinking about this at

play04:31

first I I can't speak to exactly what

play04:34

Lucas is thinking about but I will say I

play04:37

think his first order of business is

play04:39

getting out of his hospital bed and

play04:40

getting back to um being Governor which

play04:43

is like a huge responsibility for him uh

play04:46

and then as the season progresses we see

play04:49

how the dynamic has shifted between

play04:51

Elizabeth and Lucas kind of moving into

play04:54

this um friendship that that is still

play04:58

very much there because

play05:00

they they care for each other and

play05:01

respect each other um and then seeing

play05:04

the ways that Elizabeth and Nathan might

play05:07

proceed with a little more caution out

play05:09

of respect for

play05:11

Lucas okay so to believe we were gonna

play05:14

have puffball

play05:17

questions what's going on here come on

play05:20

this is not a softball game we're are

play05:23

hting itall you know like little

play05:26

fluffies like a Fluff piece yeah

play05:30

what's your favorite color we want I

play05:33

mean Ain wasn't supposed to be sweating

play05:34

under her arms in the first two or three

play05:37

minutes yeah listen I have an obligation

play05:40

to a group of people you might be

play05:41

familiar with they're called the hardies

play05:44

they are so invested and so ride or die

play05:46

for this show that is my obligation to

play05:48

ask the important questions Eric my

play05:51

final question for you we discussed hair

play05:53

we discussed a little romance my other

play05:55

favorite thing specifically about the

play05:56

Elizabeth character are children whether

11 so many sweet tender moments with the

play06:12

kids and I'm sure Pascal and cin will be

play06:15

able to speak to that as well um but

play06:17

some of the things that I think our

play06:19

viewers will really enjoy are the Easter

play06:22

episode there's a lot of fun for the

play06:25

kids and um there's also there's a real

play06:29

sweetness to little Jack reaching an age

play06:31

where he wants to start coming to the

play06:34

classroom and getting to hang out with

play06:36

his mom as a teacher and see what that's

play06:38

like so you know getting to see little

play06:41

Jack mature and reach those Milestones

play06:44

was very

play06:45

sweet I cannot wait to see all of that

play06:48

what a great segue into cin and Pascal

play06:52

after so many seasons of us having

play06:54

conversations of when will the cters

play06:57

receive the blessing of becoming parents

play07:00

we got to see that happen in season 10

play07:02

play07:04

play07:06

play07:09

play07:20

our little Goldie is just the sweetest

play07:23

little thing in the world and she's so

play07:26

happy and fun to be around

play07:30

and she's not talking well I mean she

play07:32

started talking actually this season but

play07:34

she was um off off camera on camera

play07:37

she's not really talking but she does a

play07:41

lot of like coming to C or coming to I

play07:43

and just being

play07:46

like and she's like so cute like she's

play07:49

really just cute as a button I I I don't

play07:53

know how we got so lucky with her yeah

play07:55

she's a real sweetheart on the first day

play07:57

I mean I really pushed for this baby

play07:59

thing going back several years I really

play08:01

was at the Forefront of this but on our

play08:04

first couple of days it did not look

play08:08

great oh what do you mean tell me she

play08:10

was teething poor thing yeah she was

play08:13

teething and it and we didn't we weren't

play08:15

sure if it was going to work out and we

play08:17

didn't have we hadn't figured out how to

play08:18

work with her yet and what she would

play08:20

like and we didn't get her to trust us

play08:22

yet and uh but then by the second

play08:25

episode she was she was all over us and

play08:28

it was just a lot of fun and then just

play08:30

all about discovering the kind of things

play08:32

that she wants to do and put her in

play08:34

positions where she's happy and then try

play08:37

and get that on camera she's oh my

play08:42

such so it's a huge milestone in any

play08:45

person's life obviously when they become

play08:47

a parent but I know that Lee and

play08:49

rosemary are so entrenched in this town

play08:52

they've got so many responsibilities how

play08:54

are they going to balance and manage

play08:56

everything that comes with new

play08:57

Parenthood while they are running

play08:59

multiple

play09:01

businesses I think they do a great examp

play09:03

set a great example

play09:06

for bringing the baby into the fold of

play09:10

their life and so there's multiple

play09:12

scenes where Goldie's hanging out with

play09:15

us in cters like in the office and we're

play09:18

doing work and we've got the baby and um

play09:22

and then there's moments where we're at

play09:24

home with her or like working on stuff

play09:26

at home with her and uh you know I

play09:30

actually think uh Lee and rosemary

play09:32

didn't fumble as much as I maybe thought

play09:34

they were going to with transitioning

play09:37

into being new parents like they've

play09:39

really tried to incorporate her into

play09:41

their life and uh it's been a lot of

play09:45

fun I was actually hoping for more

play09:48

fumbling when they first when we first

play09:50

got this in I was thinking this is a

play09:51

great opportunity for all sorts of fun

play09:54

and I I still think there's a lot of

play09:56

time to play with that kind of stuff but

play09:58

