Check out a short roundup of what was said during the panel.
Dockery on imagining being parent to a 16 year old: It was easy for us to become a family on set. We all had a lovely time together despite intensity of subject matter. We all bonded quickly. #DefendingJacob #TCA20

Michelle Dockery says she was drawn to her character in #DefendingJacob because she was very different sort of character than she'd played before. #TCA20 #AppleTV

Michelle Dockery says it always starts with the writing for her – she likes this genre. She liked that it becomes so much more about the characters than the whodunit. She liked examining how she'd react as a parent to this situation #DefendingJacob #TCA20

Dockery liked that Laurie Barber was different from any character she's ever played. She likes playing an American and doing accent. Chris Evans loved doing #KnivesOut and #DefendingJacob back to back and being home in Boston. #TCA20
