Y'lan Noel exclusively told Us Weekly about preparing to play Ferdie on 'Lady in the Lake,' working with several powerful women on the show and more
When Lady in the Lake premieres on Apple TV+, viewers should keep a close eye on Y'lan Noel's role as Ferdie.
Noel specifically highlighted the pivotal presence that Ferdie has in both Maddie and Cleo's lives. 'In terms of getting into character, it's something about putting on that police uniform that really sort of brings you there. Looking at myself in the mirror as a cop — especially a Black cop in the 1960s — the level of that was very interesting,' the actor recalled. 'Just from walking around on set, you had people that were just talking to you very fluidly when you are in your character's clothes.
Another interesting set highlight for Noel was the opportunity to work with talented people such as Portman, 43, Ingram, 30, and director Alma Har'el. He continued: 'She shows by example. She's somebody who is a consummate professional, and I felt very comfortable being able to make these scenes sing with her as my partner.'
'We want to show up to work every day and give your best shot. And you are working with some of the best in the business. So it's about just making sure that you raised the bar that's so high,' he shared. 'I think we all did a great job. And Alma is somebody who has a set that allows you to be your best self. I thank her for it because she's truly a visionary.'
