Episode Details

Samantha Morton joins Kyle Meredith to talk about the 2nd season of The Serpent Queen and her debut album, Daffodils & Dirt. The actress is once again portraying Catherine de' Medici in the Starz period series and talks about where the Queen of France gets her drive from, the parallels between the 16th century period of the show, and what’s happening politically at this moment in the US and UK, and compares the role in contrast to playing Alpha in The Walking Dead. Morton also describes how her early interest in music and early collaborations with Nightmare On Wax finally led to her debut album after Richard Russell gave her a call to get together to write and record, and discusses the record’s autobiographical narrative, her love of Wall of Sound type music, Metallica, and Miles Davis, and getting to duet with UB40’s Ali Campbell.
