Laurie Holden Talks With AMC’s Walking Dead Blog

AMC’s Walking Dead Blog got a chance to sit down with Laurie Holden.  In the interview Holden talks about Andrea becoming a stronger character, the scene in Episode 6 where Shane and Andrea try to find Sophia, and the civil rights of zombies, among other things.

Q: Last season Andrea was an emotional wreck. Have you enjoyed the shift in her character this season?

A: I really love what they’ve done with my character. Last year was awful! All I did as Andrea was cry the whole summer. She was such a sobbing, bereft, suicidal person and now she’s a warrior. I am a tomboy and I love being with the boys and shooting guns and stuff. There was more acting required to be, like, scared of zombies — it’s more natural for me on the show now.

Q: Andrea and Shane get ambushed on a cul-de-sac in Episode 6 this season. Was it fun to get out into the suburbs?

A: I love the dynamics of the scene — we go from being upset about not finding Sophia to the zombies coming. Andrea freaks out and the gun misfires and then she really finds her own strength.

Q: Did you have to practice your killer stare?

A: It’s a Zen-like calm that I work on, a state where you don’t think. Athletes, or golfers for example, they get in this state. It’s organic and it’s instantaneous — there’s no nerves or pressure or over-thinking. That’s Andrea with a gun. And that’s me when I’m swimming.
