Filipino-British actress Eve Ridley says she initially did not know whether she would get a response after auditioning for a role in the TV series “Supergirl.” She describes going through multiple auditions and waiting for long periods before hearing back. Ridley then received a call confirming she had been selected to play Ruthye Marye Knoll, and she calls the moment “the best feeling ever.” She adds that the news quickly brings happiness and pride, though it takes time for it to fully sink in. After being cast, Ridley says she reads the “Supergirl” comics and conducts research about the character, describing the process as part of preparing for the role. Both accounts highlight her uncertainty during the waiting period and the excitement when she is officially informed that she has secured the part.
