In City on Fire, the latest Apple TV Plus series to hit the streamer, New York is a city full of secrets. The show is a web of seemingly unrelated but interconnecting stories that span from the upper-class Upper East Side of New York City to the downtown squats of punk band members. The figure at the center of this web joining everyone together is Sam Yeung, played by Chase Sui Wonders (Bodies Bodies Bodies), an NYU freshman whose shooting on a summer night in Central Park kicks off the series' snowballing events.
For Wonders, Sam was a dream role. "It's such an engaging story and there are so many entry points to it, but specifically Sam – her character is so magnetic and so layered," she says. "Getting to cosplay as a cool, confident, free-spirited girl was the dream."
