Actress's Wild Ride Back to 'The Paper' Character
8 Sep
Summary
- Actress feared inability to reprise her neurotic character.
- Her costume helped her reconnect with the role.
- The Paper's newsroom is thriving after awards.
Sabrina Impacciatore experienced significant apprehension returning for season 2 of The Paper, a Peacock series premiering September 9th. Unlike her initial fears of making it onto the show in season 1, her anxiety for the second season centered on reclaiming the character of Esmeralda, a hot-headed web editor.
Impacciatore admitted to being scared she wouldn't be able to play the manipulative and nasty character again. However, upon receiving her Esmeralda costume, including a tight skirt and golden high heels, she felt an immediate return to the character, referring to her as a 'crazy twin.'
The new season of The Paper, which follows the Toledo Truth Teller staff, finds the newsroom having achieved success at the Ohio Journalism Awards. While Esmeralda navigates her place within the team, other reporters are maturing, and editor-in-chief Ned is seeking a journalistic crusade and exploring his connection with Mare.
