Netflix’s The School for Good and Evil is finally here, and all eyes are on Sophia Anne Caruso, who struts her way through the entire movie. She plays Sophie in the movie, alongside Kerry Washington and more. Sophie is Agatha’s (Sofia Wylie) best friend, and they both are sent to The School for Good & Evil.
According to Hollywood Life, the book’s author Soman Chainani told Netflix that Sophie is a “nearly unplayable part – she’s a diva, a witch masquerading as a princess, at once supremely charismatic and an alluring narcissist, which makes you root for her but also hate her, like some renegade version of Regina George.” For those of you who don’t know, Regina George is the main antagonist and leader of The Plastics in Mean Girls. In the movie and musical, she is portrayed by Rachel McAdams who recently appeared in Doctor Strange 2, and Taylor Louderman, respectively. Regina is intelligent, manipulative, and capable of doing anything in her power to achieve her goals.
Sophia also shared her thoughts on the character, “there’s a bit of all of us in Sophie. She’s both good and evil. Granted, there’s a lot of darkness in her, but there’s also this goodheartedness that’s hiding deep down. And I found that a lot of people feel the same, myself included. She shows that we’re all a little good and a little evil and that’s okay.”
The School for Good and Evil is already the No. 1 movie on Netflix, even though it has only managed to get a 39% critics score so far on Rotten Tomatoes; that hasn’t stopped viewers from giving it an 89% audience score. It’s her highest rated movie according to audiences, and it just might be Caruso’s biggest role yet. Here’s what you should know about Sophia Anne Caruso.
