We spoke w/ DaisyJonesAndTheSix stars nabiyahbe and _Tom_Wright_ on the complexities of their characters, the disco inspiration for Simone, how Teddy relates to Billy, and more.
[Editor’s note: The following contains some spoilers for Daisy Jones & The Six.]Based on the best-selling novel of the same name from Taylor Jenkins Reid, the Amazon Studios/Hello Sunshine series Daisy Jones & The Six tells the story of the meteoric rise and crash-and-burn implosion of the iconic 1970s band, fronted by Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne .
NABIYAH BE: In my case, I understood, pretty early, on that Simone was gonna be more expanded and a little bit different from the book, so I left it on the shelf for my audition process. A lot of Simone is really a big mesh of big disco names, like Donna Summer, Chaka Khan and Diana Ross, and then lesser known names and background vocalists, like Linda Clifford and Claudia Lennear. And then, a lot of it was from my personal experience, as well.
WRIGHT: The first time actually happened off camera. Prior to shooting, they decided to hold a concert for the crew and family members and the employees of Hello Sunshine. I went to it with very low expectations because they had never played instruments before. Some people weren’t trained singers. But the quality of the musicianship and the quality of the songs and the music was so spot on. I left amazed and recommitted to playing Teddy Price to the utmost of my ability.
Simone’s journey is so interesting because when we meet her, it feels like she has a real sense of who she is, but then we learn that that’s not really the case, and she has a rediscovery of herself. What was it like to really find her, and did that help you connect with her more deeply to? WRIGHT: I’m gonna let the audience decide what it says about his humanity. For me, it was important to understand that Teddy was at a point in his life where he needed to count more on the intrinsic quality and beauty of an individual than what they could possibly provide. So, when he meets Billy, Teddy sees a bit of himself in Billy, and he wants to nurture that. When he meets Daisy, he sees a bit of the artistic ability that he has in Daisy.
