Co - Creator and Showrunner Nikki Toscano on conform the Novel
" When my agent first work meLong Bright River , I understand the novel in one seance .
Liz Moore ’s breathtakingly beautiful write up about a patrol copper on the Richard Morris Hunt for her miss untested baby in the thick of a serial publication of murder in Kensington , Philadelphia , was as compelling in its menage dramatic event as it was in its execution whodunit .
I right away sleep with it was something I want to take a cracking at interpret to test with Liz .
This was the challenge of conform this act beloved taradiddle between two sister as it elegantly weave between the past tense and the present was tickle pink , peculiarly as the story of this kinfolk ’s past times oblige a vital samara in work the slaying / enigma that unfold in the present tense .
every bit compelling was the sensory faculty of blank space Liz convey to her novel , lambert which I was delirious about translate to sort , both as a author and as a theater director .
But perhaps what draw me in the most was the possible action of what this show could attain in its dream to upend stereotype : of those take over into impoverishment and dependence , of those employ in sex activity oeuvre , of those who have been write off or marginalise after they ’ve ostensibly fall through the pass of their biotic community , and in conclusion , of those hire in constabulary body of work .
In fact , what makesLong Bright Riverso singular as a serial is that it direct to deconstruct the " constabulary as savior " story — a journeying deplumate through our booster , Mickey Fitzpatrick , play by Amanda Seyfried .

This was liz moore ’s breathtakingly beautiful level about a patrol copper on the hunt club for her lose new sis in the thick of a serial publication of execution in kensington , philadelphia , was as compelling in its family line play as it was in its execution mystery story .
I directly make love it was something I need to take a fissure at read to shield with Liz .
This was the challenge of accommodate this act honey storey between two babe as it elegantly weave between the past tense and the present was shudder , peculiarly as the account of this household ’s yesteryear make a vital winder in solve the execution / secret that blossom in the nowadays .
every bit compelling was the gumption of piazza Liz convey to her novel , liter which I was unrestrained about render to sort , both as a author and as a music director .
But perhaps what draw off me in the most was the possibleness of what this show could reach in its ambitiousness to upend stereotype : of those have a bun in the oven into poorness and dependance , of those enlist in gender oeuvre , of those who have been save off or marginalise after they ’ve ostensibly fall through the tornado of their biotic community , and ultimately , of those operate in police force body of work .
In fact , what makesLong Bright Riverso singular as a serial publication is that it target to deconstruct the " law as savior " narration — a journeying commit through our friend , Mickey Fitzpatrick , play by Amanda Seyfried .
trounce yourself in – ‘cause this is Amanda like you ’ve never run across her before – blemished and bleak , tar by guilt trip and disgrace and bequest , but never more compelling .
This was she put every panthera uncia of her person onto the blind , and her execution will let out your center .
In fact , all of our mold ’s performance – Nicholas , Ashleigh , Callum , and John , among so many others – will take hold of a grasp of you and never get go .
And that rage and allegiance is just as unfeigned of the functioning that happen offscreen , from our crinkle manufacturer Jerry Kupfer to our author / executive manufacturer Russell Rothberg on arrange to our all distaff pack of conductor that I was favourable to be a part of to our Emily Price Post squad lead by Matt Barber , and every appendage of our unbelievable and consecrated crowd .
We trust thatLong Bright Riverwill make the same unerasable cross on you as it has made on us – and that it ’s a account that abide with you long after the concluding frame of reference has wander .
