Rose McIver: 'Flowers in the Attic' Sequel Star!

Rose McIver has landed the lead role in the upcoming sequel to Lifetime’s Flowers in the Attic!

According to THR, the 25-year-old New Zealand native will play Cathy Dollganger in the Petals on the Wind follow-up, taking over for Kiernan Shipka, who played the younger version of the character.

Petals on the Wind follows the lives of the three Dollganger daughters, now young adults, trying to shake off the legacy of their mother’s abuse.

Their efforts are marred by lingering guilt and present tragedy. Dogged by disaster, Cathy (McIver) ultimately concocts a scheme to avenge herself on her mother.

Filming is expected to begin soon. Congrats, Rose!
