'The Perfectionists' PLL Spinoff Character List

With the Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists spinoff pilot episode set to be filmed in early 2018, casting is already underway to find six regulars who will star on the show along with PLL alums Sasha Pieterse (Alison DiLaurentis) and Janel Parrish (Mona Vanderwaal). TVLine got a character list for the six other regular characters that will be in the spinoff. While there are some of the same characters from Sara Shepard's book series The Perfectionists, it looks like the Freeform spinoff will make a few big changes.



Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists Character List:


CAITLIN MARTELL-LEWIS | The intelligent, motivated and easy-on-the-eyes daughter of two over-achieving mothers, one of whom is a United States senator, Caitlin is an expert at hiding secrets. She hopes to follow in her mother’s political footsteps — that is, if the weight of her own secrets doesn’t crush her first.

DYLAN WRIGHT | A prodigious cellist who used his passion for music to escape his small-minded hometown, Dylan loves his music almost as much as he loves his boyfriend, Andrew. (And even that’s up for debate.)

ANDREW | Dylan’s “nerd-chic” boyfriend is deeply committed to his architectural studies, spending what little free time he has cooking and being with Dylan.

AVA JALALI | A stylish trendsetter with a big personality, Ava hopes to have her own clothing line someday. But she has an edge over her fellow fashionistas: a brilliant technological mind, which she uses to blog and code. Just don’t ask her why her parents recently fled the country — it’s her one big secret.

NOLAN HOTCHKISS | A natural born leader, Nolan is the heir to his family’s empire. Though he puts forth the image of a golden boy, Nolan is actually a manipulator who uses his friends and family to maintain his image. Not a big fan of authority figures or the word “no,” Nolan isn’t used to losing.

JEREMY BECKETT | A handsome Brit with more abs than you can count with just your fingers, Jeremy is also described as “charming and witty.” He’s also an intelligent scientist working for Hotchkiss Industries.

This character list is pretty different from the book series. The Perfectionists book series focuses on five girls - Ava, Caitlin, Mackenzie, Julie, and Parker - who are all driven to be perfect no matter the cost. The girls think they have nothing in common, but they all hate womanizer Nolan Hotchkiss, who's done things to hurt each of them.

They come up with the perfect plan to murder Nolan. They'd never actually go through with it. But when Nolan turns up dead in the exact way they'd discussed, the girls suddenly become prime suspects in his murder. Only, they didn't do it. Unless they find the real killer, any one of them may be the next to die.

The pilot of Pretty Little Liars was pretty faithful to the book series written by Sara Shepard. The main characters accurately represented the written characters from the books. Although there were some plot differences, season one of PLL did an amazing job of bringing Rosewood and it's residents to life on screen.

What do you think of the changes already being made to The Perfectionists? Do you think the changes sounds great or do you wish they kept all the main book characters?
