.hellojerrika opens up about her latest role on Hunters: 'It’s unlike anything I’ve seen on TV.'
M. Night Shyamalan and Apple TV+'s foray into serialized horror. What drew her to the role of Millie on"I was reevaluating what I want my involvement in this industry to look like, so I was saying no to a lot of things because nothing was interesting at the time. Then I read this script and immediately sat forward in my chair because it’s unlike anything I’ve seen on TV," Hinton toldover the phone.
"I didn’t know anything about the Catholic church. I didn’t know anything about the FBI and what the requirements were at the time, or when they started admitting black people or how many female agents there were," Hinton said."I did a hefty amount of research into J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI, because this is coming at the tail end of his reign and he was the guy hunting down and persecuting gay people.
The main component of her life, of course, is acting. But Hinton revealed that the way she came to be an actor is not exactly the typical actor's narrative of feeling a burning desire to perform."To be very frank, it was a thing I’d always done and a thing I knew I would continue to do, while also doing other things because I have other interests and other talents," she said.
Hinton also said that she is intellectually stimulated by the question of where a character like Millie fits within the popular trope of the"noble" cop."There’s an interesting thing that happens in entertainment when it comes to law enforcement," Hinton said."They love to put a black person as a cop or government official. The ‘noble person’ is, like, the black cop.
