This week, Tommy is joined by actress Anna Cathcart, star of the #1 smash-hit series XO, Kitty on Netflix. The series has taken over the world, first appearing in Netflix’s Top 10 in over 90 countries when it debuted. XO, Kitty is a spin-off of the streamer’s wildly popular franchise, To All the Boys I've Loved Before, which was based on the bestselling young adult trilogy. The series is often praised for unpacking issues that are top of mind for teens today. Everything from self acceptance to classism, to sometimes complicated relationships with parents to discovering one’s sexuality and more. Today, Anna opens up about how it feels to open up Netflix and see her face in the number one spot on the charts, the best and most challenging parts about growing up in the spotlight, the best advice she got from friends and co-stars Lana Condor and Janel Parrish, if she reads the fan edits and comments when a new season of her show drops, why she was nervous diving into some of the emotional and vulnerable scenes this season, what exploring Kitty’s sexuality means to her, if she is happy with how Season 2 ended, what it’s been like working with co-star Sang Heon Lee, what she wants to see happen in Season 3, if she views herself as successful after working in Hollywood for most of her life, what her biggest dream project is, how XO, Kitty almost was an entirely different concept, and so much more.
