On FROM, Season 4, Episode 8 ‘Heavy Is the Head,’ Fatima notices more physical changes with herself in the aftermath of saving Kenny’s life from the monster. She’s willing to explore her newfound power, but others in town find it to be too much of a risk, including her husband, Ellis.

I talked to Pegah Ghafoori, who plays Fatima, about if Fatima is willing to sacrifice herself to save others, if the town if giving Fatima a fake purpose in order to hurt her, if Fatima and Ellis would last in the real world, who has hard it the hardest in town, and what the make-up process has been like the past few seasons.
