So it's even better. It's even better than you could ever imagine your life.

It's so much fun. I love her so much and I miss it like so much right now. I just want to get back to filming.

Mhm. Did you originally read for Cheryl or did you go out for other parts?

Yeah, I mean, I think they had me come in for Betty cuz they didn't have sides for Cheryl yet, but they always knew they wanted me for Cheryl. Like from day one our casting director and our show runner basically told me you have the job, we just have to convince everybody else. So, I mean, I look so much like her in the comics too and it it all makes sense.

So, we had Marisol in not too long ago and she talked about the moment where you guys were at the table read and found out, you know, who who did it who killed #who killed Jason Blossom? What was that moment for you? Like it's such a like a gut wrenching like thing to find out who murdered your brother. Like it's very important for her to know and understand.

Yeah. Sure.
