Quotes[edit | edit source]

"I think for me, it’s the costume and the makeup. I think that’s when I fully feel like I am the character because beforehand, the preparation that you do or the research that you do or the backstory that you do, that’s all well and good, but then to actually have the other layers come together. It also just brings you closer to the heads of department and to the crew because they’ve all had a hand in making that."
― Markella Kavenagh, Collider
"She’s not specifically a canon character, but obviously, there are Harfoots in the Legendarium."
― Markella Kavenagh, Sydney Morning Herald
