  • Female Speaker: So is this your first Comic-Con?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: Yeah this is my first Comic-Con ever.

  • I'm very excited to be here.

  • Not sure what to expect. So far I thought a small child was in my

  • way but it turned out be an RTD2 cruising by so.

  • Female Speaker: That's pretty cool. Marie Avgeropoulos: Yeah.

  • Don't know what to expect. Female Speaker: Have you been on the

  • floor and looked at all the costume and stuff like that?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: I haven't. We're doing all the press first and then

  • we haven't even headed in to the main mothership yet so looking forward to it.

  • Female Speaker: Would you ever come and dress up as anything?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: Yeah. I mean I love playing dress up.

  • It sounds like fun. It's like Halloween every day around here

  • so you know Wonder Woman would be cool yeah. Squeeze into that.

  • That'd be fun.

  • Female Speaker: So let's talk about The 100s. Can you talk a little about your

  • character and what she's up to in the show?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: The 100 is set 97 years after the earth was destroyed by

  • a nuclear apocalypse. I play Octavia Black, one of the 100,

  • one of the juvenile offenders and her crime was just simply being born in blasphemy.

  • Due to population control you're only allowed to have one child.

  • I was the second so naturally I had to be hidden under the floor boards and my

  • mother was executed when I was found and I was sent to jail so naturally I got

  • a little bit of a chip on my shoulder.

  • Female Speaker: I would be pissed too. Marie Avgeropoulos: Yeah.

  • I'd be pissed. Totally.

  • Female Speaker: And finally what was your most memorable moment of being - of

  • shooting the pilot?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: My most memorable moment. It was all a lot of fun because I got to

  • go back up to Canada. I'm a Canadian gal so it's great.

  • I got to go hang out up there to do the shark scene.

  • To jump in a glacier fed river.

  • It's great. You don't even need coffee when you're

  • jumping into to temperatures like that. Ping.

  • Awake. Female Speaker: Was the water really cold?

  • Marie Avgeropoulos: For sure. Yeah.

  • Fresh. Let's use the word fresh. Yeah.

Female Speaker: So is this your first Comic-Con?
