The cast of OWN’s hit Wednesday night show, Queen Sugar is the cover story for Ebony magazine’s July/August issue.
Inside the mag, the cast discusses each of their characters on the show, and how they authentically depict African-American stories:
“I pull from my experiences as a Black man in America and all my brothers,” Kofi Siriboe, who plays Ralph Angel on the series told EBONY. “I see Ralph Angel in everybody.”
“That’s the thing I love about Nova; there hasn’t been a character quite like her,” Rutina Wesley, who plays Nova, the eldest Bordelon sibling states. “I love that she’s really pretty unusual, and I think she’s flawed and very human. I love that I never quite know where she’s going. And I also love that anything is possible with Nova.”
“Charley’s strength is a little superheroic,” Dawn-Lyen Gardner, who plays the character said. “She is really one of the most resilient characters I [believe] I’ve ever played.”
Tune into the second season of Queen Sugar on OWN Wednesday nights.
