Actress Kennedy McMann said her show Nancy Drew is about reclaiming one's identity, and about mysteries that lie within. The actress, in a candid conversation, revealed a lot about her project.

How would you describe the relationship between Nancy and her father, Carson Drew?

Nancy's relationship with her father, where we pick up, is very strained. With the passing of her mother, he dealt with that grieving by delving into work and this other relationship, leaving Nancy completely alone and having to completely fend for herself in the face of losing her mother. And she harbours a lot of resentment about that. You know, she feels abandoned by him after being abandoned by her mother, in a very different sense. So, her feeling very alone in that and feel that that's entirely his fault that he's chosen to abandon her, leaves him in a very strange position, which is new for them because they're family. Growing up, Nancy and her father were always very close, so they're navigating this distance and not knowing how to bridge this gap because that bridge has collapsed between them.
