We got to speak with Kylie Bunbury from the new ABC Family Hit Show, Twisted, about her role and the upcoming season finale tomorrow night.
We asked how she got the role? She said she got the script outside of pilot season and was really intrigues by the dynamics between the three main characters.
Kylie tells us she went in to read for Lacy and Adam (Adam Milch, Executive Producer) liked me. She got a call back and then did a chemistry read with Maddie (Maddie Hasson, her co-star).
Kylie says everything happened very fast, like a whirlwind.
We asked Kylie what she liked about the character she plays and she told us she likes how she has a “hard exterior” but is nice when it counts and is vulnerable. There are reasons she is the way she is and Kylie says she likes how the character development is not all out in the open, which keeps the audience guessing about what she will do next.
Kylie also tells us that she is like her character and she makes some mistakes but is true to herself and a bit reserved in letting people into her life, but she shares that confidence and softness with her TV character as well.
Since the show is about high school and popular kids play a big role in the interaction of the three main characters and the mystery surrounding Avan Jogia’s troubled past, we asked about the importance of being in the “in crowd.” Kylie tells us that she realized when she got into the real world things aren’t as they seem, her character became popular because she didn’t want the issue that happened in the past when she was eleven to define her.
She does tell us that what she found to be true in real life is to be yourself, be true to yourself and know you worth, that’s what’s important. Kylie says to never compromise and keep your integrity, if you just want to fit in and you compromise to do so, you won’t feel good after.
Sorry – no spoiler here!You’ll have to watch the final season summer final episode entitled “Out With the In-Crowd,” airing Tuesday, August 27th at 9:00pm ET/PT on ABC Family.
Kylie and her cast mates go back to work in October on new episodes so don’t miss out on the season finale tomorrow night! Be sure to follow Kylie on Twitter! https://twitter.com/kyliebunbury
