Dare Me creator and star talk revealing the darker reality of cheerleading in new USA drama
The show is not about cheerleading. It is a beautiful backdrop of the series and very poetic in the way it demonstrates the relationships the girls have to themselves and it is a vehicle for understanding those characters more deeply. The show is more interested in the athleticism — and the militant nature of that kind of athleticism — than it is about cheerleading and that’s why the show feels so different than other things that have focused on the more peppy side of cheer.
Since pop culture is always evolving — and teen dramas are wildly disparate now than they were even just a decade ago — how wouldI don’t think it would have been made in 2012 when the book came out. I initially wrote the screenplay for a feature film that was obviously never made. A drama that focuses on young women was so much a unicorn then, particularly for this kind of a story with athletic feats and complicated sexuality, this wasn’t even on the table back then.
