“ | That's the big message of the show, that kids need to speak up and make sure our voices are heard. | ” |
— Malina Weissman[1]
|
Weissman auditioned for Violet Baudelaire several times, having previously worked with Barry Sonnenfeld on Nine Lives. Her last audition was a chemistry read with Louis Hynes in LA, and as he had a British accent, she was concerned that she wasn't going to get the part or be made to don a British accent. That same day, she found out she got the part.
She considers it an honor to play Violet because she's someone "everybody can look up to", as a smart and empowering girl. She also found Violet's inventions and her art projects to be similar traits. Weissman said she hopes "that she can be like her. I want to be like her."
She practiced tying back her hair a lot so as to do it fast, and eventually picked up the habit herself.
The main lesson she learned from Neil Patrick Harris, on set, was to not be afraid, and to speak up if they felt something wasn't right. While filming Season 1, Weissman was helpfully able to soothe Presley Smith while preparing for a scene.
She states that an unforgettable scene for her was during "The Wide Window: Part Two," where her, Hynes and Alfre Woodard were on a sailboat on a blue screen, none of them knew their lines, and they had to run back and forth and up the mast while people threw water at them. She stated it was a crazy scene, and very fun to film. She said that one of her favorite scenes was in "The Vile Village: Part Two, where the Baudelaires let the Quagmires go, as they decided to let their friends go to a safe life while they stayed behind to deal with Count Olaf, showing the characters finally taking a stand.[1]
