In the final season of WondLa, Eva is on a mission to save her home and the forest, even if means risking it all. Though out her journey of getting back the Heart of The Forest, she makes new allies, has to say hard good-byes, but above all, she’s living in her purpose.

WondLa’s voice casts includes Jeanine Mason (“Roswell, New Mexico”) as Eva, Emmy Award winner Brad Garrett (“Everybody Loves Raymond”) as Otto, Gary Anthony Williams (“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows”) as Rovender, Alan Tudyk (“Resident Alien”) as Cadmus Pryde, John Ratzenberger (“Toy Story”) as Caruncle, John Harlan Kim (“The Librarians”) as Hailey, Ana Villafañe (“Castro’s Daughter”) as Eva 8, Peter Gallagher (“The O.C”) as Antiquus, and many more. New cast members include Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award nominee Shohreh Aghdashloo (“House of Sand and Fog”) as Darius and Arius, and Maz Jobrani (“The Axis of Evil Comedy Tour”) as Zin.

I talked to Jeanine Mason about what she learned while voicing Eva and which scene should would have loved to act out in real life. We also talked about how Eight was able to effect Eva’s optimism and why Rovi still encouraged their relationship even though Eight had animosity toward him. We also talk about which chapter was the hardest for Eva to say goodbye to.

WondLa is now streaming on Apple TV +.
