Experiences influencing these characters, you know, dealing with loss and friendship

presented a totally new and different challenge for this lively, fun duo (they bounce off each other really well during our chat, with lots of giggling), who no doubt both have exciting careers ahead of them.

Harrier has just finished shooting a sci-fi film with Tom Hanks, called Bios, which is going to be out next year.

“I love doing big budget movies and having fun with that,” she says, “but then it’s awesome to be able to do something like this that’s a bit more artistic and creative, and it’s really good to have an input in the story and collaborate with people.”

Vinaite, meanwhile, is currently busy making her own animated show: “It’s going to be a comedy, but will talk about important subjects like mental health, identity and struggles.”

There’s a lot of discussion at the moment about how this is a really progressive time for the TV and film industry. Do they feel empowered knowing there is, perhaps, more opportunities and variety, when it comes to roles for women now?

“Yeah, sure,” says Vinaite emphatically. “I also think it’s a really special time because way more women are getting into different positions than they have been.

“I’m creating a show right now - I’m producing it, I’m in it, and I feel like learning all the different elements of everything else that happens is so interesting, and it makes me so much more passionate about creating. And the fact that, finally, more women are in these roles, and we could get even more, it’s a really great time to be an actress.”

“What’s so important as well is to have women not just in front of the camera but behind as well; directing and producing and writing,” Harrier concurs.
