It was great not only to look back, but to get insight into their thought process in creating this iconic series.

The women of the 355 panel took questions from fans during their panel...and those fans turned out to be fellow cast members Sebastian Stan and Edgar Ramirez! Sebastian asked Jessica Chastain what it was like working with him again, this time on Earth (the last time they worked together it was in space on The Martian). Edgar asked about what kind of special secret agent skill the women would want to have. It was a special experience getting to see all these incredibly talented actors together on one panel.
