After more than a decade, Cierra Ramirez is getting ready to say goodbye to Mariana Adams Foster.
The role not only helped launch her acting career when The Fosters debuted in 2013, but also opened the door for opportunities behind the camera. Ramirez has served as an executive producer on the spinoff series Good Trouble since it launched.
It only makes sense that, before the series wraps, Ramirez would don yet another cap on set: director. Ramirez makes her directorial debut with Tuesday’s episode, titled “Party of One” — an opportunity she told Deadline she’s been chomping at the bit for.
“I’ve always been super enamored by what happens behind the scenes or behind the camera, just as much as I am passionate about being in front of the camera,” she said.
She spoke with Deadline in the interview below about stepping into the directors chair for Season 5, as well as reflecting on Mariana’s journey in both The Fosters and Good Trouble over the past 10 years.
DEADLINE: What inspired you to take on directing this season?
CIERRA RAMIREZ: It’s something that I’ve always been really interested in, growing up on set. I’ve always been super enamored by what happens behind the scenes or behind the camera, just as much as I am passionate about being in front of the camera. So, growing up on The Fosters and Good Trouble, I was always in video village just picking the directors [brain] and asking them questions and talking about camera lenses, asking them just everything under the sun. I was super, super interested in that. After shadowing a couple times, they threw that out there and asked me if I wanted to do it, and it was just an absolute dream come true. I had so much fun.
