Selena: ‘Obviously, I want to transition into film, and this is taking baby steps to where I want to be.‘ Selena played two different characters and had to learn two different British accents, one for the real Cordelia and another for the impostor, Grace. ‘Accent training was hardest thing on top of learning lines.’ She reported to the set in Budapest, Hungary, two weeks early for voice training.
