Now, of course, Samantha and Jay are initially terrified when they discover their existence but once they realize these ghosts aren’t going anywhere, “they need to see these ghosts as humans with human desires to be heard and to make peace with their time on earth as “livings”.” They can no longer look at them as scary beings but “instead as complex entities that need to be interpreted and understood,” Rose explained. The series’ integration of humor and ghosts highlights a different side of the dead that is notoriously known for their scare factor. “And we really hope that it’s able to provide that bright spark of entertainment to the audience now too.” I don’t know about you guys but simply based on the trailer, it seems like the show will be doing exactly just that and more! “GHOSTS was a bright light on the horizon for the cast during these uncertain times,” she shared wholeheartedly. “To connect as a group on the most long-running text thread I’d ever experienced with a bunch of people who had essentially barely met in person.” Challenge definitely accepted!Ī bonding experience like no other, by the time they headed on to set it was as though a reunion was happening. To read and watch as much relevant material as possible,” Rose explained. Starting March, the “green light” was given and the cast and crew were headed towards Montreal to finally start filming. The majority of 2020 was spent awaiting the start date of shooting the pilot which finally came in December of that year.

Having booked this role right before the pandemic hit, it’s safe to say that the road of production was a long one. The opportunities just seemed so much more expansive than on many of the scripts I’d read.” “All of the different time periods that can be flashed back to, the new arrivals we could gain, the predicaments Samantha and Jay could end up in. “Often, when you’re reading a project, you can see the parameters of the world it exists in – but on this show the variety of directions the story could take seem infinite,” she added. When she first read the script, she was immediately hooked by the humor of it. Grateful for having a job and positive environment in which she could fully immerse herself through these trying times, Rose takes it all in with open arms and a warm heart. Made up of skilled improvisers, actors, and comedians, it’s safe to say that the filming process was an experience like no other. Every person on set brought their own authentic and brilliant self which stuck with Rose who was in a dream working with such “genuinely good people.”

Starring in the hauntingly hilarious series, Rose Mclver is thrilled for GHOSTS to finally come out in which she was “able to play alongside such a stellar cast.” A cast filled with actors playing characters from different eras, “we get to see dramatically different viewpoints, moral codes and interpretations of modern day affairs,” she shared.

Halloween is around the corner and what better way than to kick off Spooky season with CBS’ up-and-coming series, GHOSTS.
