Came across a sweet NYPost blurb about Olivia and “What Goes Up” which moves into nationwide release on friday!
Why We Love Her: Thirlby maintains a desire for audiences not to “look at me as a teen actress — I crave to be taken seriously. I trained in Shakespeare, and that’s all comedy, even when it’s tragedy,” she says. “But you’re not going to catch me in Not Another Teen Movie 2.” With her career choices thus far, Thirlby has definitely earned the respect, and the laughs, she’s looking for.
