Wynonna Earp at SDCC: Katherine Barrell talks WayHaught, LGBT representation

At San Diego Comic-Con 2016, Wynonna Earp's Katherine Barrell (Officer Nicole Haught) discusses the Syfy series' LGBT relationship, the importance of positive representation, and how important it is for Nicole to not be defined by her sexuality.

[@frilly35]

Oh, my heart. "I want Nicole to be just like every other character on the show, who just happens to be gay." God Bless.

[@mythcr8ze]

"I hope you're wearing a bulletproof vest." "How does everybody know??" Lol the best!

[@annar3519]

I'm so grateful Nicole DID wear it. Lexa and Root's deaths were too heartbreaking to watch.

[@toulouseee5671]

I love Kat so much she just understands what the show and its characters and its LGBT representation mean to us and that is so wonderful

[@namasteanam7556]

I agree! We all need to show her the same love and respect back.

[@PGNZ]

My respect and admiration for Kat increase exponentially, with every interview where Kat has a chance to fully express her thoughts, opinions and feelings.

[@Tes73792]

Such a well-spoken woman, right. So eloquent.

[@jnnyrggtz1188]

I seriously can't get over how cute and pretty she is! Her eyes are breathtaking! 😍

[@kate_6436]

Agh I freaking love her so so much. She always speaks so articulately and amazingly and seems to completely understand why Nicole and Wayhaught are important. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Greenrhinestone29]

Officer haught I need you in my life please arrest me forever. Lol

[@BriannaTejada]

Can't wait to see her at ClexaCon!

[@amayabelle8678]

Kat is so woke, I love this cast so much 🙌🏽

[@sebastiansalem3484]

She's so adorable

[@bdtibbs1]

To me she is drop dead gorgeous and has a brilliant mind

[@oliviab7438]

I never thought about it but yeah, seeing Nicole reach her breaking point, either in fury or despair, would be interesting for sure.

[@lesdyxiatoo]

Olivia Birch I know this is old - but yes! Though reaching a breaking point due to fury and reaching a breaking point due to despair are two entirely different things but can both happen to someone. I feel like we've seen Nicole get pretty mad but to see her furious would be another thing entirely and pretty interesting. Though seeing her completely hopeless and desperate like *SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED SEASON 2 EPISODE 10 YET* Waverly was when everyone thought Nicole was going to die would be heartbreaking yet interesting because I wonder what could bring her to both points but the latter especially. I don't think Wayhaught MUST revolve around each other 24/7 but I would like to see Nicole care about Waverly like Waverly did for her in that episode which was one of the most powerful episodes imo.

[@oliviab7438]

Yeah, I was right there with Waverly in that episode. "Nooooo not Nicooooole" lol. I'm so excited to see where they take the characters emotionally next season.

[@lesdyxiatoo]

Olivia Birch same! I can't wait to see how the characters will be after so much that's happened. I also hope they touch on Doc no longer being immortal now because I'm just concerned his tuberculosis is back, unless it was cured by magic or something??

[@oliviab7438]

Oh yeah I never even thought about that! I wonder...

[@annifan16-26]

She is awesome

[@katebrousseau7890]

She said "the one hundred" ITS THE HUNDRED but it's ok. It's Katherine barrel

[@meyskesachoy4938]

Love you kat..❤❤🙏

[@acecentral3707]

Her engagement ring is very pretty

[@courtneyclark848]

Omg ok after watching this show for maybe a year I absolutely love all the characters, especially Waverly And Nicole.. omfg I can't say enough about em but watching Nicole aka Kat talking in her native language aka Canadian language and being American myself married to a Canadian (together 15 years legally married 7 years) omfg it was the most sexiest interview I've ever seen hands down, knowing her stage voice vs her Canadian voice.. her Canadian voice ultimately killed me...

[@juliajolielucerocaravaca9948]

Beautiful kat barrell ♥♥♥♥♥

[@robertallen6028]

i really enjoy the interviews with kat but ones like this have so much background noise it's hard to hear her answers.

[@gabrielles.]

She reminds me of Chyler Leigh

[@JL-bk9hz]

Gabrielle Jade I love them both

[@joelfinch2471]

National treasure Kat Barrell, ladies and gentlemen.
