The stars of Stan’s critically acclaimed comedy-drama Bump have revealed why the show is such a success ahead of the release of season four.
Nathalie Morris, who plays the central character of Oly, told Daily Mail Australia she believes it’s a hit because it ‘resonates with so many people’.
‘It’s a very uplifting show and very Australian to be make the best of a bad situation. I also think a lot of people in Sydney recognise their home in the show,’ she said.
‘There are also heaps of characters that a lot of people can resonate with.’
Nathalie’s co-star Carlos Sanson Jr, who plays Oly’s boyfriend Santi, agreed, adding: ‘I think because life has bumps, people resonate with that.’
The brand new season of Stan Original Series Bump premieres Boxing Day, only on Stan. Every episode of seasons one, two and three are now streaming only on Stan.

Ricardo Scheihing Vasquez, who also stars in the series as Matias, said the film’s filming location of inner west Sydney helps.
‘You are used to seeing New York or LA but all of a sudden you’re in Sydney. A lot of people are really attached to the inner west,’ he explained.
‘The characters are also very real, raw and there is no hiding. Personal relationships breaking down and teenagers growing up, and things that happen in real life.’
Meanwhile, Paula Garcia, who plays Rosa Hernandez, said she thinks viewers see themselves in at least one character from the series.
‘Every person can identify with at least one or many characters,’ she said.

‘Many people see themselves. It’s also quite different, very woke, very feminist and very modern.’
The new season will be set two years after series three ended, and will focus on Santi and Oly raising their seven-year-old daughter.
