#PersonOfInterest:
#JurneeSmollett, who first gained recognition as a child star in the ’90s with her roles in 'Eve’s Bayou,'
#FullHouse and 'On Our Own,' is always looking for ways to grow with her characters. She doesn’t want to ever be “pigeonholed as one type of thing,” she makes clear.
“Whether it was a superhero in DC Comics or Letitia-f--king-Lewis in [
#LovecraftCountry], or a lawyer in 'The Burial,' or a single mom fighting to find her daughter in 'Lou,' I’m so fortunate that I get to step into all these different professions,” Smollett tells THR. For the full interview with the star, head to the link in bio.
