Nicole Beharie is opening up about her time as the lead, Abbie Mills, on Sleepy Hollow, revealing that what happened is “really interesting,” especially in the climate we’re in now.“We had a lot of things happen that paralleled the conversations that are happening in this moment,” Beharie, 35, told the Los Angeles Times in a new interview.The actress, who is now promoting Miss Juneteenth, exited the show in 2016. Three years later, she revealed that she left because she was battling an autoimmune condition.“My co-star and I were both sick at the same time but I don’t believe that we were treated equally,” she told the San Diego Tribune in another interview.
