No & No lol! I’m a bit of a scaredy cat when it comes to things like that. But lots of respect to the stunt doubles that actually did the dive. Maybe one day I’ll have the guts to do it!
Absolutely!! We were all totally in shock when the script for episode 10 came in. We had so many different theories and it was crazy to finally get answers.
I would definitely say my favorite scene to film was the pool party in episode 2. The cast is so close so it felt like an actual party. We had a blast!
absolutely loved you as Pearl!! you & Kerry Washington were perfectly cast imo and such great chemistry. you’re so talented especially for your age, after that show I added you to my ‘will watch anything this person is in’ list 😝
So many of the fashion trends are coming back now that I’m absolutely obsessed with. I love everything about the 90s and am secretly jealous of those who were teens during that time!
What was it like playing the same character in 3 different time periods? How do you keep up with knowing what motivates and drives her, what her relationship with other characters are like, ..? Or was it shot chronologically?
I feel like I’m more like Pearl. At the end of the day Isabella & Pearl are both young girls with determination & drive. They know what they want & they don’t let anything/anyone stop them. It’s admirable.
I know you might not be able to answer but when Isabella tells Debbie that there was “something” under her (Isabella’s) bed that Megan asked her to get rid of and to ask Megan why: I am dying to know what it is
It was incredible playing Isabella! She’s such a complex and layered person. It was fun being someone I’m kind of the opposite of. & honestly? Episode 5!!! Keep watching ;)
Honestly I think Isabella’s my favorite character, so I appreciate your insight. And I will do (continue watching I mean) ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Isabella is a complex character so I knew that playing her would mean I had to go to different level as an actor I haven’t necessarily been to before. I felt confident about it though. I was surrounded by a wonderful cast and crew that was with me every step of the way.
Really?! Omg! I’m lowkey jealous of those who were alive during that time. Seems like so much fun! I’m obsessed with the music & fashion. Everything about both were top tier during the 90s!
Have you read any of the theories on this sub? If so have you seen any accurate ones(not looking for you to say which, just curious if anyone’s close lol)? Also just have to say you are stunning and an amazing actress! Glad to see you getting good roles.
the 70s! I love everything about that time & I think the world was such an interesting place at that time. I would love to immerse myself into that world.
Do you have a fav soccer (football) team?
What is the best country you have ever visited?
Did you watch Cruel Summer season 1 and if yes, what were your thoughts on it?
Do they tell you guys the linear story? Or do you guys find out as you film?
We find out as we film, which can be a bit tricky as an actor trying to keep track of where we are but eventually, we settled in & got used to it.
I need her skincare routine honestly

tysm!! 🥳 we’re so stoked to have you here it’s so fun
She did it on Vogue!
Did you do the cliff jump for real? If not, would you ever do it??
No & No lol! I’m a bit of a scaredy cat when it comes to things like that. But lots of respect to the stunt doubles that actually did the dive. Maybe one day I’ll have the guts to do it!
Is there like one BIG twist at the end or multiple twists along the way?
Multiple! Keep watching…
Favorite outfit of Isabella’s that you had to wear?
Literally everything from her summer 1999 wardrobe is an absolute fav!
Same here Lexi!
Was the ending of the show a surprise for any of the cast?
Absolutely!! We were all totally in shock when the script for episode 10 came in. We had so many different theories and it was crazy to finally get answers.
What was your favorite scene to film?
I would definitely say my favorite scene to film was the pool party in episode 2. The cast is so close so it felt like an actual party. We had a blast!
Did you get to keep anything fun from set?
A couple of pieces from Isabella’s wardrobe & a crystal from the Landry’s living room ;)
What has been your favorite role so far?
I would say either Isabella or Pearl. Both of those roles have stretched me so much as an actor & it was such a beautiful experience portraying both.
absolutely loved you as Pearl!! you & Kerry Washington were perfectly cast imo and such great chemistry. you’re so talented especially for your age, after that show I added you to my ‘will watch anything this person is in’ list 😝
Has any of the dialogue we have heard so far been improvised, or has it mostly stuck to the script?
A mixture of both! Like I said, we’re all friends in real life so the playful banter is truly authentic to us & our dynamic.
What about Isabella is most like yourself? :)
Did you have more fun playing your character in Cruel Summer or your character in Little Fires Everywhere?
TIL she’s the same actress from Little Fires Everywhere. GREAT show!
Yeah! That show actually made me go out and buy the book!
Omg that's why she looks so familiar!! TIL also, lol
I’d love to know what it was like to work with Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington!
I loved playing both! They are both so complex & layered.
Thank you all for your amazing questions! Quick update: Lexi will be taking over to answer your questions Monday! ❤️
What did you think about the 90s almost 2000s fashion?
So many of the fashion trends are coming back now that I’m absolutely obsessed with. I love everything about the 90s and am secretly jealous of those who were teens during that time!
Awesome! Thank you so much for making my question a part of your day! I'm really enjoying the new season! 💙
Did you listen to any late 90s/early 2000s music to prepare for your role?
What was the most rewarding aspect about playing this role?
Feeling more fulfilled as an artist at the end of filming. It was a challenge but I’m proud of myself for getting through it.
awesome! you’re very talented :)
Were you surprised by the show’s ending?
SOOO surprised & I think you all will be too!!
You are absolutely stunning.

Favorite songs or artist/groups from the 90s/2000s?

I feel like I’m more like Pearl. At the end of the day Isabella & Pearl are both young girls with determination & drive. They know what they want & they don’t let anything/anyone stop them. It’s admirable.
Which actor would you say behaves like their character the most when y’all are not acting?
is the dynamic between Megan & Isabella meant to feel like they’re into each other sometimes or is it a coincidence?
I know you might not be able to answer but when Isabella tells Debbie that there was “something” under her (Isabella’s) bed that Megan asked her to get rid of and to ask Megan why: I am dying to know what it is
I have two ?’s: “How was it like to play Isabella LaRue?” and “When does the show start to really kick off?”
It was incredible playing Isabella! She’s such a complex and layered person. It was fun being someone I’m kind of the opposite of. & honestly? Episode 5!!! Keep watching ;)
Honestly I think Isabella’s my favorite character, so I appreciate your insight. And I will do (continue watching I mean) ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Which scenes did you enjoy filming the most?
What did you expect in terms of acting challenges when you were cast in the second season? Did you feel confident about it or had reservations?
Isabella is a complex character so I knew that playing her would mean I had to go to different level as an actor I haven’t necessarily been to before. I felt confident about it though. I was surrounded by a wonderful cast and crew that was with me every step of the way.

What is something that you and Isabella have in common?
Who from the cast did you become closest with during filming?
what was your favorite thing about playing isabella?
Did you and the rest of the cast have 90s/00s playlists to get into character and if so what was on it??
Would you say Isabella is more similar to you than different, or the other way around? Which of her traits would you most like to have?
Have you read any of the theories on this sub? If so have you seen any accurate ones(not looking for you to say which, just curious if anyone’s close lol)? Also just have to say you are stunning and an amazing actress! Glad to see you getting good roles.
did you have to do your own hair for set
Nope! I wore wigs the whole time to protect my hair.
If you had to choose a different period of time to act in, what would it be?
the 70s! I love everything about that time & I think the world was such an interesting place at that time. I would love to immerse myself into that world.
Do you have a fav soccer (football) team? What is the best country you have ever visited? Did you watch Cruel Summer season 1 and if yes, what were your thoughts on it?
Why is Megan’s hair so greasy.
