Timothy Granaderos recently had an interview with TVLINE and this is what he had to say about his character Montgomery de la Cruz
TVLINE | Is there a chance we haven’t seen the last of Monty? Even dead characters have a habit of lingering on this show.
I would like to think so, and with the way we tell our stories, it’s always a possibility. But I don’t really have an idea of what’s really going to happen. I do want to keep working, though!
TVLINE | If not, how do you hope Monty will be remembered?
I hope people will remember him as a complex kid who was trying to figure himself out, like anyone else. … It shouldn’t have happened to him. No matter what he did, he was a human, and this shouldn’t have happened. He did have this tough home life, and this secret he was keeping, and he was alone.
TVLINE | That reminds me — one of the lines that hit me the hardest was when Bryce was excusing Monty for assaulting Winston. Bryce told him, “He gets beat at home and s–t.” He said it so casually, but a good friend would have intervened.
You’re right. He says it in such a normal way, but that’s not a normal situation to be in. This kid is trying to grow and develop, and that’s what his normal is? Even to his friends, that’s what’s considered normal? What do you think is going to happen? What happened to Tyler in the bathroom was normal for him. It was a joke to him. We know that it wasn’t a joke — far from it — but if that’s what you’re made to believe is OK, you’re not going to have any regrets.
I found this very interesting to read, and this gives me a lot of hope for the future. I mean even the actor who portrays Monty sees the complexity and potential in his character. As you should. Not only do we need justice for Monty, but we also need to see his story continue. 🧡32.
