REVERIE: Sarah Shahi on Mara’s Family Mystery

On NBC’s REVERIE, Mara (Sarah Shahi) has a tragic familial backstory—her sister and niece were killed by her brother-in-law.

But thanks (perhaps) to her new job at Reverie, which allows its users to retreat into memories/fantasy situations, Mara is now seeing her deceased niece.

“You don’t know is she seeing things? Is she going crazy? Is the program messing with her mind?” Shahi told reporters in the video below. “Mara starts going crazy. And it was so much fun playing that.”

Check out more from Shahi about Mara’s struggles…
