In an interview with Collider, Wisocky was asked about the way Hetty’s hidden power drives her trajectory in Ghosts season 4. The actor explains that, for someone so fixated on status, it’s been interesting to have Hetty as the one with unknown powers. Wisocky also spoke about the way that showrunners Joe Port and Jose Wiseman have revealed some secrets even while keeping others, like the death of Sasappis, who is played by Román Zaragoza. Wisocky’s quote is below:
I thought it was wonderful that the character that is so preoccupied with status was the one that believed that she might not actually have a power at all. That was fun for us to play and fun for the other ghosts to get to mock her and chide her about that.
Our showrunners, Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, have been really smart with the way they’ve just kind of slowly revealed these big pivotal secrets in these characters’ moments, like their death stories and their powers. So there’s one left after we reveal Hetty’s power. I think there’s only one left that we need to find out — Sasappis’ death. But I think it’s a good way to keep some of those mysteries alive and those options open for them in terms of different plotlines they want to pursue.
What Hetty’s Lack Of Power Has Meant For Ghosts
It’ll Be Impactful
The lack of power hits harder because of what viewers already know about Hetty’s tragic death and what it reveals about a character that would prefer to highlight her privilege. In actuality, however, Hetty’s life was not so simple. That may be reflected in the power reveal once it is eventually disclosed. If that’s the case, Ghosts has the chance to recreate one of its most emotional emotions.
