Showrunner Erica Lipez opened up about Joey‘s character Halina in a new interview with Elle. “It’s this incredible sort of adult coming-of-age story for her. I think she starts the war at 21 and ends around 28. There’s just this strength and intelligence and humor and ambition to Halina that we felt like we knew Joey would capture,” Erica said. “I mean, she did that and she was extraordinary to work with.”
