Katie Lowes Interview
Q: I know you can’t tell me what’s gonna happen on the show, but…
Katie Lowes: I can’t tell you what’s gonna happen on the show. And you know what? I don’t even know. I’m so freaked out. I have no idea what’s gonna happen. I don’t know how it’s gonna end. Nobody’s told us. It’s so scary.
Q: Is that anxiety-producing for you?
Katie Lowes: I’m just so used to trusting Shonda. For seven seasons, I haven’t known what was going to happen to Quinn, I haven’t known what was going to happen to anybody. And it’s all been an amazing ride, because look, am I going to think of something better? No. Like, no way in hell. So I’m just like, “Do your thing. You tell me where to stand and what to say.” She’s the great protector of our characters, and of the story.
Q: You started off as Lindsay Dwyer, this wrongfully accused lawyer, and now you’re Quinn Perkins, ex-assassin. What did you think you were signing up for?
Katie Lowes: Oh my God. I literally thought I was signing up for what I auditioned for: the rookie, the newbie, the bright-eyed, bushy-tailed new lawyer. I thought I was going to be lawyering stuff and in power suits. I had no idea I would be killing people, B613, a leather jacket. Having a baby. I had no no no idea.
Q: They’re really putting you through the ringer this season. Is that fun to play, or is that really grueling?
Katie Lowes: It’s so fun to play. I mean, especially when you’re 38 weeks pregnant. [Laughs] I feel really lucky that in this final season, Quinn has gotten to do a lot of heavy lifting. And I also just feel like it’s such a testament to where I work. Because it’s not like I told Shonda [Rhimes] I was pregnant and all of a sudden I’m completely written out, and being treated as if something was wrong. It’s like, “Oh, no, no. You’re pregnant, now you’re gonna run [Olivia Pope and Associates], and you’re gonna be asked to do all these amazing things, because it’s possible.” You can be pregnant, and be playing a pregnant character who’s also a badass. And kicking ass, and taking names.
Q: It seems like the workplace has been structured to make it better for moms.
Katie Lowes: It’s unbelievable here. I say to people, my biggest mistake is that I didn’t have four babies on this show. Because I don’t even want to think about what else is out there, I mean, in as far as other bosses in TV land, and other industries, too. It’s just heaven to be a mom, and a working mom, and a pregnant person in Shondaland. She was the first person I told I was pregnant, right after my husband. She knew I was pregnant when I was five minutes pregnant.
And as soon as it came out, and I was three or four months pregnant, I showed up, and they had replaced my trailer steps with this huge deck, and huge stairs, because they didn’t even want me going up and down trailer stairs, because they can be slippery. Or any time I shot a scene that was remotely physical at all, I had a stunt coordinator, a stunt double. But also an OB was on set, making sure I did everything correctly and safely, for me and my baby. My trailer has a nursery in it. I’m allowed to bring my baby to work every day. They have my breastfeeding schedule. And so they let me go back to my trailer as much, and as long as I need, to feed my kid. Which is an amazing thing.
Q: I imagine that a lot of this comes from Shonda, and from the people that she surrounds herself with. It sounds like it’s a much different work environment than most people have.
Katie Lowes: She’s a mother of three, and Kerry’s a mom. And Viola Davis is a mom. And I just think that it’s really supported and encouraged here. Shonda supports people to have full lives, whatever that means to them. For example, she’s super involved in my theater company because she loves theater. But it’s just an example of how she really supports her actors to have full-fledged lives, whatever that may be for them. So when I told her that being a mom was something that was important to me, she backed me and supported me 100 percent.
