Season 6, Episode 56: Exclusive First Interview with Valentina Lucido (Abby Marsh) from “The Other People” (2025)
In Chad McClarnon’s psychological thriller, The Other People, terror does not announce itself with screeching violins or abrupt jump scares; it lingers quietly in the periphery, taking root in the fractured vulnerabilities of a blended family. At the emotional center of this escalating dread is Valentina Lucido, whose portrayal of Abby balances youthful fragility with a chilling, palpable sense of isolation. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Valentina to get a sense of the craft behind sustaining dread, and what it takes to find stillness amid the shadows. As she proved to be an outstanding and talented actress, she holds a compelling pivotal role in the film as we get to witness her sharp instinct for nuanced storytelling. I must admit that I was moved and very impressed with her paramount performance and that everyone should experience this movie in the theater or at home as soon as it becomes available. The film should be available on the major digital platforms where movies are purchased or rented, primarily Apple TV, Amazon Prime, and Google Play and other platforms to be confirmed at a later time.
