Actors open up about The Chi season 7

Season seven stars Hannaha Hall and Jason Weaver, who play the characters of Tiffany and Shaad, respectively, recently opened up about their character arcs on the upcoming season of the show in an exclusive interview with icecreamconvos.com. Speaking about the intense experience of portraying Tiffany on the latest season of the show, Hall revealed:

"I never experienced grief from someone I was intimate with like that, so I felt a responsibility to tell that story truthfully, It was easier to detach… but I still struggled. I wanted to do it right for the people who’ve been through this kind of pain. People are always asking about Rob—like, ‘Girl, you outside and Rob’s still on the porch!’ I’m just excited for fans to (hopefully) get some closure and see how Tiffany deals with it all. And I want to see how the audience responds to the new characters and the new energy this season brings."

Similarly, Weaver remarked about his character of Shaad:

"Shad has heart. He’s loyal. But he self-sabotages.That’s rooted in trauma and insecurities—and we explore that this season in a real way."
