Jenna Dewan talks leather catsuits and her return to dancing on screen in Soundtrack
) wrote the role specifically for the actress and Dewan says the dancing aspect was a huge part of the appeal for her. “It was really fun to do something that was dancing within an acting medium again,” she tells EW. “And in a different way, with singing. I got to pretend I was my own pop star within my scenes.”
Dewan has several standout moments, most notably, a number in episode 2 where two versions of herself face-off — one more balletic and soft, and the other, a fiercer version, sporting a leather catsuit. Dewan says the costume felt like a nod to Jackson, who helped boost her career in its early days. “‘Human Nature’ — I watched that video over and over,” she explains. “In the tour, I was on, All For You, she did it in one of her numbers. It’s like Catwoman. It’s just empowering.
The number required Dewan to learn two full sets of choreography and to work with a double, who she danced alongside before they digitally altered the number to look like Dewan was dancing alongside herself.“[Josh told me] your character is having a moment of trying to fight her own self — who she is and who she wants to be and where she needs to go. So we’re going to have you play two versions of yourself and then you make out. . That was all the information I got,” she says.
Dewan’s character’s life takes a very different direction from her own. While Dewan found success as a dancer, Joanna decides to set aside those dreams in pursuit of a new one. She says it was a valuable, moving perspective for her. “I looked at it in a lot of ways, like choose-your-own-adventure in my own personal life,” she muses. “I had so many struggles as a dancer and auditioning and not getting roles. I did get that ‘Yes’ finally. Joanna doesn’t get that ‘Yes.
To understand the ins and outs of Joanna’s job as a social worker, Dewan spoke to an actual one, Amy, a friend of Safran’s. “She told me everything — exactly how you feel in the role, the complex emotions you have, when you walk into a room, what you have to assess when you walk in,” she explains. “You can’t be too forward in their lives; you can’t be too passive in their lives.
