Jodie’s casting was particularly exciting for George, who had written Melantha as a black woman but settled for a white, blonde female on the novella’s cover.

“I said, ‘This is wrong, you should change it,'” he remembered telling his publisher. “And to my discredit, and something I was a little ashamed about for many years, I don’t think I protested hard enough when the editors back in the early ’80s said, ‘Well, do you want your book to sell?’… I gave in. I stopped protesting.”

Jeff revealed why Jodie was the perfect choice to play Melantha. “She is smart and strong and incredibly powerful, and that’s what we wanted as Mel,” he shared. “The luxury of adapting characters that George created is they’re so well-defined, and so it’s easy to get actors excited.”
