Lexi Underwood Almost Quit Acting Before 'Little Fires Everywhere'

Lexi Underwood Almost Quit Acting Before 'Little Fires Everywhere'

Lexi Underwood almost gave up acting right before landing her role in Little Fires Everywhere!

The 16-year-old actress revealed that she wanted to pack up and go home instead of going to the audition for the show because she had just lost a different pilot.

“I was ready to pack up and go home. I didn’t want to do the audition for Little Fires…I’d been doing this for almost five years now. It’s been a journey. There’s been a lot of nos. There’s also been a lot of yeses,” Lexi told HarpersBAZAAR.com

She continued, “I’m not from L.A., I’m from D.C. It was that sense of missing home at that point. I was like, I don’t even know what I’m doing. My mom told me, ‘You’ve been wanting this audition for so long. Just go in and give it your all, and whatever happens, happens. And after, if you don’t book it and you want to go back home, then that’s totally fine.’”
