Interviews | Juliet Landau
Beyond reason

Picture What do you draw on to depict the madness that's one of Drusilla's defining characteristics?

Working with the character so long, it's like her illogic is logical to me by now, but then when I step back and I see an episode afterwards, it's pretty crazy.

I don't know if I would tell you all the inner workings of what I'm doing, but it's a riot because I get to go to all sorts of places, whether I'm rolling around laughing on a floor or dancing on a table. There's a lot of stuff - it gives me a lot of room.

Do you find that Drusilla's character is so strong that you've wanted to adapt things in scripts?

The scripts are really strong in terms of the characters.

Joss said that he had Spike and Drusilla running around in his head for ten years prior. It really is like you pick up a script and you go "Yeah". It feels really right all the time in terms of that.
