Schitt's Creek star Annie Murphy dives into mermaids, deepfakes and comfort viewing

A little bit Annie

It's been three years since Schitt's Creek wrapped. Where do you think your character Alexis would be now? Based on her past adventures, which are so expansive and colourful, she could literally be anywhere.

If there were an opportunity for you to play Alexis again, would you? Of course I would! It was the most special time in my life. I had so much fun playing that character. The cast are all such dear friends. It would be a dream. But Alexis isn't getting any younger. No-one wants to see a woman in her late sixties teetering around in high heels. I mean, of course there are women in their late sixties who can rock stilettos, but I won't be one of them. So we need to get on with it if there's going to be a reboot.
