Fringe's Jasika Nicole promises we'll learn about Astrid. Next year
Jasika Nicole, who plays Astrid Farnsworth on Fox's sci-fi series Fringe, told SCI FI Wire that the show's writers have promised to explore her character's backstory in future episodes—though likely not before the end of the first season. Astrid is an FBI agent who works as Walter Bishop's (John Noble) lab assistant and usually serves basic mechanical functions like hooking up electrodes and monitors.
"They've been working on that for a really long time, and they want to make sure that it's perfect," Nicole said in a phone interview last week. "That's why we haven't seen it yet. So I'm hoping that it's going to come in season two. We will not get that episode in season one, but I'm pretty sure that it will happen in season two, and I can't wait to find out what's in it, let me tell you."
Nicole chatted more about her character's backstory and the upcoming season finale. The following Q&A features edited excerpts of our exclusive interview with Nicole. Fringe airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT. (Possible spoilers ahead!)
