“The chemistry that you see and feel between Jonathan and Simone as Anthony and Kate is just out of this world,” Van Dusen says. Leading up to that moment, there were several scenes where the two were within seconds of kissing, each time getting interrupted by someone or something. “The frustration you feel between the two of them, it builds from episode to episode, scene to scene, really, and it’s palpable.”Ĭontrary to season one where Daphne and Simon cave to their desire for each other relatively early on, it isn’t until the final moments of episode six in the eight-episode second season - mere minutes after Edwina calls off her and Anthony’s wedding - that Kate and the viscount finally give in to their longing for one another. “You watch them go toe-to-toe throughout the season,” he says. Van Dusen sees Kate and Anthony as magnets - polar opposites, who are drawn to each other in a way that’s out of their control.
“I think that’s because there’s just so much conflict to mine between Anthony and Kate, and they have this banter that is just so much fun to watch, and Jonathan and Simone are so good at it.” “This season, one of the big tropes that we’re following is enemies to lovers, and that’s one of my favorite tropes of this genre,” showrunner Chris Van Dusen tells The Hollywood Reporter of his approach to the follow-up run. (When Daphne returns to the family home, she explains that she left her husband and newborn behind to help sister Eloise with her social debut.)

Their courtship, which is based on the second book in Julia Quinn’s best-selling series, delivers a markedly different will they-won’t they love story compared to the fiery romance between Daphne and the departed Regé-Jean Page‘s Duke Simon Basset that launched the series into bingeworthy breakout status over Christmas in 2020. Over the course of the eight episodes, Kate and Anthony are at each other’s throats - bickering, bantering and yet drawn toward each other despite their seeming disdain. So, she spends most of the season fighting Anthony off and pushing Edwina toward other suitors who will give her the love Kate feels she deserves. Kate knows Anthony isn’t looking for love, and she wants better for the younger sister she’s looked after all of her life. Why 'Do Revenge' Star Talia Ryder Never Needed to Be Part of the Cool Crowd
