Anne Winters Loves That '13 Reasons Why' is Pushing Boundaries
Anne Winters is opening up about joining the cast of 13 Reasons Why.
The 23-year-old actress, who you may have seen on Zac and Mia recently, will be in the upcoming second season of the Netflix show.
“She has some things going on with Bryce and Jessica,” Anne revealed to NKD Magazine about her character. “I think people might have their reservations about her at first but she’s a very fun and likeable character. The second season definitely explains a lot of unanswered questions from the last season and will actually give fans a lot more backstory about the different characters. Most importantly, it’s still going to keep its core message about shining light on depression and suicide prevention.”
Anne also talked about how it felt like home, even though she was joining in the second season. “Everyone there is there for a purpose and everyone is a family,” she said. “The cast is amazing and we all get along so well. I remember being so excited � and then so nervous � to start working there but it’s just been great; the 13 Reasons Why set is literally home for me.”
As for what drew her to the role and the show, she dished, “I think it’s one of the only shows that’s not afraid to push the limits and break all the boundaries; I think that’s so important when it comes to telling a story. We can all choose to live in an ‘ignorance is bliss’ world, but it’s better to be aware and pay attention and know that the way our words and actions affect people are real.”
