AbbotElementary's Lisa Ann Walter shows a softer side of Melissa in the midseason premiere of Season 2.
Lisa Ann Walter has spoken about her character’s vulnerability in the Season 2 mid-season return of Abbott Elementary. The actress, who plays second-grade teacher Melissa Schemmenti, has revealed viewers will see a new side to her character, whilst also hinting at what is to come in the rest of the season. In an interview with Deadline, Walter spoke about the “beautiful” connection her character was able to form with a student in the mid-season return of Abbott Elementary.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY When asked what she thought about her character’s softer side, Walter explained she was glad of the change to the typical “tough” side shown. “With any character that comes off tough like that, there’s a reason for it. Tough is a protection. So anytime you’re protecting something, it’s because there’s something to cover, there’s a vulnerability,” she said. The actress also added she drew on her own personal struggles when delving into Melissa’s vulnerability.
Walter also revealed what is to come in the remainder of Season 2, hinting the audience will enjoy seeing more of the romances in the series. “Well, I mean, everybody wants to know obviously about the romance. I will say that there were a couple of interesting romantic moves that happen before the end of the season,” Walter teased. “I’m not going to say what, but I think the audience is going to be really happy.
