Is [SPOILER] Really Dead on Legion?
This interview contains spoilers for Legion Season 3, episode 5, which aired on July 22. Legion Season 3 airs Mondays at 10 p.m. on FX in the US.
Aubrey Plaza is as obsessed with her Legion character as you are. Over the wild series’ fantastical run — “And yes,” she admits, “it's just as confusing to me” — her performance has been a breakout among breakouts, a singular talent in a Noah Hawley show chockablock with them. But Plaza knows, like the rest of us, that she has a leg up on everyone else in the show: she’s freakin’ Lenny, and Lenny is nothing if not pure chaos. She’s technically already dead, and has died a bunch of times, was taken over by a supermutant (Navid Negaban), and has David Haller (Dan Stevens)’s adoptive sister living in her head, seeing with her eyes. With this character more than most, truly, anything is possible. “That is why Lenny is such a fun character, because she's a lovable villain. She's a lovable trickster!”
