Marshals we currently have and then when you look at color it’s even less. I think we can count on maybe two hands with some fingers missing the number of female U.S. In a way it’s a mirrored experience, what Rachel goes through in her job and what I do on the show. I wanted to ask you what it’s like to be a woman of color on a Western, which is a genre so often dominated by white men? I like the will they/won’t they, so maybe in an alternate universe. It’s something that I never personally saw happening between them, but a lot of my friends who watch the show have said, “Oooooooh you like Raylan! There’s an energy!” The writers played with the idea that there would be a line crossed, but I think Rachel is pretty smart and pretty practical so I think that even if she wanted to, she wouldn’t jeopardize her office relationship for something that probably wouldn’t work out. Do you like that about her? Or do wish they had gone there? Other than some of the villains like Mags Bennett and Katherine Hale, Rachel is one of the few major female characters to never have been a love interest for Raylan. Because Elmore was very opinionated and he liked what he liked and to be included and have him write some stories for Rachel along with Raylan is great. I think, walking away from this experience, that’s the best thing that could have happened. Rachel wasn’t actually an Elmore creation, but after seeing the first season, he fell in love with her and included her in the Raylan novel that he wrote a few years ago. They have some sort of sense of humor and they’re survivors. They’re all extremely strong even in their vulnerabilities and weaknesses. ![]() I mean, Ava Crowder is the quintessential Elmore woman. How does Rachel fit in with Elmore's women? The show was a critical darling for most of its run, what do you think went wrong last season?Įlmore Leonard's created some great, tough female characters like Karen Sisco and Jackie Brown. VF Hollywood: We spoke with creator Graham Yost last year about the backlash around Season 5. We spoke with Tazel about her time on Justified and her theory about who, if anyone, will leave Harlan alive. Marshal Rachel Brooks for five seasons, steps into the role of interim chief, a.k.a., Raylan’s boss, a.k.a., the materfamilias. As we head into the final season Erica Tazel, who has played Deputy U.S. The family you grew up with, and the family you make. Justified has always been a show about history, roots, and family. But as the clock strikes high noon in Kentucky’s Harlan County, it becomes clear that the show is about more than just pistols at dawn or cops and robbers. The show’s final season (of which I’ve seen the first three episodes) is maybe its strongest yet, with the promised showdown between the lawman Raylan Givens ( Timothy Olyphant) and the outlaw Boyd Crowder ( Walton Goggins) finally coming to pass. #Erica tazel tv#The modern-day Western, from the twisty mind of novelist Elmore Leonard and veteran TV showrunner Graham Yost shakes off the cloud of criticism that hung around it in Season 5 with a vengeance. ![]()
