![]() And then we find confused that breaking her out.” And after all of that, she’s still going to try and get her point across. And I think that says something about her training, her programming. She’s still, after all this time, going to leave her with a bow. just told her that she’s leaving her there, so leaves Kory with a bow. You win the games with the parents, you never get in trouble, everybody loves the princess, but what about me?’ ![]() What does she want? What has she never had? That, that bow, is, ‘Take it, take it, go ahead. ‘I am who I am because of you.’ She bows to her sister at the end, to mock her. “And I want people to really pay attention to those words that she says. And this is the beginning of a really big lesson that is going to take us on a journey this season. She raises her voice, right? She’s had it, she’s at that point now where she has had it. ![]() I would use the word ‘crucial’ to Blackfire’s story. But what’s more interesting is that Blackfire finally gets to have the moment when she says that Kory needs to understand why she is the way she is.”ĭL: “Yep. They have that sibling rivalry and that influences Kory’s decision to come back and save her sister. ![]() SP: “It’s really interesting when Blackfire starts presenting Kory as the reason she’s the way she is. “Once she starts feeling what this feels like, Kory comes back in and says, ‘What are you doing?’ But like, ‘I’m taking you, let’s go.’ And then by the end, like, ‘Where are you taking me?’ She’s really confused as to what’s happening right now, her sister saved her? So I do believe she’s broken, she’s really broken, but you’re going to see what she does with it.” She’s not used to being helped, she’s not used to being saved, and so I think that Blackfire’s mind actually starts changing. She’s used to that state you find her in more than the state she leaves in. She’s used to being alone, she’s used to being in the pit, she’s used to being in trouble. In that moment her sister wasn’t there, there was nobody, she was alone, but that’s her normal state. “And so what ends up happening is the rage comes back. When Kory walks in, it’s ‘Komand’r’ it’s ‘Koriand’r,’ it’s real names. I think in the beginning, she starts that scene broken but she leaves with a different energy, right? And you see her on that cot, sleeping. Can you talk about where she is in her mind when we first see her? It almost feels like there’s a little manipulation going on even though she’s in her lowest moment.”ĭAMARIS LEWIS: “I think that’s a really great question. She’s got the whole mythology working against her, that she killed their parents and she killed Kory’s lover, but when we meet her in the episode she’s in a very different space. SARABETH POLLOCK: “I really love the dynamic between Kory and Blackfire in this episode. Titans season 3: Damaris Lewis says Blackfire is “used to being alone” In the first half of my two-part interview with Lewis, we talk about where Blackfire is when Kory finds her and how she finally has a chance to speak her truth to her sister. Lewis’ Blackfire might have had her powers drained, but Lewis infuses her character with strength and steadfast conviction, which plays out beautifully as Anna Diop’s Kory stands over her with a scowl of derision. She eventually decides to take custody of her sister herself, hoping that she’s made the right choice. Though the government is trying to protect the planet from Blackfire and her power, Kory realizes she can’t leave her sister locked up no matter how much she wants to turn her back on her. She and Gar find a hatch that leads deep underground, which is where they encounter Blackfire being held in a government facility. One of Kory’s “dreams” takes her to a field in the middle of nowhere. In “Blackfire” Kory and Gar discover that Kory’s strange sleepwalking episodes are the result of being called upon by her sister, Blackfire. I had a chance to talk to actor Damaris Lewis about her character after Titans Episode 304 dropped on HBO Max. Her reputation precedes her - she killed her own parents - so all it takes is mentioning her name to strike fear in the hearts of people who know her history.