um having being a parent myself and we

play10:02

just finished our spring break in the

play10:04

house is chaos and it's just every part

play10:07

of your life is affected every single

play10:09

day I feel like a stress bomb half the

play10:11

time and I think it's also like that on

play10:14

set with a baby I feel like a stress but

play10:16

I'm trying to get it to work but we got

play10:19

really lucky Pascal was involved in in

play10:22

getting a chance to choose the kid and

play10:24

and she's just she's just a sweetheart

play10:26

she really is yeah okay so we're going

play10:29

to see hopefully lots of cute Goldie

play10:31

moments in season 11 but as far as

play10:34

career is concerned we've got the valley

play10:36

voice we've got the saloon we've got the

play10:39

mill what am I leaving out I feel like

play10:41

these two people have a hand in

play10:43

everything in Hope Valley well Lee

play10:46

really turns it up a few notches this

play10:47

season I mean what aren't you involved

play10:49

in I feel like you're involved in

play10:51

everything this season I think when you

play10:52

when you when you run the risk of when

play10:54

play10:58

play11:10

and joy okay what can you tell me in

play11:13

play11:16

gonna face in terms of their careers and

play11:18

I don't know maybe even elevating their

play11:20

careers this

play11:21

season well I think Rosemary's biggest

play11:24

challenge this year is she's kind of

play11:26

some investigative journalism there's a

play11:32

big mystery hanging over the entire

play11:34

yes is everybody a hard

play12:08

time what what is that Dynamic like Jack

play12:11

getting to team up with Pascal and

play12:13

seeing the two of your characters kind

play12:15

of work in tandem to solve this

play12:18

mystery you know we had to approach it I

play12:21

think both of us would agree um that we

play12:24

kind of had to experience one another

play12:26

let the characters sort of experience

play12:28

one another because you know Rosemary

play12:31

Pascal her character is so pushy you

play12:34

know and so driven and Bill is by the

play12:37

book right it's like we don't have we

play12:40

don't have lit newspaper people involved

play12:43

in criminal cases you know and so it was

play12:46

that whole process I think that

play12:48

um really gave us the opportunity to

play12:52

kind of get to know each other on a

play12:54

different level as people and actors and

play12:56

also let the characters figure out who

play12:58

we are here in terms of moving forward

play13:01

and there were some real crucial points

play13:03

that we you know specifically became a

play13:06

team together so you know those moments

play13:08

are important to justify and make it

play13:11

believable you know that these two would

play13:13

be working together and and it was a lot

play13:15

of fun it was it was

play13:16

fantastic it's not just the character

play13:18

Rosary can win anybody over even Bill

play13:22

Avery

play13:24

tell what did you say cevin I was going

play13:26

to say it's not just the character

play13:27

that's bushy by the way

play13:30

oh so

play13:32

bad you leave my beloved Pascal alone

play13:35

yeah that's

play13:37

right I'm beloved I say having seen

play13:40

every episode of season 11 it is so much

play13:44

fun seeing Rosemary and Bill play this

play13:47

like buddy cop thing together your

play13:50

chemistry together is so like delightful

play13:53

and bubbly and unexpected and comical

play13:56

and I think because Rosemary and Bill

play13:58

haven't had a ton to do together over

play14:00

the years seeing that pairing is is just

play14:03

going to be super fun for the fans I

play14:05

think they're really gonna like it I was

play14:07

just gonna eron I'm so glad you said

play14:09

that because in my brain I obviously

play14:10

know there's so many great Rosemary

play14:12

Elizabeth scenes there's so many Bill

play14:14

and Elizabeth scenes obviously Rosemary

play14:16

and Lee scenes I'm it's there's not a

play14:18

ton coming to mind where Bill and

play14:20

rosemary cross paths so as human beings

play14:23

getting to work together a lot seemingly

play14:25

in season 11 Jack how do you describe

play14:28

that well first of all you've got to you

play14:31

know be open-minded because you know

play14:34

Pascal plays her character very

play14:37

theatrical right and Bill is as I said

play14:40

very rigid I would call that character

play14:43

and you know tur so it's sort of a I

play14:47

think both for me personally and as an

play14:49

actor to approach it open-mindedly and

play14:51

let the material kind of take take place

play14:54

and let it be what it's supposed to be

play14:56

and then we really sort of got to know

play14:58

one another I think on a deeper level as

play15:00

people and actors and for me it was it

play15:04

was then finding the comedy out of that

play15:06

and also finding the truth out of that

play15:08

and both of them be driven to the truth

play15:10

and then including Nathan and then uh

play15:13

you know it became a process not only as

play15:16

actors but also as as uh friends

play15:20

collaborating on the material because we

play15:22

collaborated a lot on trying to keep it

play15:24

you know how are we going to find the

play15:26

truth here how are we going to work this

play15:27

dialogue to make it believable

play15:29

right and and I think that was really

play15:31

our focus and so whatever comes out of

play15:34

that you know was was G came out of the

play15:36

process of Pascal and I really

