Merida pulls out all the stops and lets go of her ego, and becomes a determined young lady, and wants to put everything right between her mother and her. She only becomes brave, as the title says, over the fear of losing something in her life and that’s her mother. Had that film come out when I was a young girl, it would have had a huge effect on me. TL: This almost goes without saying, but you must be a big fan of the Disney/Pixar version of Merida in Brave.ĪM: I really am! She’s really everything, right up to that Afro and wild, unruly curls. Being home really gave me my first chance to think of everything. Having time with my family in Scotland, and especially with my father-given the events of Merida’s storyline in the show-made me feel grateful. It’s one thing to be in your homeland as opposed to trying to re-create a place as your homeland, when you only have yourself, your thoughts, and your memories when you’re filming.
Tim Lammers: During the mid-season break, have you had time to step back and let everything sink in about just how amazing this opportunity has been?Īmy Manson: Maybe when I went home for Christmas to Scotland. She discussed the origins of Merida-who, of course, debuted in the 2012 Disney/Pixar Best Animated Feature Oscar® winner, Brave-her work on Once Upon a Time, and when she’ll appear on the show next after Season 5 resumes March 6. Currently enjoying a mid-season break after appearing in six episodes last fall, Manson, 30, recently talked with entertainment journalist Tim Lammers for D23.com.
A veteran of British TV and film, Scottish actress Amy Manson took a brave new step, so to speak, into American television this season when she was cast in the recurring role of Merida in the hit ABC adventure fantasy series Once Upon a Time.
