Sofia Carson Opens Up About Her 'Perfectionists' Audition

This week kicked off with the big announcement that Sofia Carson was the first new actress to be cast in The Perfectionists!

Now, the actress is opening up about her audition process and how it feels to be part of the Pretty Little Liars fam.

“I told [Marlene King] that I was just the biggest — the biggest — fan of Pretty Little Liars,” she recalls of her audition. “I was obsessed with it — as so many of us were. It was such a phenomenon, so to be part of that legacy is truly an honor.”

She adds, “When I found out [that I got the role], Marlene called me last Monday and she was like, ‘Guess what? You’re my new Pretty Little Liar,’ and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh! That is the coolest thing! I will never ever get used to hearing that — ever.’”

As for what Sofia can tell us about Ava, it’s very, very vague.

“We have secrets that we have to keep here,” she teased. “I can say that not everything is as it seems with her. That’s all I can say.”

The Perfectionists will air on Freeform.
