Summary
Kerry Washington and Tony Goldwyn used Variety and CNN’s “Actors on Actors” to revisit “Scandal,” saying Olivia Pope and Fitzgerald Grant ultimately ended up together after the series’ 2018 finale.
Washington said the ABC drama’s 2012-18 run demanded major personal growth and helped expand TV representation with a Black woman leading a hit network series created by Shonda Rhimes.
The conversation also centered on their current work: Washington stars in and executive produces Apple TV+ thriller “Imperfect Women,” based on Araminta Hall’s 2020 novel, while Goldwyn appears on “Hacks” and “Law & Order.”
Goldwyn said joining “Law & Order” in March 2024 as Manhattan DA Nicholas Baxter felt like a privilege, while Washington described building “Imperfect Women” as a producer-led environment for risk-taking with Elisabeth Moss and Kate Mara.
