She was honest while talking about the show and its response as well. According to her, her experience was like:
“It’s been really fun. It’s the first time in my career I’ve had people come up to me on the street, and I think they’re so loving and happy to see me which I think is a great testament to that particular role. I always worry about that day when I’ll play a horrible murderous villain, and people on the street will have a little different reaction to me.”

When Breeda Wool was asked about her character on UnREAL, she explained how she made her own deep research and came to play the role of ‘Faith’.
She said:
“When I was up in Vancouver, we found a whole bunch of YouTube videos. I did a lot of my own research. There’s a really cool documentary called L Word Mississippi. It’s not a lot of fun stories. It was a lot ofpeople having to go against the grain of basically every fiber of their community. I think in my personal life – my parents were academics, I lived in New York City, I lived in LA – I think that LGBT issues were very different for me.”
Breeda as a lesbian in UnREAL
Breeda also talked about her role as a lesbian in the show. She described what it was like the news about the recent religious freedom passed thereafter playing a lesbian character from Mississippi.
She said:
“I don’t know. I just did this movie, AWOL at Tribeca, and there’s this topic in that film about access to dialogue. And something that I learned from L Word Mississippi, there’s this idea that if you’re going to talk about LGBT issues, you have to have this rhetoric and this dialogue and this education. And I feel like this legislation being passed in places like Mississippi, there is a deficiency of dialogue. Conversations and people getting out there and the support from the entertainment business hopefully will have some reverberation. Maybe people in Mississippi will watch UnREAL, and that’s all I can do is to tell stories so that people become exposed. Because I feel like exposure is a way to create change.”
As Wool’s character was found an accepting community in The Faith Diaries. She explained her experience about being able to tell a story that shows inclusion in both sexuality and religion.
She continued:
“I think a large part of the south, not just in Mississippi, is very influenced by people’s Christian beliefs. And to be able to tell a story about one person’s relationship to God and their relationship to love and discovering that those two things are not at odds, that love is something beautiful in the eyes of God and not something that is condemned in your heart, is a revelation. And that’s what The Faith Diaries is about. It’s a story about the love someone has for God and the love they have for a human being and how those things are not at odds.”
