Ransom Canyon's Minka Kelly and Josh Duhamel, the stars of the Netflix drama, recently opened up about their characters' journey in Season 2 and their hopes for Season 3. The show's main characters, Quinn O'Grady and Staten Kirkland, finally got together after two seasons of longing, heartbreak, and hopeful moments. The will-they-won't-they dynamic is no more, and the actors are thrilled.
In an interview with Decider, Duhamel expressed his thoughts on the relationship's development, stating, 'I think it was time. You can only do the will-they-won't-they for so long before you have to pay it off.' He believes they did the perfect amount of it, as it always felt like there was a reason for it, whether it was fate or their own unforced or forced errors. Kelly, on the other hand, is excited to explore what it's like to start a life with someone, as their characters' lives have been marked by constant starts and stops.
The actors also discussed their experiences working with guest stars like Patricia Clarkson and Steve Howey. Clarkson, who played Quinn's mom, Claire, brought a lot of energy and fun to the set, while Howey, who played Staten's little brother, Levi, was a great scene partner. The music festival storyline, featuring Thomas Rhett and Jordan Davis, was also a highlight for the cast.
When asked about their hopes for Season 3, Kelly and Duhamel both expressed excitement about exploring the messiness of building a life together. They want to see how their characters handle domestic day-to-day life and even suggested having a baby! The actors also reflected on their careers and the 20th anniversary of the Friday Night Lights premiere, feeling grateful and lucky to still be doing what they love.
In conclusion, the interview highlights the actors' passion for their characters and their excitement for the show's future. With Season 3 in the works, fans can expect to see more of the complex and evolving relationships in Ransom Canyon, as the actors continue to bring their characters to life with depth and authenticity.
