Melissa George, who plays Margot Fox in the Apple TV+ drama series The Mosquito Coast, thought for a moment when I asked her a couple of months ago what interested her in taking on this role and this project. On paper, the show is more or less a family drama, but it's wrapped up inside of ... well, of something else entirely. And come this Friday, Season 1 of the Apple series will conclude with its final episode, ahead of the announcement that Apple shared on Tuesday that The Mosquito Coast is coming back for a second season.
“When you get a script saying this is the story of a family -- a mother, father, teenage daughter and a teenage son -- you think it’s a family drama,” George told me. “You imagine they have dinners, they go on vacations. But I was like, oh my gosh, it’s the Foxes that are escaping America and consumerism and capitalism. And they’re going way down south in search of this Shangri-La, this beautiful new way of life with new rules and no technology. And I thought THAT was excellent."
