Facts Convention 2018 - Sunday, Jen’s Panel

“for those who dont know, how did you get into ouat?” -“who DOESNT know how i got into ouat?!” (x)

what shows on netflix would she watch that emma wouldnt watch and vice versa? they’d probably have very similar styles/taste (x)

“i dont know what’s on netflix. i watch apple tv. i just click it and see what happens.” (x)

she watches handmaid’s tale, casa de papel, OUTLANDER (x)

she’s not the fangirl kinda person so she doesnt fangirl over anyone (x)

her ideal dinner guest would me michelle obama (x) 

“what season of ouat had ur favorite storyline?” -“the 1st one because the journey of emma becoming a believer was so special” (x)

a fan thanked her for giving her the strength to follow her dreams and jen was like “i just play a character on tv, the strength comes from within you” (x)

“ouat is about life lessons. what life lesson would you wanna give to us?” -“be very careful about who you keep close to you, make sure they support you and you support them” (x)

someone literally just asked about romantic gideon/emma  jen interrupted and was like “wait arent we related isnt he my son’s grandfather’s son?” (x)

there’s always something she can use to do research for a character. even tho ouat is about fairytales etc but she did a lot of research about the foster system cuz emma’s a foster kid (x)

she still keeps in touch with ex costars and they’re always happy to see each other again when they do and they text and send bday/holiday messages (x)

re: light and dark about acting - positive thing is the costars that become family and the negative thing is being away from home and working long hours (x)

fan: “when i was young-“ jen: “you still look young to me!” (x)

question about the evolution of emma’s hair and makeup throughout the series jen: it always reflected what was going on with her (x)

if she was vulnerable and opening up in her relationship w her family and w hook, she’d wear less makeup (x)

“what scenes did you have to reshoot cuz u’d burst into laughter?” her answer was kinda like “y’all overestimate how funny i am, i’m never a part of any practical jokes” (x)

MRJ used to pull a lot of pranks on set (x)

but in general they’re on a tight schedule so not much time to pull pranks, they’re mostly focused on working efficiently (x)

she always thought of herself as an actor and director, she’s been wanting to do it for as long as she can remember and she’s lucky that her parents were so supportive (x)

she loves being on stage, she loves how theater had rehearsal periods where you can explore and try different things (x)

would she rather have the responsibilities of the savior, or the power to do whatever she wants as dark emma she’d love to help people like light emma but thinks dark emma was an important journey for emma as a person that she needed to go through (x)

the musical episode was a lot of fun, ouat was the perfect show for it, and most of the cast does something with music (x)

“colin sings and plays the guitar, i played the piano and clarinet as a child, josh does musical theater” (x)

“is emma a mommy’s girl or a daddy’s girl?” -“definitely a daddy’s girl. i have the same relationship with josh irl” (x)

“i actually think he’s my second dad” (x)

hugh laurie is a “smart and talented human being. he makes everyone around him better.” (x)

someone asked her to sing a small part of her song in the musical episode and she was like shaking her head and then the moderator saved her with “she can’t because we’re out of time! sorry!” (x)
