School Spirits Season 3: Kristian Ventura on Simon’s Evolution, Acting Craft & Career Path

Описание: Kristian Ventura joins Collider Forces to break down Simon’s shocking Season 2 finale twist and what’s going down in School Spirits Season 3 thus far.

As Simon becomes trapped behind the veil of Split River High — with a ticking clock working against him — Ventura dives deep into the character’s evolution, his shifting alliances, and why Simon might be a better liar than we ever realized.

Kristian Ventura’s Simon has always had his hands full on Paramount+’s School Spirits. As the only living character who could see Maddie (Peyton List), he took on a considerable amount of responsibility while trying to solve the mystery of her disappearance. And then, even after discovering what happened to her, he had to meet the challenge of figuring out how to reunite her spirit with her body. By the end of Season 2, he and the others pull it off, but at his expense. In the Season 2 finale, it’s revealed that now Simon is trapped behind the vale of Split River High. Complicating matters further, Simon’s predicament involves an especially intense ticking clock. Unlike Maddie, he’s alive on the other side, and being there is taking a toll on him.

With School Spirits Season 3 well underway, Ventura visited the Collider Forces studio for a long-form conversation about the show and his journey to it. He told the shocking story of how he first decided to become an actor, revealed what it was like to be in the middle of a bidding war between talent agencies, and then went into detail on adjusting to Simon’s wholly different situation in School Spirits Season 3.
