Sara Paxton felt at home on the set of Based on a True Story thanks to co-stars Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina.

The actress played Paige/Copycat Killer in Season 2 of Peacock’s dark comedy thriller.

The Aquamarine actress opened up about the experience in a new interview with OK!: “Everybody on that set, including Kaley and Chris, were so welcoming. They were so kind and so friendly. They’re already like a family there because they’re in Season 2. They welcomed me with open arms, which really helped. It made me not be nervous and feel good.”

“They have great chemistry together,” the actress said of the lead duo. “Constantly riffing, laughing and making jokes. So, I felt like, ‘Oh, this is a really fun set where we’re all just laughing all the time.’ It helps fill the energy of the room.”

Commenting on her character’s pivot into dark tendencies, she said: “The writers did a really good job because the driving force behind this character is that something devastating happened to her [character], which is that her sister was brutally murdered.”

“Starting there already, I have a lot of empathy for the character,” Paxton said. “People watching do, too, because this person is in a lot of pain. Something terrible has happened to somebody that she loves and it’s sort of walking a fine line because not everybody who loses something takes the route of going on a murderous rampage. But at her core, there was something there that was relatable.”
