Briefly from the Crystal Reed panel 10/28/2018 (Day two) at ComicCon in Warsaw:
Crystal did not read comics until she got a role in “The Swamp Thing”. She, of course, started with Alan Moore. She knows that his works are the Holy Grail for fans of comics, and considers them very poetic and elegant. These comics pulled her head. Kristal understood that starting with Moor’s stories might have spoiled her impression of others, but now she is studying the DS universe in more detail. She thinks it is very deep and intriguing, her idea of comics completely changed.
Crystal at first had no idea what Sofia Falcon would be like. In the comics, she is a huge, monstrous, crazy witch-looking woman. Initially, she was only warned that Sophia would be a Mob Boss. But the opportunity to play the leader of the mafia seemed to Crystal very exciting, and when it turned out that Sofia would be the villain of the season, it interested her even more. Because usually Crystal is cast to the role of nice girls, and the opportunity to play the baddy very pleased her. Because of the difference between the on-screen and comic versions of Sophia, the pressure on Crystal was significantly less, but she was still worried, knowing that this is a character that many fans already know.
When Cristal joined Gotham's caste, the actors on the set already had an established relationship. Sometimes for an actor, it can be something like a school change - you want to fit in. But on the set of Gotham, she was welcomed with open arms, and this greatly pleased her. Already during the make-up tests, Robin Taylor (Oswald Kobblepot aka Penguin) came to see her, to get to know each other, and they talked about everything in the world for 45 minutes. Crystal knows from her own experience that this is not always like that on the set, and is very grateful for this attitude.
On the question “Does Crystal ship Sterek?” She clarified what “ship” means. But after explantation, she said yes - she would like to see them as a pair on the screen: “That would be cool. They are great together, they have very funny scenes, and they are great pals in life.”
When Crystal was asked to say something to novice actors, she said that she is lucky to love what she is doing very much. After all, if it were not so, it would be very easy to give up. The acting industry is very challenging, but if you love what you do, and there is nothing other in the world that you could do, then you need to go for it and never accept “no” as the answer. Crystal has never had a plan “B”.
In the first two seasons, on the set of TeenWolf was a very relaxed atmosphere. There was no pressure because no one suspected how popular the show would be. Despite the fact that many scenes were filmed in the cold, at night, and demanded tension, everyone was joking and were very happy. But Crystal has always been the object of jokes, not those who joke.
Crystal is a vegetarian and she liked the Polish “pirogi” with vegetables.
Crystal always tried to improvise on the set of TeenWolf. Especially in scenes with Dylan (Dylan O`Brien - Stiles Stilinski), he himself does it well, often and very funny. But in her attempts, they always said “Cut!”, She asked: “But wait, I have such a funny replica here!”, But no - it was cut and that's it. She understands that Allison is not a humorous character in this story, and knows her place, so she allowed Dylan to take all the “glory” for himself.
To the question - “Who would you like to play in TeenWolf, except for your character?” Kristal chose Kanim. She always wanted to make such a full makeup. She asked to try to be a werewolf, but she was not allowed. It seems to Crystal that it is very liberating - to get such a completely different appearance and try to move and speak like something completely inhuman. Crystal would like to play a big scary monster. According to the comics, Abby will have such an opportunity in “The Swamp Thing”, Crystal does not know if it will happen in the series, but will hope for it. If it happens, then definitely not in the first season.
Abby Arkan in “The Swamp Thing” has very white, snowy hair. And Crystal is not sure that this will happen, but perhaps she will try on such an image in the series. Crystal is interested to see herself as a blonde. (ComicCon took place a week before the start of filming "Swamp Thing").
Crystal is inspired by Meryl Streep. She can't tell anyone better than her. And also the stars of old Hollywood, like Katharine Hepburn. For Crystal, it is important that the actress is strong, both in life behind the screen and within the industry.
Choosing between the roles of Allison Argent and Marie Jeanne-Valet, Crystal cannot name any of these roles more difficult than the other. They are different, and each has its own difficulties. In the role of Marie, she has had a difficult language, that’s why there was a French teacher with her on the set.

Now that we have your attention: Just a reminder Pete's Basement will not be seen tonight! We're doing a Friday show this week so be sure to tune in tomorrow night! In the meantime, go watch #Gotham. This is pretty much the reason Ramon and I would watch it 😍😂😂 Gotham girls! L-R: #CrystalReed as #SofiaFalcone, #MaggieGeha as #PoisonIvy/#IvyPepper, #CamrenBicondova as #Catwoman/#SelinaKyle, #ErinRichards as #BarbaraKean, and #JessicaLucas as #TabithaGalavan. Oh and I think #BruceWayne is now like #Batman Year One or something.
