Can you tell us a little bit about your character on the show?

Raven Reyes is basically a sassy, badass, genius, McGyver of the 100. A zero-g mechanical engineer by trade, but her expertise has reached far and wide over the last four seasons. She is selfless, strong and a bit too hard on herself, but a true warrior.

Are there are spoilers for die-hard fans?

Of course, there are. But I could never reveal them. ;)

Are you a Syfy geek or just a lover of movies?

I enjoy Syfy—The Matrix, LOST and Black Mirror are some of my all-time favorites, but I do love all genres in general. I could never restrict myself when it comes to film.

What is your favorite movie of all time?

The Labyrinth.

What was the very first movie or tv show you ever watched or remembered?

My Little Pony or I Love Lucy—my mom's favorite! [caption  Young Hollywood Actress Lindsey Morgan // CW’s The 100 cover Ouch Magazine: Foodie Issue"

Who inspires you to make art and work as an actress?

So many great artists out there, but Meryl Streep and Daniel Day-Lewis have always been my favorite.

What would be the most exciting thing you have done so far? In general? Take my first motorcycle lesson.

Where is your favorite place to visit?

I love Barcelona and Tokyo.

Where haven't you visited that you would love to?

Egypt!  

What secrets about you that your fans would be surprised to know about?

I had stage fright up until 21!

What is your favorite food and why?

Ice cream, which is now froyo for health reasons. I love the cool texture.

What do you have in store for 2018?

Season 5 of The 100 filming and I am looking to direct my first project. A short I have been writing.

Where can fans reach out to you?

Twitter or Instagram is the best place to get ahold of me. I cannot always respond but I see a lot of it!

Do you have any last words?

Thank you! Find me on Instagram and Twitter @linzzmorgan and check out The 100 on the CW and Netflix!
