Behind-the-Scenes: Esther’s Transformation
The transformation of Esther Roklov from a hardened sister-in-law to someone more open and fun-seeking is a significant focus for Tohn. She explains, “Playing it all is really fun. Playing jealous of him and Morgan is really interesting.” This season sees Esther navigating new relationships and personal growth, leading to a cathartic journey that the actress was eager to explore further.
Tohn also discusses her character’s iconic appearance in season 2, including getting bangs as a symbol of change. “I feel two ways about it,” she says. “We know on paper and in film and also in real life if people want to make a change, it’s a great way to do it.” This detail adds another layer to Esther’s character development.
Future Prospects for Esther
Absent from the interview are specific plans for season 3, but Tohn hints at potential exciting developments. “I just want to do what I want to do,” she says. “This has nothing to do with Esther.” Speculation includes a possible career pivot or a deeper dive into Esther’s background, suggesting that her character’s journey is far from over.
“Nobody Wants This” continues to captivate audiences with its blend of humor and heart. Jackie Tohn’s performance as Esther Roklov has been central to this success, making the second season an eagerly anticipated event for fans of the show.
