We chat with TheConsultalt stars natandalex, aimeecarrero, & brittanyogrady about what drew them to the PrimeVideo series and what their initial thoughts were when they read the pilot:
The Consultant introduces a mysterious man named Regus Pattoff, who steps in after the CEO of CompWare, a gaming app development company, is killed in a shocking turn of events. Pattoff introduces himself as the consultant and begins running the company, which confuses Elaine and Craig, who begin investigating who this man actually is. However, as new opportunities for success crop up, employees begin to support Pattoff's goals and strange ideas.
Brittany O'Grady: I was just so excited to enter the world of this story. I wanted to do it through Elaine's perspective. I loved her determination, I loved her passion for the company and her drive, and then her relationships with the people around her, and just the elusiveness of where she's going to go. So that's what made me really excited about doing this. And the cast. Brittany O'Grady: That was also a big bonus, I have to say.
And then, it was a lot of working with Tony and then Matt Shakman, who directed the pilot, who's incredible, in finding the tone. But also, it was just clear in the scripts. It was the kind of writing where you don't want to change a single comma. Tthe writing, it told you what it was, it did a lot of work for you. Whereas a lot of times, you do something with a less good script, you're kind of working it to make it work. You're maneuvering yourself and the words and things.
And also when it comes to Patti, she's someone who really thinks she knows who she is, and she's got a plan, and she's got a path, and it's been paved in concrete. And then things change. And I like that arc, of somebody who really thinks she knows all the answers, going from that to someone who, at the end just literally, her bags are packed, she's ready to go. She's starting again. And I just love that.
