Summer Bushill as Margo.
Harry Potter for adults? With levitating sex? Twenty-somethings at a secret college for magic party like any other students but with something extra. Syfy’s new fantasy series The Magicians started filming in metro Vancouver on August 4th, after shooting its pilot late last year in New Orleans. Based on books by Lev Grossman, The Magicians follows Quentin Coldwater (Jason Ralph) as he leaves Brooklyn to attend the Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy in upstate New York where he and his friends learn how to practice magic and then travel to the magic land of Fillory. Other Physcial Kids include Quentin’s friend Eliot (Hale Appleman), Alice (Oliva Taylor Dudley), Julia (Stella Maeve), Margo/known as Janet in books (Summer Bishil) and Penny (Arjun Gupta). Among their teachers are Dean Fogg (Rick Worthy) and Professor Sunderland (Anne Dudek). Other characters: Eliza the paramedic (Esme Bianco) and Penny’s love interest Kady (Jade Tailor). I saw an earlier scene with Dean Fogg (Rick Worthy) in Gastown’s Trounce alley and then this one with what looks like Alice (Olivia Taylor Dudley) and Margo(Summer Bushill).
