Black Lightning SDCC ’18 Interview: Nafessa Williams

The CW lit up this year with the arrival of DC Comics’ Black Lightning as Jefferson Pierce and his family jumped from the comic pages to screen. After a successful first season, the electrifying family is gearing up for its second season as the cast and producers previewed what is coming up in Season 2 at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

DC TV Podcasts’ Andy Behbakht (The Flash Podcast, Titans Podcast) was fortunate to attend the press room to chat with the cast and producers what to expect in the new season. One of the great talents present was Anissa Pierce a.k.a. Thunder herself, Nafessa Williams. Throughout the roundtable interview, Williams spoke about the following for Season 2:

-What we can expect of the still-formation of the Outsiders team with the Pierce heroes

-What her first year has been like being Thunder and wearing the costume

-Whether or not we can expect to see Grace Choi back in Season 2

-What it has been like to be part of the great line of strong LGBT superheroes on The CW

Black Lightning Season 2 premieres on Tuesday, October 9 at 9/8c on The CW!
