Actor Samantha Aucoin talks with Jesus Figueroa, of ThisFunktional.com, about ASTRID & LILLY SAVE THE WORLD.
“Astrid & Lilly Save the World” is a show is for anyone who ever felt like they didn’t belong, which, as it turns out, is everyone. Themes include friendship and trust, growing up, self-acceptance, finding yourself, and the nostalgia of adolescence and pop culture.
“Astrid & Lilly Save the World” follows high school outcast BFFs Astrid and Lilly, who accidentally crack open a portal to a terrifyingly quirky monster dimension – making high school even more complicated. It's up to them to vanquish the creepy creatures and save the world, becoming the badass heroes they were meant to be. That is, if they can survive the horrors of high school.
In Samantha's first lead role, she plays Lilly Fortenberry, the counter-balance to Astrid. Sweet-natured, kind and romantic, Lilly shares Astrid's passion for sleuthing and adventure. Together, they are more than best friends – they are soul mates in their battle against the bullies, jocks and mean girls of Pine Academy. And they’re comrades in arms in the battle to save the universe… and survive their junior year.
