Who is Zoé de Grand Maison, the actress who plays Agnes in The Summer I Turned Pretty?
You may recognise her as Evelyn Evernever in Riverdale or Gracie in Orphan Black – but she often gets mistaken for Stranger Things’ Sadie Sink
While Conrad has always struggled to share his emotions – even to his therapist – he finds comfort in Agnes and slowly opens up to her, especially regarding his feelings for Belly. Their close bond elevates Agnes to a pivotal character in the season, despite her smaller part in the original books.
Here is what you should know about the actress behind one of the season’s most compelling secondary characters.

The confusion mainly stems from their shared red hair, De Grand Maison told Teen Vogue. “But honestly, such a nice compliment,” she said. “She’s beautiful and seems so cool, but no, not the same person.”
She began acting in 2012
De Grand Maison began her acting career in 2012 as Tara in the medical series Saving Hope. She soon landed a recurring role in the thriller Orphan Black, portraying Gracie Johanssen until the series wrapped in 2017. A year later, she stepped into Riverdale to create one of her most recognisable roles.
