Christina Radish is the Senior Entertainment Reporter at Collider. Having worked at Collider for over a decade (since 2009), her primary focus is on film and television interviews with talent both in front of and behind the camera.
The Big Picture In the ‘Fire Starter” episode of the CBS series FBI: International, Special Agent Cameron Vo , who is still adjusting to her recent promotion, puts her previous sexual assault advocacy experience from her Army days to use on the Fly Team’s current case. After an American college student staying at a hostel in Prague tries to report an attack but is instead dismissed by local police, Vo steps in to ensure the victim gets justice and the accused cannot hurt anyone else.
VINESSA VIDOTTO: I feel like she has to grow up. It wasn’t a smooth transition into Supervisory Relief. It was like, “Bam, here you go!” It was intense. Even as an actor, it was stretching my range, and it wasn’t simple to do. I tried to tell myself, “Okay, just pretend you’re auditioning for this character, and this character already has this power and this position.” I just simply could not play it like that because it’s Vo and I know it’s Vo. I know her past, for the past two years.
VIDOTTO: Oh, my gosh, yes! It’s been such an interesting journey, as an actor. There are such dualities. Two opposing ideas can be held in the same place, and that’s been mind-boggling to me. Sometimes they want us to act angry like a man, but as women, we portray anger in a very different way, in a more emotional way. When they want us to get angry, they want us to do the male version, but that may not play well or look truthful.
VIDOTTO: As you were asking me that question, I leaned to one side. And then, when you finished your question, I balanced out. That was so weird. I think it depends. Some days, based on our menstrual cycle as women, I’m more tender and easily understanding and soft. And then, other days, I am more of a badass and straightforward and I bring out my quarter-German side. It’s a balance. It’s fun. I’ve said it since Season 1, Vo is just a more resilient version of me.
VIDOTTO: He just has pure confidence. You believe that he has the right answers, and he’s going to lead us to victory. Right now, Vo is growing into it. When she calls the shots, I’m like, “I don’t know, it could go well, or we could be in danger by the end of the episode.” She’s trying her best. Just acting alongside him, there’s this assurance that he has and this natural leadership. Men have their way of being assertive and aggressive.
