Dear Evan Hansen Explained: Kaitlyn Dever on Zoe Murphy’s Key Core Quality

Описание: Everyone in Dear Evan Hansen struggles with immense challenges, but Zoe Murphy’s (Kaitlyn Dever) experience comes across as especially complex — yes, due to the script and source material, but also thanks to the humanity and nuance Dever brings to the role.

Dear Evan Hansen brings the Tony Award winning musical to the big screen with Ben Platt returning as the title character, a high school student struggling with anxiety and loneliness. Evan’s therapist suggests he write letters to himself, but one day, one of Evan’s letters ends up in the wrong hands, the school bully's, Connor Murphy (Colton Ryan). Soon after, Connor takes his own life and when Connor’s mother (Amy Adams) finds the letter, she assumes Connor wrote it to Evan and that they were friends. In an effort to offer Connor’s family some solace amidst their grief, Evan perpetuates this misunderstanding.

As Connor’s sister, Dever must convey the character’s grief over her loss, but she's also got to incorporate the confusion connected to the possibility that there was a whole side to her brother that she knew nothing about and her feeling for Evan as he becomes a bigger part of her family as well. While on Collider Ladies Night, I asked Dever about managing all of those emotions at once. Hear all about it in this clip!
