America Ferrera On ‘Superstore’s Success: ‘The Show Is Striking A Chord That Already Exists’

America Ferrera and her co-star Ben Feldman happily got together while striking a pose at the 2019 Vulture Festival presented By AT&T at The Roosevelt Hotel on Saturday (November 9) in Hollywood.

The 35-year-old actress and the 39-year-old actor were joined at the event by Superstore castmates Lauren Ash, Nico Santos and Kaliko Kauahi as they talked about the hit NBC show’s success.

“The stuff that’s going on in the country, obviously being able to find ways to talk about that in a way that is still funny, that’s a dream,” Lauren said about Superstore tackling politics. “That’s the goal.”

“I think the important thing to remember is that this show wouldn’t exist and be successful if it wasn’t for the time we were making it in. We’re not starting these conversations,” America Ferrera added. “It’s like Lauren just said, laughter is recognition. We’re putting up a mirror to the conversations and the things people are just feeling in this time. The show is striking a chord that already exists in this time, and we’re at a point where all we can do is laugh.”
