Actress Jane Levy on Alternate Realities and ‘Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist’
As she shoots season 2, the star of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist talks alternate realities, female role models and the magic of human connection.

Jane Levy is currently living in an alternate universe: “This very strange swirl of radically different and extremely familiar,” she says. The California-bred actress is shooting Season 2 of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist for NBC in British Columbia, where the entire province, according to a recent Instagram post of the actress on a ferry, has had just about 13,000 COVID-19 cases total. And—spoiler alert!—the TV show takes place in a pandemic-free world.

“It feels somehow extremely normal and familiar, and at the same time very foreign and surreal,” says Levy, who turns 31 at the end of December and plays Zoey. “When we are shooting, I am no longer existing in a pandemic, so I’m sort of shot back into this different reality. Off set I’m back.” COVID has warped all of our worlds, even for an actress accustomed to taking on disparate roles. “At home watching TV, when I see characters hug each other, I’m like, ‘Oh no! You’re not supposed to do that!’” Levy says, laughing. “I’m not doing that in real life, but in fake life… yeah, it’s bizarre.”
