Its a tough life for Sutton Fosters character Liza on Younger. At the end of season two, the wannabe 26-year-old had not one, but two attractive men vying for her affections. Sure, she has to deal with the struggle of constantly deceiving her friends and colleagues by pretending to be years younger than she is, but when the two men fighting over you are Nico Tortorella (Josh) and Peter Hermann (Charles) its hard to feel too badly for her.
As Tortorella pointed out in this video interview from ATX Television Festival in Austin last month, she gets to play with both of us.
Throughout the interview, Foster, Hermann, and Tortorella discuss their characters love triangle theyre not a thruple, theres a difference and what qualities each man has to offer Liza.
So who is right for Liza? Well, Josh represents freedom and the unexpected and its a little more dangerous and fun, according to Foster, but then Charles has the stability and maturity factors going for him, and the fact that the two meet on an intellectual level (or, in the words of Tortorella, They both read books).
Regardless of who wins Lizas heart, the shows stars are enjoying the ride. When in life has this ever happened to anyone? Foster questions, while Tortorellas sheepish response suggests hes not wholly unfamiliar with such romantic entanglements. Its not a clear-cut thing, she says. Its super complicated and thats what makes great TV.
