Stars Kennedy McMann and Scott Wolfe explain who the new Nancy Drew is
This ain't your grandma's Nancy Drew...but that's not at all a bad thing.
"I think what we're seeing is a young woman who is grappling with an extreme loss of a parent, and the loss of the future that she had depended on having because of her mother getting sick. Her college applications fell through, she decided to stay home," McMann explains."We're seeing her desperately lonely, vying to fill that void with something, and I think if that's not relatable, I truly don't know what is.
"What life looks like for an 18 year-old in 1938 is quite different than it looks in 2019, so this show embraces what it looks like now," Wolfe explains.
