Lucy Fry
"I’m always attracted to the journey."
Wake up, shower, get dressed. There’s a light drizzle so grab your favorite denim jacket on your way out. You head east until you hit the water. Then head east some more... until you reach the west coast. All journeys begin with one step, 37,920,960 steps in Lucy Fry’s case.
“I was backpacking around the world a bit and I stayed on one of my friends’ couches here \[in L.A.\] and was doing some auditions and within about a month I had booked my first role.” As Lucy Fry tells it, her journey all the way from Brisbane to Los Angeles was a surprisingly easy one. The 24-year-old actress had already made quite a name for herself in her native Australia for lead roles in _Mako Mermaids_ and _Lightning Point_ and while her first foray into American cinema proved fruitful with her performance in _Vampire Academy_ (2014), from the looks of it, good times are still ahead.
**Did you find it hard transitioning into U.S. films?**
I was really lucky in that it flowed quite easily to me, coming here... It happened a lot faster than I had expected and it felt a little bit Cinderella-ish and I couldn’t believe it was real for a while.
**Tell me about playing Lee Harvey Oswald’s Russian wife, Marina, in the Hulu miniseries** **_11.22.63._**
I loved it. Marina is a fascinating woman... It was the most realistic and fascinating character I’ve played. It was challenging because I had to learn Russian. I spoke Russian about half the time.
**Do you have any other upcoming projects?**
There’s quite a lot coming up this year. In Australia, I just finished filming the series _Wolf Creek_ and then there’s _The Darkness,_ which is a horror film I did with the same director here in L.A. All the stuff I’ve been doing for the past two years is all being released now so it’s quite exciting.
**What attracts you to a character?**
I’m always attracted to the journey. For Marina Oswald, she had a lot of shadows and self-doubt and felt very alien in this new country, so it was really brilliant for me to get to have a chance to look at all of that and where that \[relates\] to me in my life.
**Do you use your characters to grow yourself as an individual?**
I think it’s just something that happens whether you want it to or not. You can’t help absorbing some of their life and their ideas and their energy.
