Interview: Anna Cathcart Talks To All the Boys Spin-Off XO, Kitty and Her LEGO DOTS Collection
Best known for starring as Kitty Covey in the To All the Boys movie trilogy, 19-year-old Anna Cathcart is back with a few surprises: a spin-off of the beloved teen rom-com and a new partnership with LEGO DOTS.
Netflix’s To All the Boys is based on a series of novels by Jenny Han and follows the sweet Lara Jean Covey and her coming-of-age journey through high school and romance. Cathcart portrays the lead’s sister, who is a fireball of wit and good vibes—a role she’s played since 2018.
In March 2021, it was announced that Kitty would be receiving spin-off treatment by the streamer and not too long ago, the actor took to her social media to share that they were filming in Seoul. «This show explores Kitty going to Korea for International School, and we see her in high school now, which is such a new environment because she was in middle school in the movies,» Cathcart shares with Game Rant. Han and Sascha Rothchild will serve as co-showrunners and will executive produce alongside Matt Kaplan of ACE Entertainment. The logline for the 10-episode show teases that Kitty will reunite with her long-distance boyfriend while studying in Korea and find out that love is more complicated than it seems.
