Check out this brand new interview with Cristine Prosperi about her new show Open Heart!
The 21-year-old Degrassi alum stars as the bright and gossipy Mikayla in the show that follows 16-year-old Dylan Blake (Karis Cameron), the rebellious daughter of a fractured family of doctors, as she uses her stint as a youth hospital volunteer to secretly investigate the disappearance of her father.
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:

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.
