Reunited with her 'Scandal' costars for 'Stars in the House' Wednesday, Kerry Washington said she'd be open to a movie version of the hit ABC show.
On Wednesday night, 2020 Emmy nominee Kerry Washington and the cast of ABC’s hit political drama returned for an episode of James Wesley and Seth Rudetsky’s “Stars in the House,” which has raised more than $400,000 for theDuring the livestream, Washington was joined by costars Tony Goldwyn , Bellamy Young , Jeff Perry , Kate Burton , Dan Bucatinsky , Norm Lewis , Katie Lowes , Guillermo Díaz , Cornelius Smith , George Newburn , Joe Morton and executive producer/director Tom Verica.
Shonda Rhimes’ “Scandal” starred Washington as a former White House communications director who launches her own consulting firm and manages various personal and political crises involving her D.C. clientele. The popular series ran for seven seasons from 2012 to 2018 and was nominated for six Emmys.
“It was a really coveted role,” Washington said. “There hadn’t been a Black actress as the lead of a network drama in almost 40 years, so Shonda really saw every Black actress between the age of, like, 18 to 74 at this point. ... “It was actually this very powerful moment for Black women in Hollywood because ... we knew how special this was. We knew that none of us had seen a role like this in our lifetime — and for us — and so there was really a sense of, like, ‘May the best woman win, and whoever gets it, we will all have her back.’”