play15:38

collaborating a lot together Pascal how

play15:41

do you feel getting to share the screen

play15:43

so much with Mr

play15:44

Wagner well you know um

play15:51

no no it was

play15:53

awesome Aaron reached out to me when

play15:58

stories were being broken and she said

play15:59

so they're they're looking at this

play16:01

pairing of Rosemary and Bill and right

play16:04

away I was like amazing I could see the

play16:09

comedy I could see the banter I could

play16:11

see how it would pop on screen because

play16:14

they're such opposite extremes their

play16:18

energy the way they approach the town

play16:21

and yet they they have this common like

play16:25

search for truth and search for uh uh

play16:29

justice but in such totally different

play16:32

ways and I think anytime you can have a

play16:35

pairing of opposites in in drama in

play16:39

comedy it's gold and so I could see that

play16:43

instantly and uh and then it delivered

play16:46

when each scene that we were getting

play16:49

especially in the first few episodes

play16:51

where you see Bill's reticence to to

play16:56

bring Rosemary in and trust her and her

play16:59

growing frustration with that uh it's

play17:03

very in my opin it's very funny it's

play17:05

very funny to see that kind of banter

play17:07

and it's very quick both of them are

play17:09

very smart and uh it kind of goes back

play17:12

and forth but but Rosemary talks so fast

play17:15

that I think she kind of almost talks

play17:16

circles around Bill and he kind of is

play17:18

like wait what just happened what just

play17:20

happened and so that's a funny Dynamic

play17:23

and so I I just thought it was amazing

play17:25

it ended up being amazing but I could

play17:27

see that it was going to be fantastic

play17:29

right from the GetGo I cannot wait to

play17:32

watch these buddy cop scenes moments

play17:34

play out um Jack I want to ask you a

play17:37

question about your character Bill he's

play17:39

unique in in many ways but he's unique

play17:41

in that he's very close with Elizabeth

play17:45

he obviously works with Nathan and then

play17:48

he's got the job of protecting the

play17:52

governor we know that those three are

play17:55

going to seemingly have a complicated

play17:57

dynamic in season 11

play17:59

how does Bill navigate all of that I

play18:03

think it was important uh to kind of

play18:06

back up ER what she was saying at the

play18:07

beginning because Bill is with Elizabeth

play18:10

uh in the opening episode when it comes

play18:13

to dealing with Lucas and what's

play18:15

happened to him and visiting him and

play18:18

basically peeling that onion back of

play18:20

what this is going to look like now in

play18:22

terms of what's happened to him um so I

play18:26

think the word is respectful I think uh

play18:28

there's no secret at all as to the fan

play18:31

base for uh Kevin McGary and Chris MCN

play18:35

okay Lucas and Nathan and I think it's

play18:38

really respectful and it's done

play18:40

Tastefully how that these characters now

play18:43

are going to find themselves who who

play18:45

they're going to be now and at the end

play18:46

of season remember at the end of season

play18:48

Lucas was firmly committed on this

play18:51

governorship and you know that's what

play18:53

has to unfold for that character right

play18:55

that he is two feet in this job and how

play19:00

it unfolds then where his his actual

play19:03

when he does actually return to Hope

play19:05

Valley how that's done and how it's

play19:08

played out not to repeat a triangle

play19:11

because I think everybody we lived that

play19:14

but yet there's still residual you know

play19:16

there's

play19:17

leftover feelings uh when something like

play19:20

this happens you know an engagement when

play19:22

that's broken off and you can't move too

play19:24

fast and at the same time you've got to

play19:27

honor what was and I I think it's done

play19:29

beautifully I think Aaron plays it well

play19:31

both the guys play it fantastic and I

play19:34

also want to talk about I've seen some

play19:36

episodes

play19:39

Goldie Pascal and and Cavin with Goldie

play19:44

I mean these I sit there and my mouth

play19:46

opens you guys have such a great

play19:47

relationship with that baby it's

play19:50

unbelievable and and Aaron with little

play19:52

Jack these kids steal the show it's it's

play19:54

fantastic that was very sweet um you

play19:57

know we we talked about a little bit of

play19:59

romance with Elizabeth and Nathan and

play20:01

Lucas and then of course obviously Lee

play20:03

and rosemary they're our endgame couple

play20:05

they're my endgame couple when is my

play20:08

buddy Bill gonna find some romance we

play20:11

sort of toyed with that idea with meline

play20:13

last season is his heart open to romance

play20:16

again maybe in season 11 yeah you know

play20:19

this season it would be open to it but

play20:21

he is absolutely committed to defending

play20:24

this town and finding out the truth and

play20:27

that is his super objective for season

play20:29

11 and he's got this little companion

play20:32

that's just yapping away the whole time

play20:34

this there's only room for one woman in

play20:36

Bill's

play20:38

like great answer there you go jedra

play20:41

there's one woman anybody that looked at

play20:43

me Rosemary is like bill bill

play20:47

bill he can't be in places it was oh

play20:50

that was well played well played Pascal

play20:53

I love that before we wrap up since this

play20:56
