Cristine Prosperi and Karis Cameron sandwich in Justin Kelly on the sofa in this shot from the recent issue of NKD mag.

The three stars of Nickelodeon’s new series, Open Heart, chatted up the show and dished on their characters. Check it:

Karis on Dylan: “Dylan very much wants to be her own person but loses a piece of her when her father goes missing. It’s [the hospital] the last place she wants to be. All she wants to do is serve her hours and solve the mystery.”

Justin on Wes: “His mouth gets him into trouble. He says the wrong thing at the wrong time and has to reel back from that. I love that the combination throws you off, but in an inspiring way.”

Cristine on the show: “You’re solving a mystery as the show goes on. It’s definitely a roller coaster of emotions.”

She enlists the help of her friends Mikayla (Prosperi) and the handsome charmer Wes (Justin Kelly) to start looking into her dad’s disappearance, unearthing a trail of clues that lead them to some very unexpected places.

We caught up with Cristine about her character, reuniting with fellow Degrassi alum Justin, and more. Check it:

Open Heart Premiere Episode Clip

JustJaredJr.com: Tell us about your character! She sounds very different than Imogen.

Cristine Prosperi: She is very different from Imogen. Mikayla is a fun, loving, girlie girl who becomes great friends with Dylan. They are partners in crime and go through tons of adventures throughout the season. Appearance wise, Imogen is quirky and zany while Mikayla is more fashionable and girlie. Another difference – Mikayla likes boys while Imogen was into the ladies.

Meet the cast of TeenNick’s new series, Open Heart!

The new show centers on 16-year-old Dylan Blake (Karis Cameron), who falls in with the wrong crowd, gets arrested, and earns court-ordered community service volunteering at Open Heart Memorial, the hospital where her mother and sister are doctors and where her grandparents are board members and benefactors.�

All Dylan has to do is follow the rules. The hospital is the last place her father was seen alive and while most people think it’s a straightforward case of abandonment, Dylan doesn’t believe that and sets out to prove something bad happened to her father. Putting her old delinquent skills back into service, Dylan and her new friends–the bright and gossipy Mikayla (Cristine Prosperi) and the handsome charmer Wes (Justin Kelly)�start looking into her dad’s disappearance, unearthing a trail of clues that lead them to some very unexpected places.
