In a recent interview with Deadline Stana Katic talked about the upcoming eighth season of Castle, the future of the show and her summer projects.
In the interview the actress revealed that she will take on another role on the show.
"In addition to playing the female lead opposite Nathan Fillion, Katic has added a new role on Castle as part of her new contract: a producer." She also shared some insights into the events of the contract negotiations earlier this year.
"Behind the scenes, things weren’t as dramatic," Katic says. "For me it wasn’t necessarily down to the wire, I didn’t really start speaking about that until after we had wrapped the (7th) season. A lot of the discussions were happening while I was filming The Rendezvous, so I let my reps handle. It went rather quickly in the end."
