Oct 09, 2019  “Nancy Drew” is more mature than its source material, and is more grounded in reality than its CW sibling 'Riverdale.” LaToya Ferguson Oct 9, 2019 7:00 pm.

Nancy always thought that Carson and Katherine (Sara Canning) were her parents, but they actually took her in after a disgraced, depressed, and secretly pregnant Lucy gave birth and then took her own life. In discovering Lucy's journal with a suicide note, Nancy was able to clear her father of all murder charges with her testimony. But the victory was short-lived, as Nancy also discovered the biological link between her and Lucy, prompting Carson to tearfully confess that Lucy had called him and Katherine for help the night she died. HSU-TAYLOR: I also didn’t want the audience to feel like this was season 1 of Nancy Drew and they can move on to something else because a chapter is closed. We engineered it as a cliffhanger here, a new story is launched, but the ripple effect of the Agleaca ritual going poorly is the thing that they really have to deal with front and center for the next six episodes. How we address that is going to launch us into season 2 with a couple of different story engines that will become clear.

It’s not going to be a huge, cut-to-black cliffhanger kind of thing because I find that unsatisfying. It’s so irritating to have to wait for four months! So this will be like, “I can breathe over the summer but I definitely need to know how that turns out when it comes back in the fall.”. LANDAU: It comes from this idea that you have this girl who has been solving mysteries her whole life, but little did she know that she was the greatest mystery all along. That’s our interpretation of Nancy Drew, where she is very much at the center of the mystery that she has to solve. This felt like the most intricate, poetic way to do that with this character.

It’s also fresh — no one has done this before with Nancy Drew, and we’re doing it in a way that we’re respecting the canon and everything that came before. No matter who her parents really are, Nancy is still Nancy Drew. The show will never be called anything other than Nancy Drew. It just creates another layer of depth for the character moving forward as she starts to unwind who she is, what her identity is, and what that means for her relationship with her father.

How does this revelation affect Nancy’s relationship with Carson, knowing that he's been lying to her all her life, especially after she just worked so hard to exonerate him?HSU-TAYLOR: It’s going to be really hard on them. She doesn’t react well to betrayal or being in the dark about things.

Their relationship will never be the same. They might be able to find their way back to each other, but it’s going to take a while. Scott Wolf has known from day one that this was going to be the plan, and he’s been excited to play so many different iterations of Carson. Now Carson is freed from this load of this terrible secret, but he’s still holding himself accountable. Aside from her relationship with her father, how does Nancy handle this revelation moving forward?HSU-TAYLOR: She’ll have some distractions.

LaughsLANDAU: There’s going to be some things that move into her life now that keep her pretty busy, which is probably good after you realize you’re not who you thought you were your entire life. Her reality has been shaken.

But a lot is going to start happening that is going to take her attention as she continues to grapple with her identity in the last chapter of season 1 as she moves into the next phase of this case.

Has been around for 90 years. Technically, the character is probably olderthan your mom and/or your grandma, so she’s seen a lot during her time on thisplanet.
