News about Charlie Morningstar by Erika Henningsten
In a recent interview with Erika Henningsten, news informations emerged about Charlie, past, present, and future:
In the third season, Charlie will “go back to being a sad little girl,” meaning she’ll do everything she can to impress Lilith and earn her attention, and this will lead her to hurt or push away people close to her.
We’ll find out whether or not Lilith had been watching the events of the previous seasons.
Charlie and Lilith will have a duet.
Erika highly praised Lilith’s voice actress, although she still hasn’t been officially revealed yet.
One thing Charlie and Lilith have in common is that, in order to achieve “what they believe is best,” they end up hurting people along the way.
Compared to the previous ones, the third season will have much less action and will be far more emotional. It will represent an emotional turning point for Charlie, just like the fourth season will.
By the end of the fourth season, Charlie will have a song that serves as an “emotional closure” to Happy Day in Hell, in which she will sound very different compared to the first season.
Charlie’s past will be explored further in the third season (so, presumably, her family’s past as well).
When asked to compare Charlie to a flower, Erika compared her to an African daisy (white petals and a black center), referring to an inner darkness that could symbolize both her pain and her demonic fury.
Erika explained that Charlie didn’t look deeper into the deal between Alastor and Vox in the second season because, although she found it strange, she believed Alastor had his reasons for doing it, since there is a bond of “trust” between them (at least from Charlie’s side). Alastor was there for her when no one else was, and it’s implied that Charlie has a soft spot for him (even compared to Vaggie, who has also always been by her side) because she desperately needs a mentor figure, and Alastor filled that role at the first opportunity.
Erika jokingly said that there will definitely be a crossover with Helluva Boss in the future.
In the fourth season, Charlie will have a song in which she will “growl quite a lot.”
