Hannah Einbinder ships Ava & Deborah: A Heartfelt Connection

Hacks star Hannah Einbinder recently appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and opened up about the fan frenzy surrounding the show’s characters, Ava and Deborah. Einbinder plays Ava Daniels, a young comedy writer who teams up with the legendary stand-up Deborah Vance, portrayed by Jean Smart. Fans are rooting for a romantic connection between the two characters, and Einbinder addressed this topic on the show.

She expressed her gratitude for the fans’ enthusiasm and made it clear that she’s on board with their desires. Despite the fan fiction fantasies, Einbinder acknowledged that it’s unlikely to happen in the show. She shared a humorous story about fans’ persistent requests for the characters to kiss, even in unrelated social media posts.

Interestingly, Mark Indelicato, who plays Deborah’s assistant on the show, also chimed in, showing his support for the Ava and Deborah ship. While there was a brief hint of a love story between the characters in a dream sequence from season one, Einbinder hinted that fans might have to keep dreaming for now.

The fourth season of Hacks is set to premiere on April 10, so fans will have to wait and see where the Ava and Deborah storyline goes. Make sure to tune in to find out what surprises are in store for these dynamic characters.
