STAR-CROSSED: Aimee Teegarden Previews ‘These Violent Delights…’

STAR-CROSSED got off to a bang with last week’s pilot, as the peace between the humans and Atrians was threatened after an accidental murder. And in tonight’s brand new episode, the consequences of that action will play out.

“You get to see the fallout of last week’s episode, with the shooting of [Roman’s father],” STAR-CROSSED star Aimee Teegarden (Emery) previewed. “And how people are coping with that as a society.”

For Emery, her focus is more on how Roman is coping with his loss.

“Emery comes in, trying to figure out how she can help and make Roman feel better,” Teegarden teased. “And Roman starts to push her away, and shut her [out]. And Emery starts to cozy up more to Grayson. So there’s more love triangle drama.”

And, of course, complicating the love triangle is the slight issue that Emery’s father was the one who killed Roman’s father.

“I think at this point, she’s really just following her heart,” noted Teegarden. “I think there is some guilt, obviously, about what happened and that being so closely related to her, but I think Emery doesn’t really think about how does this affect her. I think she just thinks about what’s the right thing to do.”

As for Teegarden, she is just happy viewers are finally getting to experience the show.

“It was about a year [between filming the pilot and it airing],” she pointed out. “It was kind of surreal [when it aired last week], actually, because I had seen the pilot before, but to see it on live TV, with real commercials and things was so surreal. I was there at the studio with all my cast and we were live-tweeting and being able to interact with fans, and get actual, real feedback, which was so awesome. Our fans have been absolutely amazing and I’m just so excited for everyone to see the second episode. And our cast is doing another live-tweet tonight, so it’s going to be awesome.”
