‘The Fosters’ season 3 spoilers: How will the musical impact Mariana’s love life?
While Mariana may have something going on at the moment with Nick, there’s no denying the history that she has with Mat, and working with him in a romantic capacity in Brandon’s play is the sort of thing that could easily make some old feelings come back to the surface. This is something that Cierra Ramirez teases to be a big factor in some upcoming episodes in a new chat with TVLine on the subject:
“The two worlds have collided. She’s never had closure with her and Mat’s relationship. To be going through this whole process of being in a play with him where they’re [playing] love interests has been very hard for her. He’s never wanted anything to do with her since [their break-up], and that’s been really hard for her. But you see over the progressing episodes that there is this undeniable love that they have for each other. So to be portraying these characters [in R&J] that are so close to what they are — [Mariana and Mat] have this forbidden attraction to each other now that they have other people in their lives — it’s going to be hard. I’m excited to see how it all unravels.”
There is certainly still plenty of time this season for things to ebb and flow between the two of them, and they’re potentially not the only ones. We do still wonder what the impact of working on this musical will be long-term for Brandon, who has tried to move on from Callie … but doing a musical about forbidden love may not be the best way in which to do that.
